NPE for textField text after migration from ea2 to final release , help....

I migrate an application from JSC2 EA2 to JSC2 final release
In one of my page (first page that i check after migration) I have some text field.
In a button action i used those textfields Text for some processing.
Now after i press submit key (whether text boxes are full or empty) i get null pointer exception when i try to access the textfields text
by using getTextField1().getText().toString()
can any one say where i have mistaken in my migration plane ?
Thanks

Hi,
Suggest to replace all butttons using FCS version.
There was some change from EA to FCS for buttons.
e.g. if you have multiple buttons on a Page that was created using EA
then the wrong action handler will get called

TextField text changed during parent's container gets reset

I'm having an aggravating issue which I think might be an inherent problem with Flash, but maybe I'm missing something. I'm finding that if I write a class file for a MovieClip in my library that contains a TextField, and try to change the TextField text in the constructor, it gets reset or doesn't set or something. I'm thinking maybe Flash runs the code to create the library version of the MovieClip after your custom constructor?
So for example right now, I've got a MovieClip in my library called "MenuBar". MenuBar has a background bitmap and a TextField with instance name lblTitle, which has the text "Title" within the library.
I've written a class file for MenuBar which has this function:
          /**The title of the menu displayed in the center of the menu bar
                    public final function set title(text:String):void {
                                   trace(lblTitle);
                                   if (lblTitle != null) {
                                                  trace(text);
                                                  lblTitle.text = title;
                                             trace(lblTitle.text);
Then I've got a MovieClip in the library called "MenuScreen". It has an instance of MenuBar called menuBar. MenuScreen also has its own class file which starts like this:
public function MenuScreen(titleText:String)
                    super();
                    menuBarTop = MenuBar(this.getChildByName("menuBar"));
                    trace(titleText);
                    trace("Old Title:" + menuBarTop.title);
                    menuBarTop.title = titleText;
                    trace("New Title:" + menuBarTop.title);
Now say I run this code:
var menu:MenuScreen = new MenuScreen("New Title");
The debug output comes out like this:
New Title
Old Title:Title
TextField: [object TextField]
Incoming Text: New Title
New text: Title
New Title:Title
It's running the code to change the text in the TextField, and doesn't throw an error, but it doesn't change the text. What am I missing?

I usually do not try to do constructor injection on View Classes (but then again, I usually allow the Flash Player/timeline to handle the instantiation and population of all my instances). I find that when the Flash player creates timeline instances, all of their children (that are present on frame 1, of course) are accessible from within the constructor, simply by referencing the instance name. So if you did something more like this:
public var menuBarTop:MenuBar;
protected var _title:String='default title';
public function MenuScreen() {
if (menuBarTop) {
    menuBarTop.title= 'default title';//this should work fine
public function get title():String {
   return _title;
public function set title(value:String) {
if (value != _title) {
    _title = value;
    if (menuBarTop) {
      menuBarTop.title = _title;
For tighter control, you can use a getter/setter for menuBarTop as well.
So, you're probably wondering how you are going to "get hold" of MenuScreen in order to populate it if you allow Flash to instantiate it? If you're not sure, check out http://www.developria.com/2010/04/combining-the-timeline-with-oo.html or http://www.meetup.com/atlflex/files/ (the files there all relate to this discussion)

How to set textfield.text on frame after goto

This seems a little ridiculous to be asking this question coz
it seems like it should be so simple but here goes anyway.
STEPS TO RECREATE:
Step 1 - create a class called simpleButt(see attached)
Step 2 - create a MovieClip with two frame labels on
different keyframes- ROLLOVER and ROLLOUT. on these different
keyframes place a dynamic textfield with instance name -
'buttonTitle'. give it different styling attributes on the ROLLOVER
frame such as text colour, bold or even a glow filter.
Step 3 - In the movie clip's linkage properties, give it the
'simpleButt' class.
Step 4 - With nothing on the stage, add the following two
lines to frame actions:
var newButt:simpleButt=new simpleButt("hello");
this.addChild(newButt);
Step 5 - compile!
this should add a simple button to the stage and set the
button's textfield's text property.
However, after going to another frame on rollover, we lose
the dynamic text - i assume because we have another instance of the
textfield on a different keyframe because it has new styling
properties on rollover. but if i try to set the text after going to
the new frame, it doesn't seem to recognise the textfield yet.
(uncomment lines in simpleButt to see what i mean)
through trial and error i've found that if i wait two
ENTERFRAMEs, the textfield object becomes available, but by this
time the textfield flickers. is there an event i'm missing or
function i could override where i could set the properties of an
object on a frame after a gotoAndStop before it is rendered?
cheers
Craig

STEP 2(where the textfield was created) is all done manually
within the authoring environment - no actionscript. This is usually
done by the design team here so to save time i'm trying to avoid
replicating every style change they've made in code.

TextField.text not clearing

I have a TextField that I have attached a KeyDown listener
too. This listener executes the method in the attached code.
Basically, it sees if the user typed a /, followed by some number,
followed by a space. If this happens, the TextField should be
cleared. Everything is working except the clear.
One thing to note, I originally tried this with a KeyUp
listener instead, but it did absolutely nothing at all. I am not
sure if this is normal or if its broken, but no matter what keys I
pressed, my listener code never got called.

You might want to try:
chatComponent.chatInput.text = String("");
If that doesn't work, look for problems in the code above
this that may be causing code execution to stop before it reaches
this code.

Textfield text link to run a javascript

I created a text link in a textfield by highlighting the text then right clicking and selecting hyperlink. The hyperlink panel opens up but it only allows for a website to be entered as far as I can tell. I would like to run a javascript onclick instead of opening a web page, is this possible?
Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the quick response George. I tried that also and it didn't work . Security restrictions doesn't make sense though because I can use the hyperlink tool over the text and and run a javascript from it. The only problem with that method is it doesn't work with a scrollable textfield.

Extracting Textfield Text from Display List

I am attempting to extract the text in a textfield that is
displayed with the container (see below) display list. The code
snippet I am using is listed below.
for (i = 0; i < container.numChildren; i++) {
var temp:TextField = new TextField();
// temp = container.getChildAt(i);
trace(container.getChildAt(i));
trace(temp.text);
When I execute this, the trace(container.getChildAt(i)) line
displays <object TextField>. But, when I activate the comment
line temp = container.getChildAt(i); I get an error about coerceing
a static variable. Can anyone give me a clue how I can trace the
text in the textfield container.getChildAt(i)?

I found some example code in the
help->clases->staticText that I modified as below to solve
the problem.
for (i = 0; i < container.numChildren; i++) {
var displayitem:DisplayObject = container.getChildAt(i);
if (displayitem is TextField) {
trace("a static text field is item " + i + " on the display
list");
var myFieldLabel:TextField = TextField(displayitem);
trace("and contains the text: " + myFieldLabel.text);
}

Cannot use text:TextField with dynamic text in 3.2

Hi, I have a multi-lang app which uses English LTR and Hebrew-Arabic RTL. I am using a properties file for each language, and I get the right item using resourceManager getString. Until 3.2 I had to reverse the order of the words in each item when using Hebrew (or Arabic for that matter). In 3.2 with the new Text layout framework, this is not needed (MAJOR IMPROVEMENT) but I cannot get it to work with dynamic text only static text. of course all works great if I upgarde to flex 4.0, and use the textBox component, but I do not want to do that, so late in the development phase of the application. Here is a small mxml which shows the problem: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="absolute" xmlns:TryComps="appComponents.*" xmlns:text="flash.text.*"> <mx:Style source="css/flashTypeStyles.css"/> <mx:Script> import mx.resources.ResourceManager; </mx:Script> <mx:Label text="Using text:TextField FIXED : THIS WORKS"/>  <text:TextField text="עברית כותבים מימין לשמאל"/> <mx:Label text="Using text:TextField DYNAMIC : THIS DOES NOT WORK"/> <text:TextField text="{resourceManager.getString(Locales.LOCALE_BUNDLE,'BI_DIRECTIONAL_TEXT')}"/> </mx:Application> Any one has an idea ??? The 'BI_DIRECTIONAL_TEXT' is an entry in the property file which has the same value as the static text above. The run time error I get is : TypeError: Error #2007: Parameter text must be non-null. Thanks Eli7

If you look thru the TextField class in the help documents you will find all of the properties you can manipulate. One property is the wordWrap property which will keep you text from going off the side of the textfield. Another is multiline which will allow the textfield to have more than one line. And another is the autoSize property which will make your textfield adjust to fit the amount of text loaded into it.

Problem of defining value to a textfield in MovieClip

hello,dear everyone
there is problem that realy confused me.that is the
textfield(or other display objects) in MovieClip can't be defined
when i jumpto that frame.check these simple code:
mc.stop()
function goNext(evt:Event){
mc.nextFrame()
dosth()
function dosth()
if(mc.currentFrame==2)
mc.mytext.text="hello"
nextBT.addEventListener("click",goNext)
the mc is a simple MC that have 2 frames,and the textfield
object is in the second frame.
and what i try to do is when i clicked the button,the mc
jumpto the second frame.and i define a value to that textfield.but
it's failed when i try to do like that.
as i debug the program.i found that when i define the value
to the textfield,that textfield is a Null Object(should be the
TextField object).not only the textfield not work,but also other
elements such as Button objects.
so,i am thinking that must because the objects are too late
to initialized before they be used.maybe there are some event can
tell me that all elements has been initialized,as i can use them
then.what do you think,my friend?

If all of the code you have is in the first frame, then it
has processed long before anything ever moved to the second frame.
What you could try is to have a variables layer that extends
both frames, and assign the value of the textfield text to that
variable. Make the textfield associate with that variable (in the
properties section for it), So when the movieclip moves to the
second frame the text field should automatically acquire the
variable value.
I may not have interpretted your problem correctly, so you
might have to clarify things if I missed the target.

How can I get text from a text field and display it in an alert?

Hello! I am BRAND NEW to Objective-C and Xcode and iOS, so PLEASE be forgiving of what is going to be a stupid question. I have a text field. I want to enter some text, click "return", and see my text in an alert. It doesn't serve any useful purpose, but this is how I learn. So far, I am unsuccessful. Here's my function from my HelloEarthViewController.m file:
-(IBAction)showInputMessageUITextField *)textField
if ([textField.text isEqualToString:@""])
 return;
UIAlertView *helloEarthInputAlert = [[UIAlertView alloc]
 initWithTitle:@"Name!" message:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"Message: %@", textField.text]
 delegate:nil cancelButtonTitle:@"OK" otherButtonTitles:nil];
// Display this message.
[helloEarthInputAlert show];
Then I go option+click the text field and drag it to File's Owner and connect it to "showInputMessage:" Then I run it and the build succeeds, but nothing happens when I click my "return" button on the iPhone simulator.
What have I missed? Where have I gone wrong?

Okay, here's where I am. I have this in my view controller .h file:
@interface HelloEarthViewController : UIViewController <UITextFieldDelegate>
 IBOutlet UITextField *textFieldTest;
@end
And this in my view controller .m file:
-(IBAction)showInputMessage
 if ([textFieldTest.text isEqualToString:@""])
 return;
 UIAlertView *helloEarthInputAlert = [[UIAlertView alloc]
 initWithTitle:@"Name!" message:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"Message: %@", textFieldTest.text]
 delegate:nil cancelButtonTitle:@"OK" otherButtonTitles:nil];
 // Display this message.
 [helloEarthInputAlert show];
And I have connected the text field to showInputMessage. When I hit "return", however, I still get nothing.
Is an "action button" a real button? From my limited understanding, the alert should launch when I click "return" since showInputMessage is attached to Editing Did End on the text field.
Thanks for the help. The transition from writing C# for web applications to writing Objective-C for iOS applications is not going as smoothly as I'd anticipated.

Load multiple parts of an XML file into one dynamic Text Field

Hi I am trying to load text from an external XML file into a dynamic text box. I have so far managed to load single parts of the XML file into a dynamic text field. I now want to be able to load different parts of the XML file (something similar to a string with appendText) into the same text Field.
I have so far managed to achive this using the String and append text properties, but would like to use XML file to do it instead.
Any tips please?
Thanks

In essence you can just do:
TextField.text = XML.node1 + XML.node2;

Dynamic Text Field Wont Wrap Text

I have a Dynamic Text field in my movie clip. This text field has embedded fonts and Behavior is set to Multiline. When I add text to it, it wont display the text that wraps beyond the first line.
var textField:TextField = tip_txt; // text field inside my movie clip
trace("before textField.numLines = " + textField.numLines);
textField.text = "test a verrrrry looooooooong striiiinnnnnnnnnnnggggggg";
trace("after textField.numLines = " + textField.numLines);
The trace commands show that the number of lines are increasing but Flash doesn't display the text beyond the first line. Does anyone have any idea whats going on?
Thanks!

textField.autoSize = TextFieldAutoSize.LEFT;
This fixed the issue : )

Connecting a CSS doc to an XML file, in a dynamic text field in Flash

Hi all,
I am trying to connect a CSS file such that it applies it
self to the content of an XML file, viewed inside a dynamic text
field. So far I have managed to gather the code that "calls" the
contents of the XML file and also the code that calls the CSS file.
However, when I test the flash movie I get "undefined" instead of
the actual copy.
Attached then is the the AS code, XML file, and CSS file. I
hope you could help me connect everything together.
And of course, THANKS!!

Placing cursor in text field using AS3

I am a newbie to actionscript 3.0 and need a litlle help that I have not been able to find searching (for two weeks).
I would like the cursor to appear and blink in the first text field in a movie clip that gathers information to be sent to a php. The following does not work.
stage.focus = textField;
textField.setSelection(textField.text.length,textF ield.text.length);
And the only other things I find are for custom cursors. I just want the visitor to see the blinking cursor in the firstName_txt input box when the page appearss.
Also, if the visitor tabs from one input text field to the other, the blinking cursor appears in the first three input text fields but not in the fourth. Yet, the visitor can enter text in the fourth input text field.

I have tested by clicking crtl+enter and uploaded the files to my isp for testing. Neither effort is successful.
BTW, thanks for helping and I am sorry about the cross posting. My bad. I didn't realize there was a section for actionscript at the time.
