RE: [Flashcoders] EventDispatcher and onEnterFrame.... problems
You want to post some code? -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Chase Brammer Sent: Wednesday, November 08, 2006 10:45 AM To: Flashcoders mailing list Subject: [Flashcoders] EventDispatcher and onEnterFrame problems Hi yall, I am using EventDispatcher and I can use it everywhere in my class BUT when I need too! Which is in a onEnterFrame loop that I am running... I think that it must be scope problem. Any idea's on what could be wrong, or another work around? Thanks.

RE: [Flashcoders] EventDispatcher and onEnterFrame.... problems
Inside an onEnterFrame function you have to use this when referring to
things in the class (if the class extends MovieClip, which I hope it
does because only MovieClips can have onEnterFrame as far as I know).
class MyClass
{
var foo:Boolean;
function MyClass()
{
this.onEnterFrame = function()
{
this.foo = !this.foo;
this.traceFoo();
}
}
function traceFoo()
{
trace(foo);
}
}

Inside an onEnterFrame function you have to use this when referring
to

class MyClass
{
var foo:Boolean;

this.onEnterFrame = function()
{
this.foo = !this.foo;
this.traceFoo();
}
}
function traceFoo()
{
trace(foo);
}
}
But you could just write it this way:
class MyClass extends MovieClip {
private var foo:Boolean = false;
public function MyClass() {
}
public function traceFoo() {
trace(foo);
}
private function onEnterFrame():Void {
foo = !foo;
traceFoo();
}
}
Or even like this:
class MyClass extends MovieClip {
private var foo:Boolean = false;
public function MyClass() {
onEnterFrame = toggleAndTraceFoo;
}
public function traceFoo() {
trace(foo);
}
private function toggleAndTraceFoo():Void {
foo = !foo;
traceFoo();
}
}
(Me, I prefer to use an event dispatcher that sends enterFrame events,
but I'll admit that that's often overkill.)

From a person who keeps posting against the use of 'this' and who says it's
bad practice I'd expect something better than using
nested functions, especially if there's no need for it whatsoever.

I think he is against using this in class definitions.
