RE: [Flashcoders] Delegate Scope Class Issues

You're calling it incorrectly. Delegate returns a Function that is invoked
on the object you specify. Here's the correct syntax:

class Mover
{

var button_btn : MovieClip;

function Mover() {
_level0.button_btn._alpha = 0;
init();
}

function init() {

var myTween:Tween = new Tween(_level0.button_btn, _alpha,
mx.transitions.easing.Elastic.easeOut,0, 100, 3, true);

myTween.onMotionFinished = Delegate.create(this, record);

}

function record() {
trace(recordReached);
}


}

Subject: [Flashcoders] Delegate Scope Class Issues

Hi All,

I have a little bit of a dilemma here. I have some Tweens that Im scripting
and when they are done I want to trigger something else. but for some
reasons I cant get the Delegate class to talk directly to the rest of the
app.

I can talk to the rest of the class directly such as
_level0.instance1.nextfunction but of course in terms of portability this
is not acceptable.

Any pointers are really appreciated.

class Mover
{

var button_btn : MovieClip;

function Mover() {
_level0.button_btn._alpha = 0;
init();
}

function init() {

var myTween:Tween = new Tween(_level0.button_btn, _alpha,
mx.transitions.easing.Elastic.easeOut,0, 100, 3, true);

myTween.onMotionFinished = function() {
Delegate.create(this, record);
}

}

function record() {
trace(recordReached);
}

Re: [Flashcoders] Delegate Scope Class Issues

2007-04-02 Thread Helmut Granda 

Thanks guys, I really appreciate it. No wonder for the life of me I couldn't
get this to work.

One more question since we are in scoping issues. As you can tell by my
class I am refering to the button on the timeline directly. such as
_level0.button_btn. But again this won't help me when the application
changes levels, so I was thinking of making a reference of the instantiated
class in the class and then reference to it but it get a bad result.

So my class is as follows:

class Timer
{

   var button_btn : MovieClip;
   var mc : Timer;

   function Timer() {
// mc created to transport focus...
   mc = new Timer();
//...rest of the function

And I get this on the output window.
256 levels of recursion were exceeded

Thanks again for your help.

You're going to get an infinite loop out of that because you're
instantiating a new instance of itself upon instantiation. What you need to
do is pass a reference of the MovieClip to whatever class you're using it
in:

// timeline code
var target:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip(target,
this.getNextHighestDepth());

var mover:Mover = new Mover(target);


// class
class MyClass
{
private var mc:MovieClip

public function MyClass(target:MovieClip)
{
mc = target;
}
}

Re: [Flashcoders] Delegate Scope Class Issues

2007-04-02 Thread Helmut Granda 

Thanks David, I believe all is clear now, I was having difficulties in
referencing objects on the stage but I figured out that I needed to insert
my objects in the mc that the Class was being instantiated at. but if I
wanted to reference to the items on the Stage I just had to do:

var myClass:MyClass = new MyClass(this) // stage scope

Thanks again, I really appreciate it .. next stop Classes talking to each
other with EventDispatcher :)
