[Flashcoders] extends implements
Hi folks, I was wondering about your personal/professional preference regarding the following. Say you have an interface IEvent and a base class Event which implements IEvent. Now you are creating an event subclass MyEvent which can: - implement IEvent - extend Event - both In other words, would you when choosing to extend Event still declare it as an implementation of IEvent for the sake of readability: class MyEvent extends Event implements IEvent OR simply class MyEvent extends Event I see pro's and con's to the both of them, but I guess I'm looking to see if there is some sort of 'why declaring blablahb is evil'. I guess I'm used to adding the implements clause as well, since it allows me to change the superclass and testing whether I still adhere to the required interface by compiling that class instead of compiling any source that uses it. In addition I hope it prevents people from declaring variables like var a:Event instead var a:IEvent... tnx in advance.

my impression of this is that if you have static variables or methods of the moveclip then you have a class that extends MovieClip? if so, my suggestion is make sure the references to the class are set to null / out of scope - in my experience unloading a class that extends MovieClip does not always delete the reference to the associated subclass of MovieClip hth - and might be barking up the wrong tree rob From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] on behalf of Matthias Dittgen Sent: Thu 1/10/2008 2:20 AM To: Flash Coders List Subject: [Flashcoders] Re: AVM1Movie unload and static variables In fact this problem applies not only for AS2/AS3 interop.

Re: [Flashcoders] Error 1120?
It took me four times getting burned by not declaring a class as public before I started doing it. The error isn't exactly clear, either, which makes it even tougher. I don't think you need to go back to the drawing board, but you might need to get zapped by it a couple of times until it sticks. :) Steven Sacks Flash Maestro Los Angeles, CA -- blog: http://www.stevensacks.net gaia: http://www.gaiaflashframework.com ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders

[Flashcoders] Bound variable not updating textField AS2
Hiya, I'm having quite a problem with a textfield that has a variable defined in the properties bar that it is bound to. The variable that is set in the var field is a property of an object like this: ActionScript Code: object.textProperty The object is initialized and I can trace the property from the frame that the textField exists on though the teftfield will not display it. This isn't a text embedding problem as I'm using system fonts and tracing the .text property of the textfield so I know what's in it. I have tried setting the variable to update every second and also re-initializing the object and adding the property again to try and get the textfield to update but it's not working. I can't get the textfield to read a variable that is a property of an object that exists on the same frame so this isn't a targetting issue. I can get the textfield to show and update a variable that is declared in the normal way: ActionScript Code: var myVar:String = my test string; but once it is inside an object it won't work. I have inherited this project and so I can't change the way the variables are targeted as it will be too much work (there are over 120 text fields) all I can do is update the variable. The original project worked fine with this technique but now it does not seem to be working at all, I'm not sure how I've broken it! If anyone has any suggestions I would be really glad to hear them as I am very very stuck and have spent hours trying to solve this!

Re: [Flashcoders] cacheasBitmap renders dynamic text distorted
I don't remember, but this maybe problematic if you do embed (or do
not ?!) the font.
I ended up with another technique which takes snapshots of the
textfield to be tweened, and then animates this bitmap
import flash.display.Bitmap;
import flash.display.BitmapData;
import flash.text.TextField;
import caurina.transitions.Tweener;
// create the textfield
this.field_txt = new TextField();
this.field_txt.text = This is some text;
this.addChild(this.field_txt);
// create the bitmap
this.field_bmp = new Bitmap(new BitmapData(this.field_txt.width,
this.field_txt.height, true, 0x));
// draw the textfield into the bitmap
this.field_bmp.bitmapData.draw(this.field_txt);
this.addChild(this.field_bmp);
// tween the bitmap field
Tweener.addTween(this.field_bmp, {y:100, transition:easeInOutSine,
time:1});
hth,
Cedric
I was experience a little slowdown animating three dynamic
textfields using Tweener
i used the cacheAsBitmap to true thinking this would solve it.
it did but it also made the text look really bad?
any suggestions? didnt find anything on google..

Re: [Flashcoders] extends implements
I normally just declare the extends, as the docs for the base class would already show that it fits the interface. However, in my AS2 code (I'm also working in java, C#, and C++ right now) I've started declaring the interfaces as well. The reason I started doing that is that the documentation generator I'm using (as2api) doesn't seem to properly inherit the documentation from the interface unless I explicitly declare it. -Andy On Jan 10, 2008 3:11 AM, Hans Wichman [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi folks, I was wondering about your personal/professional preference regarding the following.

Another thing, maybe you know this aswell; i'm using Claus Wahlers AIR

already converted it to beta 3, however there is still a error i'm
getting about the flash.filesystem.File; import it says:

public function AIRRemoteUpdaterEvent(type:String, file:File = null,

Had anything changed in flash.filesystem.File aswell?

feature is not supported on this system.. Now i have checked the
labs.adobe docs and said it should be in there, i'm using the beta 3
for CS3.
Does anyone have experience with this? Or know a workaround? Maybe the
method call was changed in beta 3?

[Flashcoders] [AS2/JS] problem with cross domain JS,
Hello everyone, searched archives and went through the flash help IDE but I am still a bit stuck with a cross domain issue. 2 flash files and 1 html page, the HTML page is on a different server/domain than the SWFs. both flash files need to have access to JS on the page [calls and return]. It works fine when I have all 3 files on the same server [for testing, but this is not the final location in production...] I have tried [in param and embed of object:] allowScriptAccess = always And I also tried making a crossdomain.xml file: ?xml version=1.0? cross-domain-policy allow-access-from domain=development.servernameA.com / allow-access-from domain=development.servernameB.com / /cross-domain-policy I placed the crossdomain.xml file in both servers where the files are hosted (/test/) and then I pointed the flash files [first frame of code] to the cross domain file: System.security.loadPolicyFile( development.servernameA.com/test/crossdomain.xml); Maybe I am missing something very simple...? But at the moment I am stuck and not all too sure what else I need to change to allow these two swf files to send/receive javascript to the hosting HTML page... any advice is much appreciated!

[Flashcoders] F9 breaking F7?
Since installing F9 I can't get some of my old movies to publish in F7. I don't get any errors, but I just get a blank stage when I go to Test Movie. Is this a known problem? I have know idea where to begin look. I figured I could narrow it down to a specific asset by removing half the items from the time line and so on, then removing half the items from the library and so on, but even after clearing out the entire library and timeline (and adding something new to look at) I just get a blank stage. It's a good thing they let you install the software on a backup machine. Time to boot up my old laptop Thanks! ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders

There are a few changes to the File class for example file.resolve(url),

... But from the error it looks like the AIRRemoteUpdaterEvent class is
missing an import.

Good plan, it doesn't look that complicated anyway...
@How do you trace your messages in AIR from the IDE?
Are you using Flex or Flash? I've not built any AIR in Flash so I cant
comment, but in Flex you get full stack trace, debug and memory profiler
for working in the IDE ;)

Re: [Flashcoders] extends implements
I declare the implements as well, because FDT doesn't seem to infer interface inheritance. Without explicitly declaring the implements, I get extraneous error notifications. On 1/10/08, Andy Herrman [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I normally just declare the extends, as the docs for the base class would already show that it fits the interface. However, in my AS2 code (I'm also working in java, C#, and C++ right now) I've started declaring the interfaces as well. The reason I started doing that is that the documentation generator I'm using (as2api) doesn't seem to properly inherit the documentation from the interface unless I explicitly declare it. -Andy On Jan 10, 2008 3:11 AM, Hans Wichman [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi folks, I was wondering about your personal/professional preference regarding the following. Say you have an interface IEvent and a base class Event which implements IEvent. Now you are creating an event subclass MyEvent which can: - implement IEvent - extend Event - both In other words, would you when choosing to extend Event still declare it as an implementation of IEvent for the sake of readability: class MyEvent extends Event implements IEvent OR simply class MyEvent extends Event I see pro's and con's to the both of them, but I guess I'm looking to see if there is some sort of 'why declaring blablahb is evil'. I guess I'm used to adding the implements clause as well, since it allows me to change the superclass and testing whether I still adhere to the required interface by compiling that class instead of compiling any source that uses it. In addition I hope it prevents people from declaring variables like var a:Event instead var a:IEvent... tnx in advance.

[Flashcoders] Q: applying a decorator to manually authored object
Hi I'm trying to apply a decorator to a movieclip instance that is manually placed on the stage. Normally, when applying a decorator, you simply instantiate a new concrete component like so var concreteComponent:abstractComponent concreteComponent= new concreteDecorator(concreteComponent); where concreteComponent refers to the instance of the component you wish to decorate. But what if this component is manually authored and placed on the stage before compiling?

By no means the final word on job descriptions (so please don't take offence if you feel you don't fit into any of the categories), this should offer some clarity on the evolution of the Flash ecosystem of technologies and proposed skillset descriptions in the current marketplace.

center

Hi all,
Can I not use
setSytle(verticalAling,middle)
setSytle(horizontal,center)
with uiComponent
things like
mycomp extends UIComponent{
function mycomp (){
super();
setSytle(verticalAling,middle)
setSytle(horizontal,center) // this does not work :(
}
}
Please help
Regards

Re: [Flashcoders] Q: applying a decorator to manually authored object
Hi, since your concrete instance is already on the stage wudnt u just get for example: new Decorator (_level0.a.b.c.d.etc) Although if this is truly a decorator can be debatable, but seeing the clip can have a class attached with its own interface i dont see why not. The problem with decorator lies probably with how to replace the references other objects already have to your concrete object with your decorator. greetz JC On Jan 10, 2008 11:37 PM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi I'm trying to apply a decorator to a movieclip instance that is manually placed on the stage. Normally, when applying a decorator, you simply instantiate a new concrete component like so var concreteComponent:abstractComponent concreteComponent= new concreteDecorator(concreteComponent); where concreteComponent refers to the instance of the component you wish to decorate. But what if this component is manually authored and placed on the stage before compiling?
