Re: [Flashcoders] Skewing text
Hi Returning to this now as it seems simple distortion is not satisfactory and I do need to have real perspective. I have played a bit with Papervision and it's not too hard to render text with perspective. However the designs that I am working to require quite precise placement and orientation of the text. Using the distort class I could simply specify the 4 points of the plane in 2D space on the stage and render the text like that, but this is not the way Papervision works. My question is, is it possible to render a plane in true perspective just by specifying the 4 points in 2D on the stage? In Zeh's diagram (http://hosted.zeh.com.br/misc/perspective.png) he shows that you can't split the line 50-50 to get the 3D halfway point, is there a way of working out what the proportion would be? If so I want to ammend the distortImage class to take this into account. jake On 03/07/07, Jake Prime [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi JC Yes as Zeh has illustrated the Sandy distortImage class distorts, and does not create perspective.

Re: [Flashcoders] Backend compiled Java or scripted PHP?
Wow, this seems to be one of those topics where everyone has strong but differing opinions, Atila java over PHP. Just few points why: Nice comparative overview HermitIt seems to depend on what you will be using it for ultimately. BINGO, we have a winner folks... Ron, Eclipse, Spring, Hibernate, AXIS and Java is a pretty nice toolkit. I agree wholeheartedly, but is it the most productive way to handle the small stuff. I don't have the luxury of having server drones (apologies to the server drones) taming the backend, so quick and dirty is a development paradigm for me. Muzak Flash/Flex + Coldfusion + Flash/Flex Remoting. I've seen the big increase in traffic on all things Coldfusion, but I seemed to have missed the reason why (been under a rock). I usually try to avoid proprietory stuff when I can and have always ignored Coldfusion for it's limited hosting etc... I'll have to research what all the recent traffic is about and if there's a need to revise this opinion. Flashcoders has once again provided an interesting, informative, and balanced overview. What I get from it is, in general (with untold exceptions), - professional programmers in general prefer the structure of Java. The majority here. I've had enough formal training to appreciate this. - PHP seems to be preferred by the home grown just get it done programmers who are, like me, spawned by opportunities inherent on the internet. As a one man operation I sympathize - the dividing line seems to be scale. (How big is the project, how much traffic will it generate, how computationally expensive and or complex). There are many situations that don't affect the scalability or maintainability of a site, scripting is too useful a tool not to have available. That being said, while more complex things can and are built with PHP, there's a point at which the advantages of Java overcome it's disadvantages (taming tomcat, longer development times, etc...). The big question is where do you draw the line? Weldon Best is good. Better is best.

[Flashcoders] Casting to Array
I'm trying to do something like this:
if (a instanceof Array) {
doMyArrayFunction(a)
}
the doMyArrayFunction expects an Array object, so this throws an error. What
I would normally do in this case is cast the object to the class I'm
expecting, but unfortunately Array(a) doesn't leave a unchanged, as it would
with most classes, but returns [a] - the array gets nested.
Anyone have a suggestion as to how I can get around this? The only thing I
can think of is Array(a)[0], which seems a bit stupid.

Re: [Flashcoders] Backend compiled Java or scripted PHP?
Answering about where you draw the line: usually nowhere. The technology you'll use is decided upon your own skills/experience/existing assets and setup you have on the server. Key is interoperability. You can actually have a mixed PHP/Java solutions, and write C++ extensions for PHP. If it works, and the performance/features are sufficient for your task at hand, then it works, there are no other conditions and no hidden obstacles. All of these technologies scale with the proper architecture in place. - the dividing line seems to be scale.

shame to lose it for a little technicality. I like David's suggestion, which

Re: [Flashcoders] Incredible Crashing Flash
Funny, because the exact same thing happens on a PC, and it's been like this since forever: if you are testing on the IDE, your movie do a request, the server takes too long to respond, and you close the preview movie before the server replies, Flash crashes when the response finally arrives. I've seen this happening with normal queries, webservices, and socket queries. The crash doesn't happen on publishing, however; just after the preview is closed.

Re: [Flashcoders] Casting to Array
Danny,
The shortest way I found of doing it is:
var b:Array={arr:a}.arr;
i.e. make it a property of an object, then unbox it again.
Silly, but works syntactically. I'd love to see a shorter way.
In AS3, Array(x) as an array creator still exists - you get around it
using the new 'as' operator:
var b:Array=a as Array;

Re: [Flashcoders] [RESOLVED] Incredible Crashing Flash
Ok, I found it. Cedric asked if I had any server queries and I said 'yes', but dismissed that as the issue. I dismissed that as the issue because how I've seen that crash Flash in the past is that it fails to close the SWF if the query wasn't complete, and then took Flash down with it. Well in this case I had no problems closing the SWF. The query was not complete, but the SWF gets closed. Flash doesn't complain. And then eventually (after 45 seconds or so), Flash tries eat its own head then explodes. I'm assuming this is tied to the call finally failing...ungracefully. So for the record - that query-didnt-finish bug still exists! It just has different behavior than we're used to from previous Flash versions.

Re: [Flashcoders] Incredible Crashing Flash
Hi Jobe, I had a problem recently where I used a lot of bitmaps (developed on a PC). The presentation crashed consistently on a couple of macs, not any PCs though. In particular it seemed to be the new powerbooks. Oddly enough though the cheesegraters with the new intel chip played it fine. I turned out to be 1 tiny bitmap that must have been corrupt. I recreated it in photoshop and replaced it and all was well. it was a bitch to find. but the clue was that it crashed at the same point in the timeline every time. maybe this helps.

Re: RE: [Flashcoders] Casting to Array
David's suggestion doesn't actually cast to array, though -- it makes a shallow
copy of the array and returns it. This will lead you to many tricky bugs.
If you really *really* need type checking on arrays, make a List class to wrap
arrays and only use that.

Subject: RE: [Flashcoders] Casting to Array
As it's AS2, you might think about making it so
doMyArrayFunction will not expect an array, but will take anything:
class ArrayTest {
public function ArrayTest(a) {
trace(a[0]);
}
}
new ArrayTest([1,2,3,4]);
works fine.
Yes, but I'm trying to do things 'properly' :)
I've been quite enjoying the discipline of strong typing and it seems a
shame to lose it for a little technicality. I like David's suggestion, which
I'd imagine works pretty fast.
Thanks

Re: [Flashcoders] Casting to Array
Hi Danny,
its an annoying issue and a subtle difference between the flash ide and
mtasc as well.
When compiling in mtasc, Array(myObject) becomes a regular cast and not the
freakish thing its in the Flash IDE:).

RE: RE: [Flashcoders] Casting to Array
That is correct. If you need the reference to the actual array, then I would
consider using a class to help cast your data as suggested by others. But if
you just need the data and not the actual reference (meaning you don't need
to persist that data anywhere else), then my solution should be fine.
