Hi Kerry
If your using D8, then you can add a timeout object that is persistant and
its owner being the audio controller object. That proceedure allows your
objects to recieve all of the prepareFrame, exitFrame, startMovie,
prepareMovie and other system level events. So in essence you could do
something like this... (Extreme Warning this is email lingo not certified to
work). The forget part may be wrong.. me apologies for making you RTM (note
no f :-))
property pSpecialTimer
on new me
pSpecialTimer = timeOut("theName").new(0, #someNonExistantHandler, me)
pSpecialTimer.persistant = true
return me
end new
on startMovie me
-- whatever Kerry wants to do
end startMovie
on stopMovie me
-- whatever Kerry wants to do
end stopMovie
on remove me
if objectP(pSpecialTimer) then
pSpecialTimer.forget()
end if
end remove
(Please note that remove is my custom destructor handler and its probably
all screwed up... try reading the lingo dictionary if you want to get even
more lost.
Sincerely
Mark
