For loop code migration

I found this code in an AS2 .fla and would like to use it in AS3.  (The idea is to throw a random number of copies of the movieclip "star_mc" on the stage via AS). 
for (var i =0;i<50;i++) {
star_mc.duplicateMovieClip("star"+i,i,{_x:Math.random()*350,_y:Math.random()*150});
this["star"+i].gotoAndPlay(Math.random());
I get this error message:  TypeError: Error #1006: duplicateMovieClip is not a function.
at many_fla::MainTimeline/frame1()

The duplicateMovieClip method was removed in AS3 and does not have an equivalent directly replacing it.  In order to do what you want you will have to assign a class identifier to the object in the library (via the Linkage option) and use that to create new instances...
for (var i:int=0;i<50;i++) {
     var star:Star = new Star();
     star.name = "star"+String(i);
     star.x = Math.random()*350;
     star.y:Math.random()*150);
     addChild(star);
     star.gotoAndPlay(1);

  • Reusing FOR loop code

    Imagine a method that searches a specified array list and then returns a result. Something along the lines of
    public String searchArray(String textToFind, String arrayToSearch)
              for (int i = 0 ; i < arraryToSearch.size(); i++)
                        // code to search would be here
         }All well and good but the code above doesn't seem to work.
    What special notation do I have to use in order to get
    it to use the value of arraryToSearch rather than the
    actual variable itself?
    Thank you in advance,
    G

    I assumed that if I put the name of the arraylist in
    as a string then Java would be able to see that the
    string was a reference to an object and therefore
    perform the search on that object. Just for interests
    sake, is there a way of doing that?I'm at a complete loss as to why you thought that would work.
    If you want to pass an ArrayList as a parameter, then pass it, and make the parameter type ArrayList (or even better, the interface it implements, List).
    Bet it's Perl that causes these strange notions.

  • How to recover the for loop or seq() from a sequence result

    assume generate a sequence with code

    Yes; and in doing so, your program will converge towards being an exemplar of the generalization of

  • How to code a parallel 'for loop' and 'while loop' where the while loop cannot terminate until the for loop has finished?? (queues also present)

    I've attached a sample VI that I just cannot figure out how to get working the way that I want.  I've labeled the some sections with black-on-yellow text boxes for clarity during the description that follows in the next few sentences.  Here's what I want:
    1) overall -- i'm intend for this to be a subVI that will do data acquisition and write the data to a file.  I want it to use a producer/consumer approach.  The producer construct is the 'parallel for loop' that runs an exact number of times depending on user input (which will come from the mainVI that is not included).  For now I've wired a 1-D array w/ 2 elements as a test case.  During the producer loop, the data is acquired and put into a queue to be delt with in the consumer loop (for now, i just add a random number to the queue).
    2) the consumer construct is the 'parallel while loop'.  It will dequeue elements and write them to a file.  I want this to keep running continuously and parallel until two conditions are met.
          i. the for loop has finished execution
          ii. the queue is empty.
       when the conditions are met, the while loop will exit, close the queue, and the subVI will finish. (and return stuff to mainVI that i can deal with on my own)
    Here's the problems.
    1)  in the "parallel for loop" I have a flat sequence structure.. I haven't had time to incorporate some data dependency into these two sequential sections, but basically, I just care that the "inner while loop" condition is met before the data is collected and queued.  I think I can do this on my own, but if you have suggestions, I'm interested.
    2)  I can easily get the outer for and while loops to run sequentially, but I want them to run in parallel.  My reasoning for this is that that I anticipate the two tasks taking very different amounts of time. .. basically, I want the while loop to just keep polling the queue to get everything out of it (or I suppose I could somehow use notifiers - suggestions welcome)...  the thing is, this loop will probably run faster than the for loop, so just checking to see that the queue is empty will not work... I need to meet the additional condition that nothing else will be placed in the queue - and this condition is met when the for loop is complete. basically, I just can't figure out how to do this.
    3) for now, I've placed a simple stop button in the 'parallel while loop', but I must be missing something fundamental here, because the stop button is totally unresponsive.  i.e. - when I press it, it stays depressed, and nothing happens.
    suggestions are totally welcome!
    thanks,
    -Z

    I'd actually like to add a little more, since I thought about it a bit and I'm still not quite certain I understand the sequence of events...

    Yes, you got it!
    As I've thought about it a bit more, there's a few things that surprise me... first, the reason the 'dequeue element while loop' errors is not because there's nothing in the queue, it's becaues the queue has been released and it's trying to access that released queue...   However the problem I have is this --- Even though there's no timeout wired to the dequeue element, I still would think that the while loop that contains it would continue to run at whatever pace it wanted -- and as i said before.. most of the time, it would find that there is nothing to dequeue, but once in a while, something is there.  however, it seems that this loop only runs when something has been enqueued.  the reason I say this is illustrated in the next code sample MODv2 that's attached below.  I've added a stop button to the "queue size while loop" so the program runs until that is pressed.  I've also added a simple conditional in the "dequeue while loop"  that generates a random number if it a button is pressed... but this button is totally non-responsive... which means to me that the "dequeue while loop" isn't actually continuously running, but only when an element is added to the queue.  this still seems almost like the 'dequeue while loop" waits for a notifier from the queue telling it to run.  can you explain this to me? because it is different from what I expect to be happening.

  • Simulation Loop: Code could not be generated correctly for this VI

    Running LabView Simulation 8.2 on Windows XP laptop.  I have a Simulation Loop that keeps generating the following error message:
    "Simulation Loop: Code could not be generated correctly for this VI"
    The only reference I can find in my searches is to using an RTX target, which does not apply.  When I click on Show Error it just highlights the Sim Loop
    Any ideas on how to debug this?

    Perhaps you can start removing things until you don't get the error any more. How big is the code in the loop?

  • Commit after every three UPDATEs in CURSOR FOR loop

    DB Version: 11g
    I know that experts in here despise the concept of COMMITing inside loop.
    But most of the UPDATEs being fired by the code below are updating around 1 million records and it is breaking our UNDO tablespace.
    begin
    for rec in
          (select owner,table_name,column_name 
          from dba_tab_cols where column_name like 'ABCD%' and owner = p_schema_name)
          loop
            begin
            execute immediate 'update '||rec.owner||'.'||rec.table_name||' set '||rec.column_name|| ' = '''||rec.owner||'';
            end;
          end loop;
    end;We are not expecting ORA-01555 error as these are just batch updates.
    I was thinking of implementing something like
    FOR i IN 1..myarray.count
    LOOP
                             DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('event_key at' || i || ' is: ' || myarray(i));
                             INSERT INTO emp
                             empid,
                             event_id,
                             dept,
                             event_key
                             VALUES
                             v_empid,
                             3423,
                             p_dept,
                             myarray(i)
                             if(MOD(i, p_CommitFreq) = 0)  --- When the loop counter becomes fully divisible by p_commit_frequency, it COMMITs
                             then
                                       commit;
                             end if;
    END LOOP;(Found from an OTN thread)
    But i don't know how to access the loop counter value in a CURSOR FOR loop.

    To be fair, what is really despised is code that takes an operation that could have been performed in a single SQL statement and steps through it in the slowest possible way, committing pointlessly as it goes along (exactly like the example you found). Your original version doesn't do that - it looks more like some sort of one-off migration where you have to set every value of every column that matches some naming standard pattern to a constant. If that's the case, and if there are huge volumes involved and you can't simply add a bit more undo, then I don't see much wrong with committing after each update, especially if you track how far you've got so you can restart cleanly if it fails.
    If you really want an incrementing counter in an unnamed cursor, apart from the explicit variable others have suggested, you could add rownum to the cursor (alias it to something that isn't an Oracle keyword), although it could complicate the ORDER BY that you might be considering for the restart logic. You could have that instead of the redundant 'owner' column in your example which is always the same as the constant p_schema_name.
    Another approach would be to keep track of SQL%ROWCOUNT after each update by adding it to a variable, and commit when the total number of rows updated so far reaches, say, a million.
    Could the generated statement use a WHERE clause, or does it really have to update every row in every table it finds?
    Could there be more than one column to update per table? If so it might be worth generating one multi-column update statement per table, although it'll complicate things a bit.
    btw you don't need the inner 'begin' and 'end' keywords, and whoever supplied the MOD example you found should know that three or four spaces usually make a good indent and you don't need brackets around IF conditions.

  • If statement doesn't affect for loop

    I wrote a function within a function to control 2 Tweens.
    (the 2nd one isnt in the function, it's called)
    My problem is... is that it works for the first time.. the button is hovered over and all the other buttons show themselves and then disappear again, except the one you're over. Then I do it a 2nd time and it doesn't work. why is it only working right one time? and why isn't the if statement I put in the local function affecting the for loop? The 2nd time it takes the button you're hovering over with it and fades it out. (even though the if statement registers according to trace)
    this is the code
    import fl.transitions.Tween;
    import fl.transitions.easing.*;
    var shortInst:Array = [btn1, btn2, btn3, exit];
    var objTween:Tween;
    function mouseOff(e:Event):void {
         if (e.currentTarget.alpha !== 0) {
              objTween = new Tween(e.currentTarget, "alpha", None.easeOut, 1, 0, 0.25, true);
    var eTimer:Timer = new Timer(3000, 1); //timer that only runs once (in ms)
    function navFX(e:Event):void {
         for (var i:Number = 0; i < shortInst.length; i++) {
              objTween = new Tween(shortInst[i], "alpha", None.easeOut, 0, 1, 0.25, true);
              eTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, local);
              eTimer.start();
              function local(t:TimerEvent):void {
                   trace("e.target in local func: " + e.target);
                   for (var i:Number = 0; i < shortInst.length; i++) {
                        if (shortInst[i] !== e.target) {
                        shortInst[i].dispatchEvent(new Event(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT));

    is this what you want?
    import fl.transitions.Tween;
    import fl.transitions.easing.*;
    var shortInst:Array = [btn1,btn2,btn3,exit];
    var objTween:Tween;
    function mouseOff(e:Event):void
    if (e.currentTarget.alpha !== 0)
      objTween = new Tween(e.currentTarget,"alpha",None.easeOut,1,0,0.25,true);
    function navFX(e:Event):void
    var eTimer:Timer = new Timer(3000,1); // <- moved that line here
    for (var i:Number = 0; i < shortInst.length; i++)
      objTween = new Tween(shortInst[i],"alpha",None.easeOut,0,1,0.25,true);
    eTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, local);
    eTimer.start();
    function local(t:TimerEvent):void
      trace("e.target in local func: " + e.target);
      for (var i:Number = 0; i < shortInst.length; i++)
       if (shortInst[i] !== e.target)
        shortInst[i].dispatchEvent(new Event(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT));
    for (var i:Number = 0; i < shortInst.length; i++)
    shortInst[i].alpha = 0;
    shortInst[i].addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, navFX);
    shortInst[i].addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, mouseOff);

  • Need help with retrieving data in vector using for-loop

    ok i added that part inside my listselectionlistener
    it says incompatible types in line 421.
    and where do i insert :

    and/or
    StoringData selectedPerson = ApplicantList.getSelectedValue()
    this is what the code looks like after i added the loop u gave me

  • Why use cursor and for loop?

    Hi All
    So in general why would we use a cursor and a for loop to do update in a stored procedure?
    Why wouldnt we just use a single update statement ?
    is there compelling reason for using a cursor and a for loop: I am reading some code from a co-worker that the business logic for the select (set need to be updated) is complex but the update logic is simple (just set a flag to (0 or 1 or 2 or 3 or 4).
    But eventually the select come down to a key (row_id) so I re-write it using just a single sql statement.
    The size of the main table is about 2.6 to 3million rows
    Any thoughts on that??
    The code below I just do a google for cursor for update example in case for something to play with
    -Thanks for all your input
    create table f (a number, b varchar2(10));
    insert into f values (5,'five');
    insert into f values (6,'six');
    insert into f values (7,'seven');
    insert into f values (8,'eight');
    insert into f values (9,'nine');
    commit;
    create or replace procedure wco as
      cursor c_f is
        select a,b from f where length(b) = 5 for update;
        v_a f.a%type;
        v_b f.b%type;
    begin
      open c_f;
      loop
        fetch c_f into v_a, v_b;
        exit when c_f%notfound;
        update f set a=v_a*v_a where current of c_f;
      end loop;

    Adding my sixpence...
    PL/SQL is not that different from a SQL perspective than any other SQL client language like Java or C# or C/C++. PL/SQL simply integrates the 2 languages a heck of a lot better and far more transparent than the others. But make no mistake in that PL/SQL is also a "client" language from a SQL perspective. The (internal) calls PL/SQL make to the SQL engine, are the same (driver) calls made to the SQL engine when using Java and C and the others.
    So why a cursor and loops in PL/SQL? For the same reason you have cursors and loops in all these other SQL client languages. There are the occasion that you need to pull data from the SQL engine into the local language to perform some very funky and complex processing that is not possible using the SQL language.
    The danger is using client cursor loop processing as the norm - always pulling rows into the client language and crunching it there. This is not very performant. And pretty much impossible to scale. Developers in this case views the SQL language as a mere I/O interface for reading and writing rows. As they would use the standard file I/O read() and write() interface calls.
    Nothing could be further from the truth. SQL is a very advance and sophisticated data processing language. And it will always be faster than having to pull rows to a client language and process them there. However, SQL is not Turing complete. It is not the procedural type language that most other languages we use, are. For that reason there are things that we cannot do in SQL. And that should be the only reason for using the client language, like PL/SQL or the others, to perform row crunching using a client cursor loop.
