Re: [Flashcoders] wait or sleep
Hello, is possible to make a wait or sleep (like java) to stop a code execution and after n seconds return to execute? Not directly, but you can create the same functionality with setInterval() Danny ___ 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

Yes, put your remaining code into a separate function:
id=setInterval(function(){myRemainingCode},2000)
You can comfortably (well, messily) create a whole set of commands
that run at intervals. The only problem is that you might want to
avoid any other functions running in the intervening time.

Re: [Flashcoders] wait or sleep
you don't need a wait, the way you are doing its correct, except for the
order
mclip.onLoad()
{
continue();
}
mclip.loadMovie();
if you end your code right after the loadmovie it will continue on the
onLoad.
cheers
GaB.

Re: [Flashcoders] wait or sleep
If you are inside a loop, and need to wait you have a big problem!
I would like a semaphore for syncronization. :-\
The Adobe/Macromedia must put this on Flash. (AS) :'( .
Danny, thanks for you help! ;-)

Re: [Flashcoders] wait or sleep
I believe the effect of a wait() function in Flash would cause an
application to freeze/hang. Actionscript is a single threaded language, I
don't even think a wait() type function could be implemented with sufficient
practicality. Wouldn't it just stop the entire thread from executing any
further, then resume it, leaving the state of the application identical to
the state it was in prior to calling the wait() function? Is Java not multi
threaded? Am I wrong?

RE: [Flashcoders] wait or sleep
Wouldn't it just stop the entire thread from executing any further, then resume it, leaving the state of the application identical to the state it was in prior to calling the wait() function? Yes, but this would be very handy to free up CPU cycles to allow other processes to execute. I'm sick and tired of my C++ co workers accusing Flash of being CPU hungry.

Re: [Flashcoders] wait or sleep
F8 has addressed some of those concerns - and AS3/FP8.5 looks to make major improvements.

Re: [Flashcoders] wait or sleep
yes, we did a recent benchmark for a client that requires some real power, running the same set of arithmetic calculations this is what we discovered: as2 finished executing the code in approximately 20 seconds Java finished executing the code, in 3 renditions, 1422/ 1402/ 1438 milliseconds as3 finished executing the code, in 3 renditions, 1402/ 1438/ 1402 milliseconds These approximations would fluctuate between as3 and Java, but the bottom line is that as3 is just as powerful as Java in processing power.

RE: [Flashcoders] wait or sleep
Here is another way that might help. You can use Fuse to sequence and wait.

Very cool! :-)
But, if I put same code after line 15 in exemple below??? :-(
Rodrigo Schramm
Actionscript:
1.
function drawLoadManager(){
2.
trace(Draw Load Manager Called);
3.
var lm = this.loadManager = new Fuse();
4.
lm.push({ func:myMethodOne, scope:this, command:pause});
5.
lm.push({ func:loadData, scope:this, command:pause});
6.
lm.push({ func:loadMyClip, scope:this, command:pause});
7.
lm.start();
8.
}
9.
10.
function myMethodOne(){
11.
12.
do some code...
13.
14.
// resume the load manager to load the next item
15.
this.loadManager.resume();
16.
}
17.
function loadData(){
18.
this.xml = new XML();
19.
this.xml.ignoreWhite = true;
20.
// CREATE A REFERENCE TO THE CURRENT TIMELINE
21.
this.xml._parent = this;
22.
this.xml.onLoad = function () {
23.
// resume the load manager to load the next item
24.
this._parent.loadManager.resume();
25.
}
26.
this.xml.load(this.datafile);
27.
}
28.
function loadMyClip(){
29.
this.myClip.loadMovie(load something);
30.
// create some sort of load handler
31.
this.myClip.onLoad(){
32.
// resume the load manager to load the next item
33.
this._parent.loadManager.resume();
34.
}
