As3 call a function inside swf

I am loading an external swf like that. In the extrnal swf I
have a function called "foo". how can I call "foo" function from
the main swf?
Thanks

why not put the function in the main swf and eliminate the
other swf if thats all there is? i have no clue about how to deal
with multiple swf's. i'd say define it in the first frame of the
flash and call on it later

Calling a function inside a symbol?

Hi there,
I'm one of those flash-devs that are trying to get Edge Animate to do what I usually do in Flash, so I might be doing this the wrong way, but I've got a symbol with a function "inside" on my stage, and I wanna call that function from the stage.
I've been trying to use sym.getComposition().getStage().getSymbol("symbolName").functionName(); but it doesn't work.
I don't have any problems manipulating the symbol itself by calling .play() or .hide() so I know the path works....can anyone show me the right syntax to call a function inside a symbol?
Thx in advance

Hi Abnesher,
An important principle to grasp is that symbols (and the stage is one of them) lies in parallel, despite the fact of instances of different symbols being nested one in another (and all in fine nested in the stage).
The consequence is that from inside your nested symbol you have no direct visibility of the function defined inside the stage symbol !
Inside the Stage symbol, in the document.compositionReady event handler :
sym.yourGlobalFunction = function( firstParameter)
// your stuff
Inside another symbol, in one of its events handlers :
sym.getComposition().getStage().yourGlobalFunction( 5);

Call a function inside a package from a stored procedure

Hello:
I am kind of new to the stored procedure. Does anyone know how to call a function inside a package from another stored procedure?
I have a existing function (func_b) inside a package (pack_a) and it returns a cursor. I want to call this function from a stored procedure (proc_c) so that I use the data inside the cursor.
can I do the following in proc_c:
my_cursor1 SYS_REFCURSOR;
begin
my_cursor1 := exec pack_a.func_b
end
It will be very helpful if anyone can point me to any reading or example. Thank you very much for your information.

guys:
Thank you for your information so far. I need some more help here. I was able to run the function in my stored procedure. However, I was not able to print the result on the screen to view the cursor result, although I am using dbms_output.put_line statement inside my stored procedure.
I use the following statement to execute my stored procedure on sql*plus. I can tell the stored procedure is executed successfully, but I did see anything printed:
DECLARE TEMP VARCHAR2(100);
BEGIN PROC_LAWS_CAD_NAME_SEARCH('LPD', 'TEST DEVICE ID', 'TEST LAST NAME', 'TEST FIRST NAME', 'F', '11112009', TEMP); END;
I tried to use 'set serveroutput on' and got the following error:
ERROR:
ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: host bind array too small
ORA-06512: at line 1
I am kind of confused now. thank you for your help.

Call library function inside a conditional disable bug

i'm trying to call a function in a dll using the call library function inside a conditional disable structure.
one of the parameters is a pointer to a C structure.
here is the prototype:
short in myfunction(short in DevNum, void *pMetrics);
outside of the conditional disable, LabVIEW allows me to wire the pMetrics parameter to a cluster.
if i put the function inside the conditional disable, LabVIEW doesn't allow me to wire it.
as a workaround, i put the cluster inside the conditional disable as well.
any ideas?

Simply create a constant of the cluster and and put it outside the disable structure. Wire this constant to all inputs (left side terminal) of the Call Library Node. A Call Library Node (CLN) set to Adapt to Type does need a valid datatype to adapt too. This works from the outside side (right side terminal) of the CLN only if the according indicator is inside the same data structure. In older LabVIEW versions you actually had to always define the left side by wiring a constant or a dummy control to it.
This has to do with the algorithme that evaluates datatypes along wires. Making that algorithme go backwards (against the natural dataflow) inside one subdiagram without causing circular references or similar is already a challange. Doing that across diagram boundaries (case, disable, loop, etc. structures) is basically impossible without causing the entire edit operation to get very slow.

How to call a function inside a class?

Hello, i am trying to fire a function onPress .. this
function is inside a class.
In this function i refer to another function inside the calss
to call a Tween. It never arrives in the second function.
I tried to make an example.
In the fla file i have:
var test:makeMovie = new makeMovie(this);
You will see a red squere and you can press on it. It should
run the tween class. Am i using the delegate class wrong?

I always have to use test movie and trace a couple of times
each time I start to use Delegate.
It wraps function.apply I think, which I tend to use more
often.
try using:
Container.onPress = Delegate.create(this,setAlpha);
and then just
setTween()
inside your setAlpha....
That's conceptually how I think I would try it above if I was
doing something similar.
I'm not sure it would have the desired effect even if the
delegate was executed as you have it coded. Unless you want
setTween's execution scope to be the Container clip in which case
you might need to do what kglad said and change the Container
reference to 'this'.
The way you have it at the moment inside setAlpha the
Delegate.create is simply creating a function...and not excuting
it.
its like : function something(){trace('what')}
and not like : something();
Below is some quick code that helps show how things work.
Notice that I assigned the delegate function to mainFunc....so that
along with the last example might provide a clue. Just paste it on
a frame and take a look at what's happening.

Calling a function inside an iFrame

I have a app I'm building that plays videos through an iFrame (src is our server). I want to have buttons in my client that when clicked can call functions inside the iFrame (e.g. play, pause). Obviously the problem is with doing this is browser security will not allow it. I understand AIR provides extra parameters for an iFrame to achieve this. I have been reading up on this and seen to get the impression that calling functions in the iFrame can only be done before the page loads?
Has anyone any basic examples of how I could achieve this?

Not all built-in functions can be used directly in an assignment.

Calling a function inside another class

I have the following two classes and can't seem to figure to figure out how to call a function in the top one from the bottom one. The top one get instantiated on the root timeline. The bottom one gets instantiated from the top one. How do I call functions between the classes. Also, what if I had another call instantiated in top one and wanted to call a function in the bottom class from the second class?
Thanks a lot for any help!!!
package
     import flash.display.MovieClip;
     public class ThumbGridMain extends MovieClip
          private var grid:CreateGrid;
          public function ThumbGridMain():void
               grid = new CreateGrid();
          public function testFunc():void
               trace("testFunc was called");
package
     import flash.display.MovieClip;
     public class CreateGrid extends MovieClip
          public function CreateGrid():void
               parent.testFunc();

kglad,
Although I agree that utilizing events the way you attempted in your suggestion is better for at least a reason of eliminating dependency on parent, still you code doesn't not accomplish what Brian needs.
Merely adding event listener to grid instance does nothing - there is no mechanism in the code that invokes callTGMFunction - thus event will not be dispatched. So, either callTGMFunction should be called on the instance (why use events - not direct call - in this case?), or grid instance needs to dispatch this event based on some internal logic ofCreateGrid AFTER it is instantiated - perhaps when it is either added to stage or added to display list via Event.ADDED. Without such a mechanism, how is it a superior correct way OOP?
Also, in your code in ThumbGridMain class testFunc is missing parameter that it expects - Event.
Am I missing something?
I guess the code may be (it still looks more cumbersome and less elegant than direct function call):
package
     import flash.display.MovieClip;
     import flash.events.Event;
     public class ThumbGridMain extends MovieClip
         private var grid:CreateGrid;
         public function ThumbGridMain():void
             grid = new CreateGrid();
             grid.addEventListener("callTGMFunction", testFunc);
             addChild(grid);
        // to call a CreateGrid function named cgFunction()
         public function callCG(){
             grid.cgFunction();
         public function testFunc(e:Event):void
             trace("testFunc was called");
package
     import flash.display.MovieClip;
     import flash.events.Event;
     import flash.events.Event;
     public class CreateGrid extends MovieClip
         public function CreateGrid():void
             if (stage) init();
             else addEventListener(Event.ADDED, callTGMFunction);
         // to call a TGM function
         public function callTGMFunction(e:Event = null):void
           // I forgot this one
            removeEventListener(Event.ADDED, callTGMFunction);
            this.dispatchEvent(new Event("callTGMFunction"));
        public function cgFunction(){
             trace("cg function called");
I think this is a case of personal preference.
With that said, it is definitely better if instance doesn't rely on the object it is instnatiated by - so, in this case, either parent should listen to event or call a function directly.

Can't call a function inside another function

Hello,
i have the following function :
FUNCTION test_day_week (P_DATE DATE)
RETURN VARCHAR2 IS
BEGIN
RETURN TO_CHAR(P_DATE ,'DAY');
END;
--it returns the day name of a given date
FUNCTION TEST_DAY_NUMBER (P_DAY_NAME VARCHAR2)
RETURN NUMBER IS
     V_RESULT NUMBER;
     V_RETURN_DAY VARCHAR2(30);
     P_DATE DATE;
BEGIN
V_RETURN_DAY := test_day_week (P_DATE );
MESSAGE('V_RETURN_DAY'|| V_RETURN_DAY);
MESSAGE('V_RETURN_DAY'|| V_RETURN_DAY);
IF V_RETURN_DAY = 'MONDAY' THEN V_RESULT :=1;
     END IF ;
IF V_RETURN_DAY = 'TUSEDAY' THEN V_RESULT :=2;
     END IF ;
IF V_RETURN_DAY = 'WENDSDAY' THEN V_RESULT :=3;
     END IF ;
IF V_RETURN_DAY = 'THURSDAY' THEN V_RESULT :=4;
     END IF ;
IF V_RETURN_DAY = 'FRIDAY' THEN V_RESULT :=5;
     END IF ;
IF V_RETURN_DAY = 'SATURDAY' THEN V_RESULT :=6;
END IF ;
IF V_RETURN_DAY = 'SUNDAY' THEN V_RESULT :=7;
     END IF ;
RETURN V_RESULT;
END;
--The above function returnds the day name in numbers
The proble is that when i call test_day_week function it returns no value even it is tested separatly and works fine don't know where is my problem :
1-number of argrments in function[b] TEST_DAY_NUMBER
?? and so ..!
Regards,
Abdetu..

You could also cut the whole thing down to a simple function... (assuming you have a need to customise your start of week rather than use built in date functionality)

Dynamically call different functions inside a function

Hi there,
I was wondering if it is possible to dynamically define the function that you want to call. Almost like passing the function name that i want to call as a parameter.
I am calling a function, but do not want to hardcode the function I am calling. I have different functions that all return a boolean value, and i want to call all of them at different times through the same procedure/function.
Is this possible???
Thank you in advance!
Tanja

Or combine your functions to use function overloading, then you can use the same name...

Could AS3 call C++ functions in .dll?

Hi there,
Could I do:
write some C++ functions and compile them into a .dll file;
then call these functions from Actionscript3.0??
If yes, how can I do that?
Thanks a lot.

I guess, you are better off to ask this question in a C forum. This is a Java forum, you know.

How to get the main funciton name when calling another function inside?

for eg, one RFC named A,inside A,a funtion B is called.when the processing is at B now,how can i get the main RFC name(A)?
any help will be much appricated.

> just see SM50,there is a column called 'Report',it shows the program id the proess is now processing.but i don't know its main program or say it 'the process's first excuting program',how can i get it programmatically?
I'm still not sure to understand. The program in SM50 is the current main program (not the first). It is stored in SY-REPID system variable. Or use this code:
DATA lt_callstack_long TYPE abap_callstack.
DATA ls_callstack_long TYPE LINE OF abap_callstack.
CALL FUNCTION 'SYSTEM_CALLSTACK'
      IMPORTING
        callstack    = lt_callstack_long.
READ TABLE lt_callstack_long INDEX 1 INTO ls_callstack_long.
WRITE : / 'current main program is:', ls_callstack_long-mainprogram.
If you want to know the frame program (the first called), use SY-CPROG, or use this code:
DATA lt_callstack_long TYPE abap_callstack.
DATA ls_callstack_long TYPE LINE OF abap_callstack.
CALL FUNCTION 'SYSTEM_CALLSTACK'
      IMPORTING
        callstack    = lt_callstack_long.
" read last line = first called program
DESCRIBE TABLE lt_callstack_long. "to make sy-tfill = number of lines
READ TABLE lt_callstack_long INDEX sy-tfill INTO ls_callstack_long.
WRITE : / 'First main program is:', ls_callstack_long-mainprogram.

Call a function inside a function..

Hi..!
I have a function with 3 insert statements. The steps are..
1. insert into tab1 values(X);
2.Call function b ( having 2 insert statements);
3.insert into tab2 values(y); (fail statement)
4.insert into tab3 values(z);
What happens if the 3rd insert fails ??? Any idea !!!

Homework ?
The answer depends on does function b commit transaction or not.
If not - all changes made in the function will be rollbacked, including
changes in function B (PL/SQL behavoiur).
If yes - only 3 and 4 steps will be rollbacked.
See example:
SQL> create table tab1 (id number primary key);
