[Flashcoders] RE: targeting classes in a loaded swf
Thanks a lot for your time Tyler Wright. That helped a lot! I have implemented your suggestion. singleton. everything is great. My controller loads in the swfs that make up the diff parts of the app. The only disconnect is that all swfs have to agree to implement their ui using ... for example the name 'obj'. var obj:Someclass obj = Someclass.getInstance(); then my controller can target that class in any swf by using the mc that it loaded the swf into and calling mc.obj.getInstance().doSomething(); or just mc.obj.doSomething(); Does that make sense or am I missing something? If the above does make oop sense I now have a controller that loads in swfs and can then create pointers, if needed, to the main UI object in each swf. The only problem I see is forcing the use of an agreed upon name. Thanks again!

- Modify a variable within a compiled SWF file.
- Generate list of classes and methods used in a SWF.
- Modify URLS for loadMovie and getURL calls.
- Reuse bytecode from a compiled SWF.
- General bytecode performance improvements.
- See what AS actually translates into.
There are lots of small and impossible tasks that Flasm can do that no other

[Flashcoders] Re: How to make a class instance self-destructible?
hello,
Objects cannot delete themselves, nor can they call another object to
delete
them because technically you're still in the same operation thread.
I dont see why its problem to have object and delete object in same thread?
Also I dont understand why function objects like onLoad which are inside
some reference are also not freed when parent object is?! I mean if foo is
not accessible why foo.onLoad is not freed automatically, you can not access
it anyway, even if flash is calling it somewhere for example (onEnterFrame)
it still should use parent object to access its children? Also, if they have
reference counting in place, they can delete object the moment its ref count
is zero, why wait for GC? Isnt GC responsible for deleting objects when they
go out of scope, why call delete at all (at least for local objects, or
objects that will anyway go out of scope)? Where can I read about all this
stuff, I am new to this topic, and all this seems to me not very logical (I
have lack of information)?
Thanks

Here is something more for you to chew on:
If you assign say an onLoad method to an object, and don't delete the
onLoad
before you delete the object, the onLoad method is orphaned and since the
reference to the object is gone, it does not get cleaned up by the garbage
collector, and remains in memory with no way to get to it.
For example (AS1 code used here):
foo = new XML();
foo.onLoad = function(valid) {
if (valid) {
// xml loaded successfully
} else {
// xml load error
}
}
If you:
delete foo;
the foo.onLoad method stays in memory.
You have to
delete foo.onLoad;
delete foo;
to really get rid of foo.
Objects cannot delete themselves, nor can they call another object to
delete
them because technically you're still in the same operation thread. It
has
to be done independantly outside the object you're trying to delete.
The way I get around this is:
xmlHolder = {};
var id = new Date.getTime();
xmlHolder[id] = new XML();
xmlHoLDer[id].onLoad = function(valid) {
if (valid) {
// xml loaded successfully
} else {
// xml load error
}
this.complete = true;
}
I assign a complete = true property. Then, I have my own little clean up
tool running, checking for complete xml loads:
for (var o in xmlHolder) {
if(this.xmlHolder[o].complete) {
delete this.xmlHolder[o].onLoad;
delete this.xmlHolder[o];
}
}
The clean up tool is running in a separate thread therefore it can delete
other xmlHolder without issue.

Re: [Flashcoders] where and how can I learn actionscript bytecode
Hi Boon,
Good luck with learning bytecode.
However, I suspect that the reason your first delete statement doesn't
work is because of the way flash's garbage collection works. When you
call delete on an object, it is marked for deletion by the garbage
collector. It uses reference counting to decide whether to actually
delete something, so I suspect that if you try to delete an object
from within itself, it most likely will not actually do so, until that
object has finished up. I'd say you should probably always try to
delete objects from outside of their own scope.
It's likely that if this is indeed the case, the problem will look
exactly the same at the bytecode level.
Hope this sheds some light on your problem,
Alias

RE: [Flashcoders] How to make a class instance self-destructible?
ps boon, one fast way to verify on windows:
- repeat your action 10 times in a for lus with the taskmanager open
If the memory you use is being recollected you will see your application
eat memory and release it, eat it and release it etc if not, it will just
be hogging memory until it hangs...
quick and dirty ;)

[Flashcoders] Writing data to object crashing browser
Hi I have built a game that seems to be crashing in Flash 8 intermittently
just as it writes a boolean property to a scene based object?
Has anyone else experienced this, its not happening in fp7 at all. Like I
say its intermittent and has taken me ages to track down.
I create an object which has scene based properties and a generic scene
state object in which to store the scene logic booleans,
so now and then when writing a boolean like
sceneState.extraData.seenVideo = true;
this is the class that creates the objects
class com.intel.logic.SceneState {
var name:String;
var swf_path:String;
// default fields
var done:Boolean = false;
var visits:Number = 0;
var displayName:String;
var xArrowPos:Number;
var yArrowPos:Number;
var extraData :Object;
function SceneState ()
{
extraData = {};
}
}

[Flashcoders] Q: Making a movie using Bitmaps and draw method
Hi
I want to create a simple app that allows the creation of 'recordings',
basically movies that are recordings of anything that might happen on the stage.
I'd appreciate any feedback on my basic logic which is as follows:
1) Create a 'snaphot routine whose only purpose is to create a collection of
'snapshot' bitmaps of the MovieClip we are recording
2) Create a 'makefilmstrip' routine whose purpose is to compose a 'filmstrip'
using the previously created bitmaps, one per frame, in a blank 'host'
movieclip
//BEGIN PSEUDO CODE
function snapshot(mc:Movieclip);
//create bitmap with unique name
//take snapshot of moviceclip passed in
uniqueBitmapname.draw(mc);
//store a reference to this Bitmap in an array
bitMaparray.push(uniqueBitmapname);
//continue until done, presumably controlled by another 'start and stop
recording function' controller
//when done call the 'make filmstrip' function
}
function makefilmstrip(){
//first attach Movieclip (our blank filmstrip) to stage giving it the name
'filmstrip'
//it has a stop action on frame 1
// step2: create empty movieclip within filmstrip giving it a unique name and
depth
//step3: attach previously created bitmap to this holder movieclip
//we reference these bitmaps throught the array created in the snapshot function
//not sure if it is possible to reference previously created bitmaps this way,
suggestions?
var mybitmapreference = bitMaparray[counter];//
uniqueholderMovieclip.attachBitmap(mybitmapreference);
//increment global counter
counter++
//increment frame in filmstrip , not sure if this is possible but we need some
way of advancing the frame in filmstrip
//so that the next uniqueholderMovieclip Movieclips are created on sequential
frames, does this make sense??
filmstrip.nextFrame();
//continue steps 2 3 till we run out of bitmaps
}//end makefilmstrip
//END PSEUDO CODE
Any feedback appreciated

[Flashcoders] floating point
Hi peeps,
related discussions have been on here before, but i didn't find a real answer.
Imagine this piece of code:
var i = 0;
onEnterFrame = function () {
i = i + 0.1;
trace (i);
if (i == 0.7) trace(here);
}
as you might expect, after running for 7 frames, it traces here.
However if you change 0.7 to 0.8, it stops working.
I assume this is to floating point math and rounding errors and stuff?
In what way can i check for equality to 0.7 then? With a bigger than,
smaller than construction?
This seems so weird to me...

Re: [Flashcoders] How to update components on stage?
Michael totally spelled out the problem. I have about 10 instances of the component on stage, every time I add a new inspectable attribute to the class, I have to replace them all, and swapping symbols won't work either. What a pain! - boon --- Michael Stuhr [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Eric E. Dolecki schrieb: Just replace the component on the Stage with the component with the changed inspectable params. edolecki but then you'd have to reposition - resize and what not ... wasn't there an extension ... no i believe not. See the 'problem' is, that if you've got a normal clip on stage, you'd select it's library item through property panel. but with components i believe you can't right ? It#s not THAT big deal, but it would be nice if we could. micha ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders __ Yahoo!

Re: [Flashcoders] output gone in flash 8?
Now if MM would add a few more options in that menu, and add a param to trace to set the level, we would be in all set...
