[flexcoders] Re: How to save a sharedobject value based on a parameter name??

2007-09-26 Thread tjcox1969 
Okso I see that there is a .setProperty() method on the
SharedObject, so I can save the cookie based on parameter name, as
in the following:

function saveCookie(key:String, value:String):void {
   so.setProperty(key, value);
}

BUT!!!  How does one GET the value using a parameter name.  There is
no so.getProperty(key);  

Appears that the only way to get a stored value is off of the so.data
object.  And you can't parameterize this.  And this is my problem. 

function getCookie(key:String):void {
   // This always attempts to get a cookie with the name key
   return so.data.key;
}

Any ideas?  Thanks!

 I want to have a function that one can call to save a name/value into
 the clientside SharedObject.
 
 The Flex doc has the example like this:
 
  var my_so:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal(superfoo);
  my_so.data.itemNumbers = items_array;
  my_so.data.adminPrivileges = currentUserIsAdmin;
  my_so.data.userName = currentUserName;
 
 
 My issue is that I don't want to hard code the name of the cookie.  So
 in the above example, I don't want to hardcode itemNumbers.
 
 Here is what I want to do:
 
 public function saveCookie(key:String, value:String):void {
  var my_so:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal(superfoo);
  my_so.data.key = value;
 }
 
 The problem is that data.key is not evaluated to its real parameter
 value and the cookie is saved as the hard coded key string.
 
 Any ideas?  Thanks!

so.data[key] ?
