How to get instance name

I was wondering if there was any way to get the instance name
of the class to the class without having to pass it in when you
create the instance of it. For example, so I can do this:
var myObject:CustomClass = new CustomClass();
and then the class knows whats its instance name being used
is instead of having to do something like this:
var myObject:CustomClass = new
CustomClass("myObject");

As I think I found out how to gnerate unique key form components passed to my method and afterwards be able to get this key by knowing the component.My code is following:
public static String generateUniqueKey(Component c){
String resultString="";
String s = c.getAccessibleContext().getAccessibleComponent().toString();
StringBuffer stringbuffer = new StringBuffer(s);
if(!Character.isJavaIdentifierStart(stringbuffer.charAt(0))){
resultString="a_";
}else{
resultString=resultString+stringbuffer.charAt(0);
for(int j = 1; j < s.length(); j++){
if(!Character.isJavaIdentifierPart(stringbuffer.charAt(j))){
resultString=resultString+"_";
}else{
if (stringbuffer.charAt(j)=='$'){
resultString=resultString+"s_";
}else{
resultString=resultString+stringbuffer.charAt(j);
return resultString;
Any suggestions on this. May this result in problems anywhere?
Thanks

How to get the name of the current tab.

Hi Experts,
I have two tabs in my tab strip and a button common to both the tabs.Can you please let me know how to get the name of the current tab in the event method of the push button.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Arun

1.Declare an Action for OnSelect event of Tabstrip. This event is triggered whenever any change in tab occurs.
2. Declare an Import Parameter in this method
   Tab type String.
3. This parameter has value of the selected TAB.
4. You can set this value in some Attribute in Attribute Tab in this event only (OnSelect):
     wd_this->Att = Tab.
Att is the attribute created by you in Attributes Tab of View. ( of type String)
5. Now the selected Tab ID is stored in this Attribute Att.
6. In the Onaction of Button , retrieve the selected tab value from this attribute using :
           Data : lv type string.
            lv = wd_this->Att
Now lv has your selected TAB ID.
I hope it would help you.

How To Get Attribute Names for a Particular VO

Hi ,
How To Get Attribute Names Of a Vo where I can Set Viewattributname To the Table RN Columns Where I am Adding Extra Columns Based on Some Condn..
So wen i am creating new Column to existing Table RN and we Need to add Attribute Name Also...Rt..
And How To get RelationShip Between Database Column Name and Java Vo Attribute Name
Ex: PlanId is the Java VO Attribute Name for the Database Column PLAN_ID
In The Same way Hw We Get the Relation ship for All other columns In the Controller Cllass ..
Can Any One Reply as It is urgent Req...
Thanks ,,
Jithen

Instead of using the VO attribute names to set and get values, best to go to the VO definition, click on Java, and generate the View Row Class with the accessors.
In the class where you're trying to set attributes, instead of a Row class, use the View Row class of your VO (eg ViewObjectName's class would be ViewObjectNameRowImpl), and when retrieving a row from the VO, cast the row to the previously mentioned View Row Class.
At that point you can use the View Row Class's methods that would perform sets and gets of each column.
To get attribute names, I don't know off the top of my head, but there might be a method mentioned in the Javadoc for the ViewRowImpl or ViewObject or ViewObjectDefinition classes to get the attribute/column mapping, or perhaps you can somehow read the XML definition of the VO which has that mapping.
Assuming business components were built automatically and no attribute names were overridden, intuitively the attribute name is a camelcase version of the column name, removing understores and capitalizing the character following the removed underscore - but that's not a fool proof approach. Just a general observation.
Hope this helps.

How to get list name through javascript?

Hi,
I wrote javascript for getting list items but here I'm hard coded list name as "Projects"(my list name). How can I get list name automatically with out hard coding,
Appreciate if anyone help.
Thank you.
function DoLogicalDelete()
var clientContext = null;
var oList = null;
var oListItem = null;
// var lstItmIsDeleted = null;
var itmID = getQuerystring('ID');
clientContext = SP.ClientContext.get_current();
oList = clientContext.get_web().get_lists().getByTitle('Projects');
// var oListItemID = SP.ListOperation.Selection.getSelectedItems(clientContext);
oListItem = oList.getItemById(itmID); // getting ID
clientContext.load(oListItem,"Title", "IsDeleted"); // load items to oListItem
oListItem.set_item('IsDeleted', true);
oListItem.update();
clientContext.executeQueryAsync(Function.createDelegate(this, this.onQuerySucceeded),Function.createDelegate(this, this.onQueryFailed));

Not sure on which context you are executing the code. If you executing this from the list form and trying to get the current list, then you may need to get the list name from the breadcrumb/list title field. Refer to the following posts for more information

How to get the name of tag or variable

Hi everyone,
I am a newbie, I have problem on getting the name or tag of the variable from OLE for Processing Control(OPC) server, could anyone tell me how I can get the name of tag or variable from writting vb codes or please direct me to any helpful information. Here are
my codes,
Dim ItemsDef(NBR_ITEMS) As String
Dim DeviceAddress As String
Dim IndItem As Long
DeviceAddress = "MBT:152.160.178.60"
'Preparing the Handles for "AddItems"
For IndItem = 1 To NBR_ITEMS
ItemsDef(IndItem) = DeviceAddress & "!40000" & Format(IndItem) '40000 is the memory location of variable in the OPC, how can I get the variable name, what is the code or syntax?
Next
blah...
Thank you,
Calvin

Hi Calvin,
If you are looking for general information and examples about OPC, then we have lots of places for you to browse!
Here is a small list, and you can probably find other links within these documents:
**If you have Measurement Studio from National Instruments, then you can look at the "Measurement Studio Reference" help file. Search for OPC and in the overview you will find the methods for accessing the items on an OPC server.
**Elsewhere in the help file, you can find a link to this Application Note on our developer zone
http://zone.ni.com/devzone/devzoneweb.nsf/opendoc?openagent&F4921B34CA8F4A9786256874005BE3F7&cat=7CDA3E51FEFC4AA2862568B80071A1E2
**One more resource is http://www.ni.com/opc
**Probably the most useful will be the examples yo
u can find on our web site. You can go to http://www.ni.com/support and in Option 3 search the Example Code database for "opc".
In the first example program (Controlling OPC Servers with the OPC Automation API in Visual Basic) that you should get when searching for "opc" in the example programs database, look for the line with this code: "browser.GetItemID(leaf)". There you can see the way the program creates an OPCBrowser from the server instance, and then gets the servers available items for use by the client. This sounds like the specific information you are looking for with the variable name.
If you aren't able to find out your answer here or in the various help resources, then please feel free to contact us at National Instruments at http://www.ni.com/ask

How to obtain instance name of Movie Clip?

Hello!
Is there a way to get the instance name of a move clip once it's on the stage? In my dress up game, I need to know which items are on the doll in order to keep them visible. My drag and drop feature uses an array and currentTarget:
var dragArray:Array = [Doll.Drawers.Dress1, Doll.Drawers.Dress2, Doll.Drawers.Dress3, Doll.Drawers.Dress4];
          for(var i:int = 0; i < dragArray.length; i++)
                    dragArray[i].buttonMode = true;
                    dragArray[i].addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, item_onMouseDown);
                    dragArray[i].addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, item_onMouseUp);
function item_onMouseDown(event:MouseEvent):void
               var clip:MovieClip = MovieClip(event.currentTarget);
               clip.startDrag();
function item_onMouseUp(event:MouseEvent):void
               var clip:MovieClip = MovieClip(event.currentTarget);
               clip.stopDrag();
               if(clip.hitTestObject(Doll.Skins))
                             //Here's where the problem starts!   ---------------------------------------------- //
                              trace("It's on the doll!");
It can successfully run this code. However, instead of tracing "It's on the doll!", I'd like to turn the currentTarget into it's instance name, which should be "Doll.Drawers.Dress1" etc... and then store that name in an array.
How would I do this?
I've looked into e.target.name, but I keep getting errors...

use the name property of clip (if that's the movieclip whose name you want):
var dragArray:Array = [Doll.Drawers.Dress1, Doll.Drawers.Dress2, Doll.Drawers.Dress3, Doll.Drawers.Dress4];
          for(var i:int = 0; i < dragArray.length; i++)
                    dragArray[i].buttonMode = true;
                    dragArray[i].addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, item_onMouseDown);
                    dragArray[i].addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, item_onMouseUp);
function item_onMouseDown(event:MouseEvent):void
               var clip:MovieClip = MovieClip(event.currentTarget);
               clip.startDrag();
function item_onMouseUp(event:MouseEvent):void
               var clip:MovieClip = MovieClip(event.currentTarget);
               clip.stopDrag();
               if(clip.hitTestObject(Doll.Skins))
                             //Here's where the problem starts!   ---------------------------------------------- //
                              trace(clip.name); // but that won't be Doll.Drawers.Dress1. it might be Dress1.

Get instance name help

Okay, I want to be able to click anywhere and get the
instance name of any object. The kicker is this actionScript needs
to be on the main timeline and not on the movieClip. In other
words, if I have one movieClip on the stage named "my_MC". I want
to be able to run the movie and when I click on the stage it will
trace "_level10", but when I click on the first movieClip, it will
trace its instance name "my_MC".
I know that:
this.onMouseDown = function() {
trace(this);
will give me the instance name of the stage or "_level10",
but how do I make it identify the movieClip I'm clicking on without
putting any script on the movieClip itself?

You need to do something like this, since the generic parameters don't exist at runtime.
public M createMInstance(Class <? extends M> clazz) {
return clazz.newInstance();
}I'm not very well versed in generics, so you may have to tweak it a bit, but the main idea is that you have to provide the Class object.

Tween and getting instance names problems

Hi, iv got these buttons animated using the inbuilt tween
function and am coding them like this:
function navOver(e:MouseEvent):void {
var page = MovieClip(e.currentTarget).buttonThumb;
var myTween16:Tween = new Tween(page, "y", Regular.easeOut,
0, -25, 0.35, true);
function navOut(e:MouseEvent):void {
var page = MovieClip(e.currentTarget).buttonThumb;
var myTween17:Tween = new Tween(page, "y", Regular.easeOut,
-25, 0, 0.35, true);
function navClick(e:MouseEvent):void {
var page = MovieClip(e.currentTarget).buttonThumb;
page.y = 0;
button.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, navOver);
button.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT, navOut);
button.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, navClick);
but if i click on the button before the animation has
finished it ignores the
page.y = 0; code and does nothing. how can i fix this?
also im trying to get the instance name of a mc called
"home" using this code:
MovieClip(e.currentTarget) wich gives me the result
[object button_1]
and
MovieClip(e.currentTarget).instanceName returns
undefined
neather of which are the instance name.
i cant hardcode the function because its used on lots of
different mcs throughtout the flash file
thanks

if you want to send the 'page' back to the 0 position, you
might be better off declaring the tweens outside the method, in
this way you can control them in 'other' methods that aren't local
to where the assignment is made, for instance:
var myTween17:Tween;
then in the handler navOut, just 'assign' the tween:
myTween17 = new Tween( .. );
then in the navClick method you could call:
myTween17.stop();
myTween17.rewind();
and that should reset the clips position to 0
for your other question use:
MovieClip(e.currentTarget.name);
