Passing combobox var to loaded swf as3
Hi all, I've been building a world cup quiz. I have a combobox that loads a swf with the questions in. On the first swf the user chooses a country which loads a swf onto the stage which contains the questions. I cant work out how to pass the country name from the combobox to the new swf.
my ComboBox and swf load code is as follows:
package {
import flash.events.*;
import flash.display.*;
import fl.controls.ComboBox;
import fl.data.DataProvider;

public class yahoo extends MovieClip {
private var bg:background_mc = new background_mc();
private var goal:goal_mc = new goal_mc();
private var soccerStars:soccerStars_mc
/*private var replayBtn:replayBtn_mc = new replayBtn_mc();*/
private var comboBox:ComboBox = new ComboBox();
public function yahoo() {
stage.addChild(bg);
bg.x = 300;
bg.y = 300;
stage.addChild(goal);
goal.x = 450;
goal.y = 180;
stage.addChild(soccerStars
soccerStars.x = 10;
soccerStars.y = 10;
/*stage.addChild(replayBtn
replayBtn.x = 580;
replayBtn.y = 40;
replayBtn.addEventListener
stage.addChild(comboBox);
comboBox.x = 200;
comboBox.y = 300;
comboBox.dropdownWidth = 200;
comboBox.width = 200;
comboBox.prompt = "Select a nation";
comboBox.dataProvider = new DataProvider (worldcupNations);
comboBox.addEventListener(
}

Well you could define an Interface providing setters for your variables and let your class yahoo implement this interface. You can then set the value from the parent by yahoo({objectReference}).{
Here's a short link to some documentation to using interfaces:

Yeh i got completely lost in that documentation. can you not just do some sort of post function to the new swf so say as it loads in the new swf from selection it just sends the country name so that its set up in a var called country or something?
Hi Alex,
Christofer's suggestion is good to implement an interface.
But if you are not familiar with interface's, you can make some raw fixes to it.
Create a function in child swf (Quiz.swf)'s document class as follow (for e.g:)
function setCountryName(cName:Strin
{
//do whatever is needed
}
and call this function on load complete event in parent swf (Yahoo class), modify complete handler as follows:
/* Add swf to stage */
function onCompleteHandler (loadEvent:Event) {
stage.addChild(loadEvent.c
// type cast the loaded content as per document class or base class
// in following e.g. i am considering that your base class is MovieClip
(loadEvent.currentTarget.c
}
Let me know if it helps or not.

(loadEvent.currentTarget.c
}
Let me know if it helps or not.
also how would i make it so that I could hold is a variable called country in the new swf so that i can send it to the database with the users quiz score
You'll require to create a receiver function in Quiz file for e.g. named "setCountryName"(cName:str
And you can store this name in your class variable of Quiz file, for e.g:
private var countryName:String;
// this function will be called by loader SWF (yahoo class)
function setCountryName(cName:Strin
{
// store it in local variable to send it to database with score
countryName = cName;
}
And in main application (yahoo class) after load complete of Quiz file (Quiz.swf) you'll call that "setCountryName" of loaded swf by passing comboBox.selectedLabel (which will be selected country name)
Let me know if it works for you, or if possible you can share the source files so that I can create a real code snippet for you.
And you can store this name in your class variable of Quiz file, for e.g:
private var countryName:String;
// this function will be called by loader SWF (yahoo class)
function setCountryName(cName:Strin
{
// store it in local variable to send it to database with score
countryName = cName;
}

Let me know if it works for you, or if possible you can share the source files so that I can create a real code snippet for you.
Would it it be possible for you to write the two functions on here? My two main classes for the quiz swf are bellow. As you can see there is database stuff going on and it will probably give you a clearer idea of what im trying to do

sorry the 2nd class is the wrong one oops for get the second package the correct one is as follows
/*Scripted by Alexander Vince for Hijack Media June 2010*/
package {
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.text.*;
import flash.text.TextField;
import flash.text.TextFieldAutoSize;
import fl.controls.TextArea;
import flash.events.Event;
import fl.controls.RadioButton;
import fl.controls.RadioButtonGroup;
import flash.events.*;
import flash.display.*;
public class QuizQuestion extends MovieClip {
private var question:String;
private var questionField:TextField;
private var choices:Array;
private var theCorrectAnswer:int;
private var theUserAnswer:int;
//variables for positioning:
private var questionX:int = 60;

//text styling

private var formatQuestions:TextFormat = new TextFormat("Verdana", 18, 0xfecd08);
public function QuizQuestion(theQuestion:String, theAnswer:int, ...answers) {
//store the supplied arguments in the private variables:
question = theQuestion;
theCorrectAnswer = theAnswer;

//create and position the textfield (question):
questionField = new TextField();
questionField.text = question;
questionField.wordWrap = true;
questionField.multiline = true;
//questionField.autoSize = TextFieldAutoSize.LEFT;
questionField.width = 476.05;
questionField.height = 100.00;
questionField.x = questionX;
questionField.y = questionY;
questionField.setTextFormat(format);
addChild(questionField);
//create and position radio buttons (answers):

myGroup.addEventListener(Event.CHANGE, changeHandler);

var rb:RadioButton = new RadioButton();
rb.textField.autoSize = TextFieldAutoSize.LEFT;

I have actually worked out how to do this myself
added a new content loaderinfo listen to run a func called onLoaderInit
loadSwf.contentLoaderInfo.
Sends it to new swf
function onLoaderInit(e:Event) : void {
Object(loadSwf.content).in
}
child swf recieves and traces value
function init(param:String) :void {
trace(param);
}
now my next problem trying to turn this into a variable that i can pass to my sendData func. Slowly but surely I will get there. Cheers for your help anyway. If you have any suggestions on my next problem that would be greatly appreciated!

Solved it
set a var at top of class var country:String;
function init(param:String) :void {
trace(param);
//Then set the var here
country = param;
trace(country);
}
set a var at top of class var country:String;
function init(param:String) :void {
trace(param);
//Then set the var here
country = param;
trace(country);
}
Maybe this has something to do, if a remove the cast like
connectorLoader.content
instead of
(connectorLoader.content as Connector)
I get in the console [class Connector]
but if I change the cast to
Connector(connectorLoader.
it said
TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert com.goseta::Connector@2a88
at com.goseta::HostMain/onCon
which mean is trying to convert to a different class, but is the same one, what I'm doing wrong, please help me!!, thanks! :(
