Re: [Flashcoders] haXe Flash

2006-02-25 Thread Stan Vassilev
But with the Flex compiler and framework coming for free, and haXe not being 100% compatible with AS3 (as before mtasc wasn't 100% compat too but the situation was different), I've yet to see a benefit to using it. haXe is not only Flash. You can use the same language to develop the

Re: [Flashcoders] haXe Flash

2006-02-25 Thread Martin Wood
There's been progress in this domain as well. You should expect haXe to be able to get AS3 speed and new APIs quite soon. Plus, you will still be able to use haXe to target Flash 6-7-8 player which is not the case for AS3. Of course it's the case with AS3. It's perfectly possible to write AS3

i think you miss the distinction between a language and its libraries. From my understanding the core language will provide most features that are available from each of the supported targets, but if you want to make use of specific parts of the target platform then you will need to use its

I've programmed many databases both in Director and Flash, and find it much more code it myself than use an xtra like V12. For your example, I would assign each module an ID number, then in Excel or FileMaker, what ever data base you want to use, match the ID number up with the paths to the

As long as your dataset is relatively small, XML is fine, but at some point a real database is going to be needed. I'm not sure how v12 with flash is going to work, but I have used Valentina with Director, and when you have 10's of thousands of records, you can't afford the disk space or

Hi List, XML and CSV is fine for small data, and I would even prefer it about a Database such as SQLite for rather small data or if you only need to search for one key/index. But if you need to do complex lookups or need to search for different criteria I would strongly recommend SQlite or

You can create MovieClip's in any scope/timeline. However, no, you cannot re-parent them in Flash Player 8 and below, only Flash Player 8.5. One alternative if you must use Flash 8 is to: - copy the state - remove the movieclip - attach a new movieclip in the desired scope - update the state of

[Flashcoders] Cannot attach movieclip to root???

I have two swfs. The first swf loads in the second swf. The second swf uses a function that *finds* the real _root and then uses attachMovie to attach a movieclip to it. The second swf works by itself but it does *not* work when loaded into another swf. Specifically, if I use: var

I would guess your getRoot() function is returning the incorrect root and trying to attach and then failing. What's the method look like? On 2/25/06, judah [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I have two swfs. The first swf loads in the second swf. The second swf uses a function that *finds* the real

When I would encode Sorenson 3 for Quicktime, I'd start it Friday night, and when arriving back from the club at 5am, I'd pop in the office to see how the compression was going on a 40 second clip at 640x480. Compression's just a slow business, bro. Those who do it professionally use hardware
