Remove the event listener, or y at - there no need?

Gidday

If I set up an event listener in a private function

for example

var myfile:File = new File();

myfile.addEventListener (Event.SELECT, loadmyfile, false, 0, true);

myfile.browseForOpen ("Select a file to import...", [myfileFilter]);

what I have to remove the listener in loadmyfile(), or the listener goes away once Flash has left the current private function as var myfile was created at the breast of this?

Thank you guys

MyFile should be garbage collected (gc would be) because you have assigned the listener to be low with your last setting (and myfile is local to your service - private or public or otherwise, does not matter).  but there are so many problems with all that you are better off using a weak listener AND the removal of the listener.

a bit of a stretch is better than underkill and gc system can use all the help it can get.

  • [noob] Help understand why the event listener continues even after the withdrawal.

    Hey again,

    I'll try to do my best to explain. I can get this to work properly, but I'd like to understand why what I did before was not working.

    I have a little trouble understanding why an event listener continues listening to even after that I delete it. I have a facility where a Parent MovieClip ("CampScene") is established and an event listener is added to the look for a function ("walkUpToCampfire") to see if a condition is true ("comingFromAx is true", that won't be true until later).

    If it is true, an animation plays, an event listener is added to see if the animation is made and if it's an event listener is added to listen for a click ("campScene.goToAx") to a new animation to play and other events. (It won't be true until later.)

    If this isn't true (which is the situation that I work with at the start), the event listener said listening for a click on "campScene.goToAx" is implemented immediately. The function following removes the event listener, so it is supposed to stop listening to a click and let an animation play throughout.

    The problem is a continuous click to be listened to and if you keep clicking on the reboot of animation every time, which is what I don't want to happen.

    --------------------------------------

    I'm able to resolve the problem by adding the line "campScene.removeEventListener (Event.ENTER_FRAME, walkUpToCampfire)"; or in mouseEnabled affecting false for "campScene.goToAx", but I try to understand what is happening.

    It is, even if I'm deleting the listener ("campScene.goToAx") in a function ("goToAxScene"), "campScene.addEventListener (Event.ENTER_FRAME, walkUpToCampfire)"; continues to wait for a mouse click, unless it is removed also?

    Again, I am trying to understand how it works.

    --------------------------------------

    This should be all ACEs. Of course, I would like to know if you need more information. (I can post the FLA / AS files if need be.)

    }
    }

    comingFromAx = false;

    Add event listeners
    campScene.addEventListener (Event.ENTER_FRAME, sceneHoverInfo);
    campScene.goToAx.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, goToAxScene);

    }
    }

    GET READY FOR THE NEW SCENE

    public void goToAxScene(event:MouseEvent) {}

    delete movement event listeners
    campScene.goToAx.removeEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, goToAxScene);


    stop all sounds

    SoundMixer.stopAll ();

    play the clip of guy walking to AxScene
    campScene.guyAtCampScene.gotoAndPlay ("guyGoingToAx");

    check the label to see if axScene must appear
    campScene.guyAtCampScene.addEventListener (Event.ENTER_FRAME, addScene);
    }

    Your best bet to solve why things happen is to make use of the trace function.  In this case, you may have a trace run every time this listener can addedand any time it is deleted.  In this way, you should be able to see if it was added in after he deleted.  If there are several places where it is added, then adjust your tracks to indicate which line is involved as well.

  • Column reorder the event listener and prevent the reorganization in FX 8 column in tableview

    1. how to prevent the tableview FX8 reorganization column. which API to use if necessary.

    2. how to add a listener for tableview on the reorganisation of the column. I want the event fires on the reorganization of the column. Please sample.

    Thank you.

    1. how to prevent the tableview FX8 reorganization column. which API to use if necessary.

    There's a JIRA for this at https://javafx-jira.kenai.com/browse/RT-24669

    According to who, there was to be an impl_ FX8 for reorganization enabled property, but I can say that it is not in. I think that the decision was to incorporate this into something more complex (ability to move only some columns or rearrange column groups, etc.), which will be included in a future release. See also https://javafx-jira.kenai.com/browse/RT-27566 and http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/openjfx-dev/2013-January/005177.html.

    2. how to add a listener for tableview on the reorganisation of the column. I want the event fires on the reorganization of the column. Please sample.

    Just add a ListChangeListener to table.getColumns (). Unfortunately, the change is not reported as a permutation, but as a combination of adding and removing columns (I suspect that it is because a permutation is a risk that there is a point where the same column is included twice in the list of columns, which would violate the rules of the graphic scene). But basically, you do:

    table.getColumns().addListener(new ListChangeListener>() {
         @Override
         public void onChanged(Change> change) {
              // table columns changed, perhaps due to reordering...
         }
    });
    
  • Cannot remove the ghost folder. Error message: there is no such mailbox

    When I configure Thunderbird to connect to my Alpine Webmail, I had to rearrange my folders. Cannot remove a folder titled "mail" because according to TB "there is no such mailbox" but still shows on the tab my folders. I read through the previous discussions and have tried to unsubscribe the ghost folder, but that did not work or the other. I have a Mac OSX if this affects what it is. Please let me know if you have any suggestions. Thank you.

    Hello world. I solved the problem... somehow. By removing the account of Treasury Board and put in place again, TB has been able to sync with the files that were on Alpine. The ghost folder still presented (despite not existing not not on the Alpine site), but by changing the directory to the IMAP server of "mail" to "mailbox" the ghost folder disappeared. I found myself with records who have been named oddly (most likely due to the change of the name of directory) so when I changed the IMAP server directory to "mail" it reset my files with the way they were, with the exception of the ghost folder, that was no longer there. I'm not entirely sure why it worked, but in case someone else has a similar problem, I recommend to give it a try.

    Thank you all for your comments and help.

    to flash.filesystem::File/copyTo()

    Hello

    There are two different things-

    1 IOError

    2 IOErrorEvent

    Errors (including IOError) is thrown synchronously and must be captured using the try/catch statements. Infact, the copyTo method documentation indicates clearly that he thorows IOError, so you should use it inside try / catch statement to intercept him.

    Events (including IOErrorEvent) are raised asynchronously, for operations that are performed asynchronously. For example copyToAsync method, such as documented, can cause ioError events and generation of complete. Where as copyTo method does not all events (once already documented).

  • How to define the event listener AFTER_ACTIVATE for each document

    Well, I want to be able to connect an AFTER_ACTIVATE event listener to any document that is created or opened. Is anyway to do this?

    "update of certain variables"? You mean, like global variables in a persistent script?

    I suggest that you could much better be architecting your script differently.

    Maybe to have a global object that your script consults the active document, instead of using a global variable.

    Or put your data inside the document with. insertLabel().

    Global variables are generally a bad idea. In this case, it seems that you are trying to mimic the local scope by using event handlers, and this sounds a bit scary for me.

  • How to remove an event listener

    I have a series of buttons. When a button is clicked, a component (instructorView) is loaded into a container named passageContainer:

    passageContainer.addChild (instructorView);

    Every time I load a new component, I remove the component of the old first:

    passageContainer.removeAllChildren ();

    The component includes an eventListener that is raised when a key is pressed.

    The first time I load a component and you press a button, the event is triggered once.

    The second time that the event is triggered two times.

    The third time the event is fired three times and so on.

    I'm almost certain that the eventListeners are not removed even if the components are removed. And event listeners to perform several times.

    Is it possible for the eventListeners to stay after the components have been removed? If so, how can I remove them?

    Thank you!

    This means that the components are always in memory, they are tightly coupled, you need to makesure that the event listeners are weakly couples/weakreferenced.

    http://www.Selikoff.NET/2010/09/21/Flex-event-handlers-and-weak-references/

    (OR) to remove the earphones manually, by this.removeEventLIstener (on each component for all events that are saved in the component before remove you it from memory.

  • How can I check if a function is or is not called the event listener? in Flash CS4 (AS3)

    Hello

    I ran into a small problem.

    I put an event listener inside a loop for and the loop inside a function.

    I want the loop for to end as soon as the listener of events inside the for loop calls the function.

    Here is the general code for a better image.

    Code:

    this.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, function#1);
    function function#1(event:Event):void{
              if(something is true){
                        for(var i = 0; i < numOfmy_mcs; i++){
                                  this["my_mc_"+String(i)].addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, function#2);
                        }
              }
    }
    function function#2(e:Event):void{
    //do something cool here
    } 
    

    Thanks for any help!

    You can determine what the event object dispatched using e.target and e.currentTarget.  and it is not supposed to return anything to a listener.

    everything you try to do?  Click on one of a large number of objects and make and/or determine what?

  • best place to place the event listener?

    Hey there!

    I'm loading multiple images by using a loop. My question is, it would be better to put the 'contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener (Event.COMPLETE... " in the loop so that it loads the compelte Manager whenever it passes through the loop, or is it okay to put it outside of the loop at the end?

    Also, could you explain the reason for your answer?

    Thank you!

    you need to add your other in your loop.  This will call the listener function after each image is loaded.

    your location alterrnative would only call the function of earphone once during the loaded image in the last iteration of the loop for.  even if you were only interested to determine when the last image loaded, it does not work.
