[Flashcoders] clickTags and sending variables to aspx
Hey there
Does anyone know how to append variables to an .aspx URL via a clickTag
button on a banner ad?
I haven't a clue (just a designer pretending to be a coder ;)
At the moment the script I have on the button is:
on (release) {
var1 = append=this_to_be_appended_to_URL;
getURL(clickTag, _blank, GET);
trace (var1);
}
And then of course I'm letting whoever's hosting the banner ad know what the
base default.aspx URL is...
cheers

Re: [Flashcoders] Anyone hate flash 9 already?
No. No I don't. I think it's come on in leaps and bounds. Especially for games. Here are a couple of immediate headliners which make Flash 9 so much better for game coding: - Speed. AS3 is _fast_. - Sensible display list/tree. No more attachMovie/removeMovieClip, no more worrying about copying things around from parent to parent just to get the damned thing to layer correctly. - Decent bitmap manipulation routines. (Yes, I know they've been there since 8, but you're saying you hate flash 'more and more', so...) From a general production/development PoV, my headline item has to be: - Command line compiler, at last. (Yes, we had MTASC before, but...) Other than that, there's been a sensible reorganisation of the libraries, a tightening up on standard ways to do things, and just a general neatening up. I'd love to see better shared font support and better sound support, but really, I think it's improved vastly since MX04 (or, in fact, since I started with v5). And I think the Macromedia/Adobe attitude has improved hugely too. Ian On 2/13/07, Arseniy Shklyaev [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Why to be specific in such a question?

[Flashcoders] Major problem with sendAndLoad and movie focus
Hi all, I am really in a bind with regards providing keyboard shortcuts within my flash movie. Problem seems to be the application polls a database every couple of seconds for status information. I use the xml sendAndLoad function. Problem is that if i shortcut to a component ((i.e) Ctrl + t , gives focus to the text field ) the focus is immediately lost as soon as the onLoad event fires. This is giving me nightmares as its now impossible to use the app via the keyboard when polling the db thus making the app inaccessible. Any advice on this would be very much appreciated. mark ___ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com

Re: [Flashcoders] Anyone hate flash 9 already?
Without Flash 9 and Actionscript 3 your beloved Flash would fade away ... looking ahead to Big M and their WPF/E stuff.

[Flashcoders] DataGrid Component not displaying all rows
I have a DataGrid Component that has it's dataProvider property set to a RecordSet that has been returned from the server via Flash Remoting. All goes well untill I try to display more than 20 results in the DataGrid, when it will display all except for the last one. I've traced the length of the dataProvider and the last item in the dataProvider and it all looks ok. By using Service Capture I can see that the RecordSet that is returned is not the same as what is displayed in the DataGrid. I'm thinking this may have something to do with the pageable options of a RecordSet. Or possibly some setting in Flash Remoting. But if anyone has any other ideas what might cause this, then please let me know. ___ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
Re: [Flashcoders] using mx.controls package in an Actionscript 3.0 Project
Please post a solution if you ever figure it out. I was trying the same thing with Radio Buttons and finally gave up after a few hours. I did figure out that you need to reference the framework.swc and framework_rb.swc in the build library for Flex Builder 2 to find the classes but I'm guessing there's more to it because while my code compiled error free, I never did get to see the controls on stage. -- James Arseniy Shklyaev wrote: I m in AS 1,2 yet.

[Flashcoders] should this work?
I have an application on my computer which is simply a socket listening for a connection on 127.0.0.1 port 5824. So, in AS3 I created a swf with the following code var sock:XMLSocket = new XMLSocket(); sock.connect(127.0.0.1,5824); and uploaded it to my server. Now, when I go to the web page where I uploaded the .swf, it connects to the socket in my local application -- giving me the ability to issue commands from Flash to the local machine. Repeat: the swf is running from the web server, not in the Flash sandbox... Is that correct? Or if I do try to create some Flash-localhost hybrid, will I get bitten by some sandbox/security issue in the future? ___ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com

Re: [Flashcoders] Attaching a Symbol From a Loader Movie in a Loaded Movie
Not in AS2, unfortunately. That's one of the main drawbacks. And one of the best improvements in AS3. There are a few tricks you can pull to almost get there: 1) If it's a static image (i.e. a JPG, PNG or non-animated single-frame SWF) and you're using Flash 8 you can extract the BitmapData from a clip in the parent (loading) movie and shove that BitmapData into a new blank clip in the child (loaded) movie. That works well. or 2) If you preload an external clip into the parent movie, it'll load almost instantly (due to caching) in the child movie. or 3) You create a _proxy_ clip in the child movie that encapsulates the attaching/detaching/location etc. of the real clip in the parent movie. So when you manipulate the child clip, the changes get passed to the real clip. This can be useful for positioning and such - I've been forced to use it a couple of times. or 4) You could use a shared library common to both the parent and child movies - then the library items would be available to both, but would only have to be loaded once (with the parent). Hope those are of some help!

[Flashcoders] Universal IDE test player or Projector?
I hope this isn't a dumb question, but I've searched the internet for hours and can't find an answer I'm building a Flash based application, which is kind of a kiosk type app, and is designed to run specifically on 20 iMac's (1680 x 1050). The machine's I have to build and test on are all Intel based one's. Is it possible to get the Flash 8 Professional IDE to use a universal binary version of the Flash player, when either using 'test movie' in the IDE, or when making a Mac Projector? I tried getting the Standalone Players from here: http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html#fp9 And replacing the players in my IDE folder (in the players folder), including re-naming them same as the one's in there, but to no avail. Am I being really dumb, or can this simply not be done? BTW, I also tried the Flash 9 AS3 Preview, but no dice - It seems to be using Player v9, but a PPC version.

[Flashcoders] Adding a function to the String prototype
I thought this was as easy as:

trace(foo);
}
var s:String = new String();
s.traceFoo();
But that results in an error, There is no method with the name
'traceFoo'. Well, duh, traceFoo doesn't exist until the code executes,
but how do you tell the compiler that? How does one add a function to
String?

Re: [Flashcoders] Adding a function to the String prototype
Modifying native object prototypes is a hack. Try extending the String
class instead:
class myPackage.MyString extends String {
public function traceFoo():Void {
trace(foo);
}
}
// ...
import myPackage.MyString;
var s:MyString = new MyString();
s.traceFoo();
If you absolutely must use it the way you describe, you can do this to
sidestep compiler errors:
s[traceFoo]();
(Now forget I ever said that.)

Re: [Flashcoders] Adding a function to the String prototype
Hello :)
If you use the strict typing with var s:String you use the AS2 class
interpretor and you must override the String.as file in the
en/firstRun/classes/FP8 directory in your flash install path.
The intrinsic of the String core class must be changed by default in AS2.
The String class isn't dynamic !
For me if you want overrides your Core Objects in think you can use Core2 :
http://code.google.com/p/core2/
This library implement all ECMAScript methods in the core class (Array,
String, etc...). In the AS2 version you can use the custom intrinsic class
of Core2 for example to compare the Adobe class and the Core2 class.

RE: [Flashcoders] How to get Arrays from a web service call into a menu nav?
You need to know the structure of the array and objects they are returning. Likely, they are handing you an array of objects with properties - and you can grab the data by navigatinging the array object like, myData[3].nav[2].name or something. But they can structure that object you get from the webservice however they want, so you need to know what the object model is.

[Flashcoders] Coding Standards: Use of Get/Set
I was wondering what people's thoughts were on the use of get and
set functions. I personally have felt that creating functions such
as:
public function get theLetterA(){
return a;
}
so the user can simply call someObject.theLetterA are confusing because
the user doesn't know if they are doing a function call or accessing a
public variable. I prefer writing functions such as:
public function getTheLetterA(){
return a;
}
So the user needs to explicitly call the function
someObject.getTheLetterA().
Are there advantages to using get and set that I'm not seeing?
I ask because I was always use getVariable() functions and started
reading ActionScript 3 with Design Patterns and the authors (as well as
many others I've read) are using get and set functions.

Hi Jason,
Thanks again,

The snippet of code I gave you were the raw WSDL, when looking at it through
the web browser, but I'll give you the structure of it how it looks
returning into flash using the wsconn instead of writing the complete as
code it for now. This is the first nav item.

Like I said earlier there are no problem to get the arrays to show the exact

RE: [Flashcoders] How to get Arrays from a web service call into a menu nav?
I'll try and shoot real straight with you here. I don't know what the
data is on your other end. I don't know WDSL or SOAP packets that well.
In my world, we develop in C# .NET and formulate objects and arrays.
The c# developer sends me an object, which has arrays, strings, numbers,
etc. Since C# is an ECMA language, the object looks the same on his end
as it does on mine. When I receive the SOAP message with the Webservice
component, I can immediately drill down through the object and get what
I need using standard Actionscript syntax. We keep a Word document of
the object model - both of us refer to it. Him, to create the object, me
to read from it, moidify it, and send changes back to him via SOAP.
What is it you need out of the object? You haven't given a real
concrete example of one data item you're trying to reach, other than it
works in the Text Area component. Sorry, but I don't know enough about
your project to answer your question effectively.

Re: [Flashcoders] Coding Standards: Use of Get/Set
The biggest complaint that I have seen is the issue of speed. If you do
var foo: String = obj.theLetterA you expect that to be a hash
lookup/dereference/something fast. If you do var foo: String =
obj.getSomething() and you are thinking about speed, you go and look at
what getSomething() is doing. This makes sense to me, while the other
arguments I've heard against get/set make no sense to me.
For the record though I've never used get/set functions because I don't
see the point in making the syntax stranger compared to the other
languages I've used which either don't have or didn't provide me a good
reason to use get/set. Can someone tell me any benefit at all?

You can implement as either a public variable (faster, simpler) or as
getter/setter functions (more options, more security) without changing
the class' interface.
I ask because I was always use getVariable() functions and started
reading ActionScript 3 with Design Patterns and the authors (as well as

AFAIK, getVariable() is a holdover from Java, which doesn't have properties.
As a final benefit, using properties makes code much more readable. Compare:
obj.property += value;
obj.setProperty(obj.getProperty() + value);
The only time I ever use getX as a function name is if I need to
pass one or more arguments (which you can't do with getters) For
example:
public function getItemAt(index:Number):Item {
return _items[index];
}

Re: [Flashcoders] should this work?
It would seem to be alright. If the computer opening the socket is accepting messages from Flash, why would the FlashPlayer care about that. It can not possibly tell if the person who wrote the server application at the other end of the socket has compromised the server The server administrator is letting the socket be opened so once again, why should the FlashPlayer care. The fact that the server is 127.0.01 and th server administrator is the same person driving the browser should all be lost on Flash. Flash did not break the user's security. The user did when the socket was opened up. Anyone who can get to that socket can do whatever the socket allows. On a LAN, this will be fun for hackers. Ron Lance Massey wrote: I have an application on my computer which is simply a socket listening for a connection on 127.0.0.1 port 5824.

RE: [Flashcoders] Coding Standards: Use of Get/Set
Get/set is useful when creating a visual object class, as well as for
setting private variables on set. It's also useful when you don't want
the variable that is being set to be getted, as well.
For instance, I have an application which allows a user to type in the
day, month and year into three different fields.
This data is applied to the model via setters:
public function set month(n:Number):Void
{
_month = --n;
var d:Date = new Date(_msDate);
d.setMonth(n);
_msDate = d.getTime();
}
public function set day(n:Number):Void
{
_day = n;
var d:Date = new Date(_msDate);
d.setDate(n);
_msDate = d.getTime();
}
public function set year(n:Number):Void
{
_year = n;
if (String(_year).length == 1) {
_year = Number(200 + n);
} else if (String(_year).length == 2) {
_year = Number(20 + n);
}
var d:Date = new Date(_msDate);
d.setFullYear(_year);
_msDate = d.getTime();
}
This allows me to set the month to a valid flash month (month - 1), and
update _msDate, which is the date in milliseconds, for sorting by dates
very easily.
I use setters and getters because it makes autocompletion and code hints
a breeze. It also is great for visual object model classes.
If you choose to write getVariable vs get variable, it's up to you. I
use them in different ways at different times.

Re: [Flashcoders] Coding Standards: Use of Get/Set
Just thought of another use for properties: component parameters.
With properties you can do something like this:
[Inspectable]
public function get percent():Number {
return _percent;
}
public function set percent(value:Number):Void {
_percent = normalizePercentage(value);
}
private var _percent:Number = 0;
private static function normalizePercentage(value:Number):Number {
if (!isFinite(value)) {
return 0;
}
if (value 100) {
return 100;
}
return Math.floor(value);
}
//...
This code will create a property called percent which can be set by
a component parameter and will never evaluate to anything but an
integer from 0 to 100. If you were using getPercent() and
setPercent(), you couldn't have the inspectable component parameter.

Here is an example using a custom CheckBox class that dynamically draws
a check box thingy and uses a TextField for the label.
?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
mx:Application xmlns:mx=http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml;
layout=absolute width=400 height=300 creationComplete=display()
mx:Script
![CDATA[
public function display():void
{
import mx.core.UIComponent;
var __cBox:CheckBox = new CheckBox(Click Me);
var __myReference:UIComponent = new UIComponent();
addChild(__myReference);
__myReference.addChild(__cBox);
}
]]
/mx:Script
/mx:Application
The CheckBox class extends Sprite. It contains an icon (instance of
another class that draws the check box icon) and a label. After
creating these elements, the constructor calls
addChild(__icon);
addChild(__label);
Haven't had my afternoon coffee, so I hope this helps more than confuses!

Re: [Flashcoders] Coding Standards: Use of Get/Set
I use implicit getter/setters all the time when it involves a single property
of an object:
width, height, visible, etc..
I use explicit getter/setters when one or more parameters are required:
getItemAt(index), setSize(w, h)
Implict getter/setters are also invoked before the constructor, which can come
in handy if you want to set values using
attachMovie's initObject.
This will invoke the implicit width and height methods immediatly.
this.attachMovie(Ball, ball_mc, this.getNextHighestDepth(), {width:100,
height:100});
There have been some interesting discussions about getter/setters here in the
past that you can find in the archives.
Most of those go back to the AS1 days when we still had to use
Object.addProperty()
(which AS2 still results to behind the scenes).

Subject: [Flashcoders] Coding Standards: Use of Get/Set
I was wondering what people's thoughts were on the use of get and
set functions. I personally have felt that creating functions such
as:
public function get theLetterA(){
return a;
}
so the user can simply call someObject.theLetterA are confusing because
the user doesn't know if they are doing a function call or accessing a
public variable. I prefer writing functions such as:
public function getTheLetterA(){
return a;
}
So the user needs to explicitly call the function
someObject.getTheLetterA().
Are there advantages to using get and set that I'm not seeing?
I ask because I was always use getVariable() functions and started
reading ActionScript 3 with Design Patterns and the authors (as well as
many others I've read) are using get and set functions.

RE: [Flashcoders] Adding a function to the String prototype
You should absolutely feel comfortable and fine using prototype to add functions to the String native object if you want. I say if it works, use it. Just because they skimped on String and Array methods that MOST other languages have doesn't mean you should have to write a bunch of extra code to extend the class or cast your Strings as MyStrings.

Re: [Flashcoders] Coding Standards: Use of Get/Set
One of the few reasons to use explicit getters/setters in AS2 is as
part of an interface. AS2 does not allow implicit property getters and
setters in interfaces.
// Will not work in AS2:
interface Ratio {
function get percent():Number;
}
// Will work in AS2:
interface Ratio {
function getPercent():Number;
}
Fortunately, AS3 has remedied this problem.

[Flashcoders] Re: Anyone hate flash 9 already?
WHERE DID YOU GET IT!? You can't believe how much excitement and disappointment this thread has caused me. I assumed that the flash 9 prototype had been released on Adobe labs. I couldn't connect to labs yesterday, which sent my excitement through the roof! I assumed that everyone was downloading the public beta, and that's why I couldn't connect. Today, I connected to Adobe labs - but no flash 9. Are you all on the prerelease program? Or is there a beta of Flash 9 that I don't know about?

[Flashcoders] How to clear the settings of data bindings?
How could the settings of data bindings be cleared up? My problem is
reproduced by the followings:
1. Place two CheckBox compontnent instances named checkBox0 and
checkBox1.
2. Open the [Component Inspecter] and select the [Bindings] tab.
3. Select checkBox1 and click the [Add binding] button. With
selected:Boolean hilighted click the [OK] button.
4. Set [direction] to [in/out] and [bound to] the other CheckBox,
checkBox1
5. [Test Movie] to make sure selection of one CheckBox is cooperate to
the other status.
It works. Then do the followings:
6. Select two component instances and make them to a MovieClip symbol.
7. [Test Movie] shows errors because path or something for data bindings
comes to be wrong.
8. Delete the MovieClip on the stage. (Then nothing exists on it.)
Also, delete all items in the [Library]. Nothing should be included in
the fla document.
9. [Test Movie] still shows errors:
Scene 1, Binding between unknown.selected. and unknown.selected.:
The endpoint of the binding does not exist
Scene 1, Binding between unknown.selected. and unknown.selected.:
The endpoint of the binding does not exist
And [Debug] [List Variables] shows two objects remain in the movie.
Variable _global.mx = [Object #1, Class 'Object'] {
Variable _level0.__junk = [Object #26, Class 'Binding'] {
Of course, the errors do not occur if the [Bindings] settings are
cleared before step #8. But if it has been done, how the settings can
be cleared?
Any suggestions would be very appreciated.

[Flashcoders] onLoadComplete, but no onLoadInit
I thought I saw this discussed recently, but I couldn't find it in the archives. Apologies if I'm repeating something. Has anyone ever had a situation using MovieClipLoader where, when loading a SWF, the onLoadComplete handler gets called but the onLoadInit handler does? I've verified that the actions on the first frame (a component initializing) are being called, but onLoadInit never happens. TIA, -- T.

Re: [Flashcoders] Coding Standards: Use of Get/Set
You always compare implicit getter/settter with explicit getter/setter.
Just a thought of mine is to compare implicit getter/setter with
public variables.
When you use someClass, that was written by someone else, you do not
know if the following code uses implicit getter/setter or is just a
public variable:
someClassInstance._fancy = 10
If it is an implicit getter/setter, it can do for example some kind
of event handling, like like calling onFancy() or broadcast(onFancy)
everytime you set the _fancy property.
So implicit getter/setter are hiding such things effectivly from the
user of you classes.
