How do I upgrade this code from Flash 6?

I bought a template and am attempting to reverse engineer the
code written for Flash 6 and ActionScript 1.0 without really
knowing ActionScript very well to start with. I would like to
update the code to ActionScript 3.0 and a later version of Flash so
that I can use the effect with updated features, but when setting
the publish preferences to Flash 8, the code simply does not work.
It doesn't fail or cause syntax or even runtime errors. It simply
does nothing at all. It works fine when publishing for Flash 6 but
not in Flash 8 or beyond. Is there something obvious to the
veterans out there that you can point out to me? When tracing the
code, the variable Object.environment.dotCount returns "undefined"
but I'm not sure how to define it without reinitializing it,
thereby defeating the purpose...
The code should produce the effect demonstrated at

Not so hastily.

  • How do you convert this code from AS3 to AS2?

    Hi,
    I created some AS3 code that is working perfectly for us.
    However now we need to convert it to AS2 so that it can be Flash
    Player 8 compatible. If it could also be compatible for Flash
    Player 7 that would be ideal but not a requirement.
    Thanks in advance.

    Are you wanting someone to do the conversion for you, or are
    you asking for general tips for doing the conversion yourself?
    i can give you tips:
    have a look at the
    ActionScript
    2.0 Migration page.
    In this you'll find the property conversions eg(going from
    AS3 to AS2). y becomes _y, height becomes _height, scaleX becomes
    _xscale, void becomes Void etc.
    you'll find that events need to be converted, eg.
    particle.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,
    animateParticle);
    becomes:
    particle.onEnterFrame=animateParticle;
    the onEnterFrame class doesn't pass an Event parameter to the
    event listener. Instead, the event listener is automatically in the
    scope of the event dispatcher, so instead of 'event.target' you
    will be able to just target 'this'.
    You'll need to use setInterval() instead of the Timer class.
    You'll need to use attachMovie() instead of
    addChild().

  • HT1444 how can I upgrade my macbook from 10.5.8 version to the latest version

    how can I upgrade my macbook from OS X 10.5.8 version to the latest version?

    Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
    Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
    http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
    Whilst Apple have withdrawn Snow Leopard from their stores, you can still get it from Apple by calling 1-800-MY-APPLE (if you are in the USA) and they will supply the SL DVD for $20 for a single user, or $30 for a family pack that covers up to 5 Macs.  You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion from the same number (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:
    http://www.apple.com/osx/specs/
    If you are outside the US call your national Apple Helpline:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
    If you're in the UK, use this number: 0871 508 4400
    When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard.
    To use iCloud you have to upgrade all the way to Mountain Lion:

  • How to find out company code from a plant ?

    Hello friends,
    I have to modify a program that uses FM "BAPI_COMPANYCODE_GET_PERIOD".   For that, we have to export company code ID.  Currently it is hard coded with one company code.  Now we want to make this program usable by all company codes.  So instead of hard coding, I would like to dynamically find out company code based on the plant.   So I want to know - how to find out company code from a plant ?  Is there any table that has plant to company-code assignment data, or any other FM/BAPI to get this info ?
    Thanks,
    - Chetan

  • How do I upgrade my iMac from OSX10.5.8 to Mountain Lion?

    How do I upgrade my iMac from OSX10.5.8 to Mountain Lion? I'm guessing I have to first purchase Snow Leopard? Is there anyway to download or upgrade online?

    First, determine how high you can upgrade.
    SL requires an Intel processor and 1 GB RAM, though more RAM is better.
    Lion requires Core2Duo processor and 2 GB RAM, though more RAM is better.
    Mountain Lion has higher requirements: http://www.apple.com/osx/specs/
    Also review applications that do not work under Lion or ML to see if you will lose critical functionality: http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
    Research first, as too many have discovered only after the upgrade that things are lost to them.
    You can buy SL or Lion from 1-800-MY-APPLE.  SL is a disk ($19 single disk license, $29 for 5-user license).  Lion will be a $19 download code to use in App Store that you get with SL.

    thanks every body's help!

    ok, thanks for your reply ! I run this code in the Flex builder 3!and the Ball class and the Chain class are all in the same AS project!
      and i changed the ball.pv property as public in the Ball class, and  the Chain class has no wrong syntactic analysis,but the AS code don't run.so this is the problem.

    I don't see that the Ball class has a pv property, or that you even try to access a pv property in the Chain class.  All of the properties in your Ball class are declared as private, so you probably cannot access them directly.  They would need to be public.  Also, I still don't see where you import Ball in the chain class such that it can use it.

  • I am a Brit living in Germany. I really need to be able to purchase from the German iTunes Store (in €) and the English one (in £). How can I set this up from my iPad?

    I am a Brit living in Germany. I really need to be able to purchase from the German iTunes Store (in €) and the English one (in £). How can I set this up from my iPad?

    Technically correct (the best kind of correct)
    Now if the Op has and retains a UK account with billing address and UK paymant card - He/She can continue to use the UK store in Germany - Apple does NOT use IP address blocking just a valid paymant card attached to a postcode !
    Basically the first four of your paymant card are country codes.
    What the op needs to do if he/she now has a Germany address and payment method (could just be German € value gift cards) is to open a separate German iTunes Account !
    On a PC/Mac its very easy to change stores, however iOS has it a bit more difficult.
    In fact i would recommend the Op sets up a new German account and credentials on a PC/Mac first.
    And doing so just means opening the store in iTunes scrolling to the bottom of the screen and clicking on the littler circular flag in the bottom right.
    After that the browser window is populated with loads of similar disc flags. Clicking any take you to that regional store where provided you have a valid address (Postcode/Zipcode actually) and payment method local credit/debit some prepayment VISA cards or just a gift card you can create a local account.
    Oh and because Apple do NOT use IP addressing you don't actually have to be present in the country of that store. Its against to terms of the EULA but it works !
    Back to the iOS device
    Tap Settings/iTunes & App Store /Apple ID (that will probably be showing the UK account set up).
    In the window that opens tap log out
    Now  change the ID to the new German name and password and in the next window make sure the flag selected is that of Germany (when in Germany)
    When buying from the UK store follow that path again log out of the German account and re-log in using the UK ID
    As it happens I have a UK Portuguese and US account all active because I have residences in all three - and can visit any of the stores from anywhere.

    Telling you "what code to change it to" will not help you at all. You need to learn Java, read the error message, and think about what it says.
    It's telling you exactly what is wrong. At line 31 of EvenOdd.java, you're calling isOdd(), with no arguments, but the isOdd() method requires an int argument. If you stop ant think about it, that should make perfect sense. How can you ask "is it odd?" without specifying what "it" is?
    So what is this all about? Is this homework? You googled for even odd, found a solution in some other language, and now you're just trying to translate it to Java rather than actually learning Java well enough to simply write this trivial code yourself?
