Passing variables: functions

Sorry if it's nooby questions:
How can I pass variables between functions as I know how to return a value and you can pass parameters in a function, but say, I had an external function (say "a") with a local var (so-called "vara") with a function underpinned (so-called 'b') how can I make 'vara' in the function b and then come back out for the value of 'vara' has been updated. Sorry bad explanation. Is this possible with local vars? or would I need to use a regular var who can access these two functions?

Short answer... No... you can pass things of value, and you can
return values.

You cannot pass a variable into a function and have the function change the
variable.

If you want to update a single variable with the result of a function, then
You can do like TimSymons suggested: vara (vara) b =;

But this doesn't seem to be what you're asking.

You can however set your variables within an object, pass the object to a
run and edit the variables within the object, then when the function
back, the object has changed variables. for example

function a() {}
var myvars = {vara: 123, varb: 456};
b (myvars);
trace (myvars. Vara);
trace (myvars.varB);
}

function b (myvars) {}
myvars. Vara = myvars.vara * 2;
myvars.varB = 789;
}

    Hello

    I tried to pass variables to a flashdrive with on the page refreshes. In doing my research I fell I cross things like externalinterface and others.

    I found a javascript + actionscript who spent ariables flashing without updating the code page:

    I have therefore 8 flash with actionscript 2.0.

    HTML:

    <SCRIPT LANGUAGE=JavaScript>

    <!--

    I have a flash drive with a movie player instance name of myVid:

    ActionScript:

    result_txt. Text = newval;

    myVid.play (newval);

    return newval;

    };

    _root. Watch ("testValue", watchCallback);

    The code gets the variable var in the html page. Pass vars to actionscript using javascript, displays text on result_txt and play flv video with similar name to a variable passed.

    The problem is:

    I have several a href links that I would like to have the different variables that they would pass to the flash drive.

    < a href = "javascript:callJavascript ()" > flash < /a > < input type = "hidden" name = "var1" value = "1.flv" / >

    < a href = "javascript:callJavascript ()" > flash four < /a > < input type = "hidden" name = "var4" value = "4.flv" / >

    How can I change the code so that if someone clicks on a flash of the value of var1 is passed to flash.

    and if two flash is clicked var2 are passed to Flash.

  • Passing variables by reference

    Hello

    Is it possible to pass variables by reference as the arguments of a function?

    Thank you.

    All scalar values are passed by value. Anything else is passed by reference. There is no language syntax to control this behavior in AS3.

    I would much apreciate your help

    Thank you

    Hi friend!

    I have faced this kind of problem and solved using 'Public static var '.

    Just, you declare a public static variable in your class Popup. Then you can directly set the value to this variable as,

    ClassName.StaticVariableName = value;

    In your case,.

    say PopUp2.mxml or PopUp2.as

    =======

    In the PopUp1 script:

    OnItemSelectionChange (event): void

    {

    PopUp2.m_iSelectedID = DatagridID.selectedItem.AccountID; It will change the value of this variable, even if the popup2 is open.

    your stuff here...

    }

    Try this, I hope this will help you.

    Thank you

  • Passing variables between LabVIEW and TestStand

    Hello

    I'm just learning how to use TestStand and although there are a multitude of resources available, I always find me at a loss on how to pass variables between TS and LV, leaving me to think that there is one fundamental thing that I'm missing which is likely, given that I have a weeks experience with LabVIEW and a days of experience with TestStand.

    I took a glance to the example of 'Clusters' to the Code Modules in TestStand examples (I use TS 2016 if it matters) because I thought it would be quite ideal for what I hope. In this case, I hope to be able to pass a string (a file path) to LabVIEW and VI power take this string and use it as part of an order for the Exec.VI system.  Then, I would be able to pass strings back to TestStand to show the user if an error occurred, but I thought I should get the first part of work.

    I guess my question is what do I have to wait to see in clusters to the example of the Modules of Code? The Watch window displays all defined variables premise on which has the ContainerOut in the Variables pane, but I don't see any kind of update on facades (VI1.vi and VI2.vi) LabVIEW code. Should I be?

    I looked at a few other discussions of the forum here and here, as well as the document of the basis of knowledge here, but could not recreate their solutions. It seems that the connector pane would be a viable way to go, but I'm not sure on how we create and use effectively. According to this document , it makes it seem like it should be simple enough to makes these terminals, but I am still missing a key step. I was able to follow all the steps on the knowledge base document and run the sequence, but then had no idea if it worked or not; I have the report show me the values of the variables I put, but I have no idea whether or not he actually did anything with the LabVIEW VI, or how I could see that.

    Please let me know if you need further information or clarifaction everything I ask.

    Thank you for your time,

    If you want to enter values, you must create a vi for instance dialog box

    The OK button will allow new values to pass to the output terminals.

    A Cancel button will pass just the original through the output values without alteration. The VI will close when either the OK button or cancel were pressed.

  • Is it possible to pass variables in FledgeController?

    We have some environment variables that change instance of Simulator, and it would be better that we could transmit in the Simulator, rather than having to write them to a file in the application to read running. Is it possible to pass variables in the FledgeController so they can be used as the app system environment variables?

    I don't think it's possible to pass via a command line.  But you can store this value in a file on your hard disk, Simulator one card micro SD and read the file in your application (although you mentioned that you do not want to).

    If you install via a JAD file, you can add the parameter to your JAD file and access them from your application.  But it's probably more complicated than to write a file.

  • How to pass variables to the basket to your fund information?

    Here's what I have to do.

    When a customer enters our site that they need to choose what 'group', they belong to.

    Based on this selection of some of the images, text and links on the pages are customizable (I can do this without problems using a combination of passing parameters through the URL, and writing based on cookies).

    My problem is when I get the extraction are the cookies that I wrote do not give because the url changes to the worldsecuresystems.com.

    I tried everything I can think of to try to get the information stored in the basket page to transfer to the payment page.

    I basically need to spend the 2 pieces of data based on {{globals.cookie.creditunion}} and {{globals.cookie.group}} in the cart at checkout it is added to the CMS or order somewhere.

    I hope that makes sense.

    Hi James,

    Just like Mihai said, pass variables by using the url in the payment button.

    Use the liquid version to create a payment button, here is an example:

    Checkout

    Afterwards, you should be able to go to globals.get.creditunion or globals.get.group

  • How to pass variables by using the command line when starting from a native application ActionScript

    How to pass in variables or arguments to start using the command line when starting a native ActionScript application? For example, I have my app MySweetWidget call and it was compiled with Adobe AIR runtime in captivity so now I have MySweetWidget.exe.

    In the command line, I call MySweetWidget.exe and would like to pass in variables or properties of the application. I guess that these variables are read from the loaderInfo.parameters object.

    Please let me know if the Adobe AIR runtime supports passing the parameters to native execution. If so, I would like to help determine the correct format of how pass variables. So would you want to read those loaderinfo.parameters object?

    Thank you

    I found the answer to my own question:

    Yes, it's a feature supported. It is documented on the following page:

    http://help.Adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/ActionScript/3/Flash/desktop/NativeApp lication.html #event:invoke

    When you subscribe to the event from the NativeApplication invoke it will subsequently send the event and you read the table of e.arguments object to get the start in the native application arguments.

  • Pass variables flash server - the best way?

    I use URLVariables right now to pass variables from flash to the server via the php script and update a database lines.

    var variables: URLVariables = new URLVariables();

    Currently about 9 variables are sent which are then updated in the mysql database.

    I read that the database via php calls are the main source of traffic, or at least one of them. I don't know from 100 to 500 concurrent users.

    Obvously I need expert help in the medium term, but I would like to give things a go myself.

    I've read about amfPHP, but I don't seem too well.

    Also, I can cut down the amount of php by user calls as I have anywhere for many games and mini exercises.

    BUT it is possible to get these nine variables in an object and pass the object. An object would be faster than going 9 variables and would this object placed in a cell in the mysql database.

    What would look like this? For now I can read my db easily, but if there is an object, how do you read that?

    -What is serializning? Passing an object and all data is converted to binary etc...

    As you can see, I'm a little lost.

    Thanks in advance.

    If you use a URLVariables object, then you are only passing an object even when that. I leave which, as you have. You can use Fiddler (I prefer Charles) or Charles to see all your data being passed - he did do this kind of stuff much more enjoyable.

    Serialization is simply the process of taking any Flash object, like a table and turn it into a format (such as plaintext) who can read the script on the server side.

  • pass variables between classes

    Hello! I'm new to flash actionscript and I make a small game right now. I thought to create separate movieclips for each level of play and their assigned separate classes is cleaner and easier to code.

    for example: -.

    level 1 - level1.as

    level 2 - level2.as

    Level3 - level3.as

    My problem is how to pass variables (such as health, score, etc.) to a higher level?

    Please help I'm stuck on this and I have searched a lot but couldn't get the right answer...

    Oh, and I use cs3 flash with actionscript 3.0

    I don't think you really understand what are classes and movieclips.

    MovieClips are display objects; your character, the enemy, elements, platforms< these="" will="" be="">

    Classes can be used to define new elements or extend those which already exist, such as an object or a MovieClip.

    For the purposes of making a game, I would separate levels of executives.

    do level 1 on a frame labeled "level 1".

    and level 2 on a frame labeled "level 2".

    variables will carry an image to the image.

    Use gotoAndStop (frame_label) to switch between levels

    * Make sure you use stop(); on the first image to prevent bike between the frames.

    * You can make the frames between each level that has the code "gotoAndStop(previous level)" to prevent people to hit 'play' on the swf file and the cycling through your levels.

    You can also search for SharedObjects as a method of storage of variables even after that the swf file is closed.
