Re: [Flashcoders] dynamically attaching a movie clip to a class/object
You should be assigning the movieclip reference being returned from
attachMovie to your myPost variable:
myPost = _root.attachMovie("signPost", "myPost",
_root.getNextHighestDepth());
Without that, your "myPost" variable is gonna be pointing to nothing.

Re: [Flashcoders] dynamically attaching a movie clip to a class/object
You are not defining what the movie should be attached to.
Try:
_root.attachMovie("signPost", "myPost", _root.getNextHighestDepth());
Note that I removed this.getNextHighestDepth(). Because "this" does not
exist on the stage yet, you can not get its next highest depth.

Re: [Flashcoders] dynamically attaching a movie clip to a class/object
Either through library linkage or...
import com.package.view.Main;
yourMovieClip.__proto__ = Main.prototype;
Main['apply'](yourMovieClip, null);

i'm currently learning how to work in an OOP manner in flash, and thus
meeting some basic hurdles.
it would be very kind of you if you could assist me in my [probably very
simple] problems.
:-)
I'm using external *.as files, and at the moment i am trying to figure out
how to attach a movie to it [should be simple, right?]
my as file:
class Post extends CoreClass {
private var myPost:MovieClip;
public function setCord(px,py,pz):Void {
//set coordinates
public var px:Number = px;
public var py:Number = py;
public var pz:Number = pz;
//original point locations
private var ox:Number = px;
private var oy:Number = py;
private var oz:Number = pz;
}
public function attachMe ():Void {
attachMovie("signPost", "myPost", this.getNextHighestDepth());
myPost._x = 0;
myPost._y = 0;
trace ("myPost = " + myPost._x);
}
}
In frame 1 of the movie i write:
Post0 = new Post ();
//Post0.setCord(100,100,0.9);
Post0.attachMe();
The trace comes up 'undefined'
if i use the 'attachmovie' from the root in the main time line, it works
just fine.
any clues?
thanks!
