Re: [Flashcoders] regex in switch statement
Hi MM, I think its better practice to define that regex in a variable and switch on that variable. HTH, Sidney de Koning On May 15, 2009, at 2:12 PM, Mendelsohn, Michael wrote: Hi list... Is it possible to use a regular expression as a case in a switch statement? I've been searching around and haven't found anything specifically for actionscript.

RE: [Flashcoders] regex in switch statement
Thanks for responding Sidney. I think if I set a var prior to the switch, it
might not work because there are so many strings going into the switch. I'm
trying to optimize this that would apply to only some of all the cases:
switch(str){
case (W1) :
case (W2) :
case (W3) :
break;
case (M1) :
case (M2) :
case (M3) :
break;
case (K1) :
case (K2) :
case (K3) :
break;
}
}
...into something shorter like this:
switch(str){
case(/(W|M|K)\d/i):
break;
}
I think its better practice to define that regex in a variable and
switch on that variable.

RE: [Flashcoders] regex in switch statement
That didn't work for me. :-/
- MM
Oke, i think you can, since it matches the input given with the case.
i didnt test it.
But cant you store the regex in a var and put that in the case?
like so:
var myRegEx:RegExp = /(W|M|K)\d/i;
var stringToMatch = ;
switch(stringToMatch) {
case myRegEx:
break;
}
Otherwise cant you swithc on the result of the executed regex?

[Flashcoders] FileReferenceList - no upload function?
I haven't had to build ftp functionality in years. I hope someone is familiar with the problem and can address this simply. The class FileReference allows the user to browse to and select one file, and the class FileReferenceList allows for the selection of multiple files. But only FileReference has an upload() function. How do you upload (or download, for that matter) using FileReferenceList? ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
Re: [Flashcoders] FileReferenceList - no upload function?
I haven't had to build ftp functionality in years. I hope someone is familiar with the problem and can address this simply. FileReference doesn't do FTP uploads, to the best of my knowledge, only HTTP uploads. The class FileReference allows the user to browse to and select one file, and the class FileReferenceList allows for the selection of multiple files. But only FileReference has an upload() function. How do you upload (or download, for that matter) using FileReferenceList? FileReferenceList contains a filelist property, which is an array of FileReference objects. You iterate through the array and call the upload method for each.

Re: [Flashcoders] FileReferenceList - no upload function?
The file reference has an upload, the list is just an array of fileReference Objects. You would step through your list uploading file by file (better for handling errors vs. success than to just loop them). something like: file = fileList[i] file.upload(url) B.

[Flashcoders] Is there an AS3 equivalent of AJAX Suggest (like Facebook autofill searchbox)? is it even possible?
Hi all, I need to make an AS3 version this: http://www.w3schools.com/ajax/ajax_example_suggest.asp I'm thinking I'll query the database for all of the users store that in an array or xml and then attach a listener to the textfield that will search the array everytime a character is added to the textfield Has anyone out there attempted anything like this?

Re: [Flashcoders] regex in switch statement
This is very odd request. With switch... case, its only useful if you have the same condition expression. Your regex example is a similar expression, but no where the same. No I think you better off with if...else in this matter. ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
