Removing items from memory using loop

The following for loop removes children from their parent if
they're in the display list. It works correctly, but I also want to
remove each child from memory with the same loop. I can't get it to
work correctly however.

I have tried multiple items in the loop to set each child to
null before or after it's removed.
Here are some:
this.child = null;
var target = this.getChildAt(0);
target = null;

  • Removing Items From Stage Using removeChild

    So, I have a file where I've added 27 movie clips to the
    stage using a for loop to cycle through items in an XML document.
    Here's the pertinent part of the code I'm using, it's AS3:
    So, I end up with 27 instances of mini_mc, each named 0, 1,
    2, 3, etc.
    I'm trying to write code to remove them at a certain point in
    the movie but having problems. Here's what I'm using:
    But I get this error:
    ReferenceError: Error #1069: Property 0 not found on String
    and there is no default value.
    I'm thinking I'm not referencing the "name" of the mcs
    properly?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks very
    much.

    Assigning names: yes, except i is an intener, so it would
    have to be "mini_mc"+String(i)
    name is a property: yes, but no, if the name could be the
    number represented by i, it would be mini_mc.1 etc...
    object names are no longer what they used to be for
    dynamically created objects... you cannot access them that way
    anymore in AS3. To use the object name to manipulate an object you
    have to first target the object by its name.... var target:Object =
    getChildByName(theName); and then use the target to manipulate
    it... removeChild(target);
    error 1067: you're using an integer "i" to try to name
    something... it won't fly unless you convert it to a string
    Also, when you decalre a variable, you need to specify its
    type/class...for example...
    var i:uint = 0
    var mini_mc:mcMini = new mcMini();

  • Netflix problem using Firefox 9.0.1 (mac), unable to remove items from queue but I can from Safari. Anyone had this problem? Talked to Netflix they can remove items on their end.

    iMac OS 10.5.8, 2.66 GHz, 4gb memory. I've tried with adblock on and off. I use HTTPS Everywhere.
    Netflix suggested it might be a browser issue and to try Safari. I was able to remove items from queue using Safari.

    Addendum: The .jpg file, below, shows the netflix popup I get when trying to delete a video.

  • Removing Items from a TextArea/Pane Component

    Hi All,
    I have a question about text containers. Basically I'm reading Strings from a file and I'm displaying them inside a JTextArea. I'm adding new Strings to the JTextArea using it's append() method. Is there a way to limit how much stuff should the JTextArea hold ? After a while my application crashes with the following message:
    java.lang.OutOfMemoryError
         <<no stack trace available>>
    Exception in thread "main"
    This is because so much stuff got accumulated in the JTextArea that it eats up all available memory and the app crashes. My question is; is there a way I can remove items from the JTextArea ? Or is there a way to limit the size/number of Stings it can hold ? Or should I be using something else instead of the JTextArea ? Thanks in advance...
    -Pete

    int size = textArea.getDocument().getLength();
    gives the total number of bytes in the text area. You can then use:
    textArea.replaceRange("", 0, 80);
    to remove 80 characters from the start of the text area. Or to remove the first line from the text area use:
    int start = textArea.getLineStartOffset(0);
    int end = textArea.getLineEndOffset(0);
    textArea.replaceRange("", start, end);
    Design your own routine to keep the text area at a reasonable size.

  • How do you remove items from the assets panel that are duplicated?

    How do you remove items from the assets panel that are duplicated?

    If you add an item to a slideshow, you'll usually see 2 entries for that image in the assets panel - one represents the thumbnail, and the other represents the larger 'hero' image.
    It sounds like you may have added the same image to your slideshow twice. You can select one of the hero images or thumbnail images in your slideshow and use the delete key to remove it. Then the extra 2 entries in the assets panel should disappear.

  • Can I remove items from the Services menu?

    I think the subject line says it all: can I remove items from the Services menu? I have a number of items in the Services menu that I never use and I would like to make the menu shorter to make it easier to access the items that I do use.

    There are a couple of things you could try. There's an application called Service Scrubber that is supposed to do this. But the web page says it's for 10.4, though it says it might work on 10.3
    Alternatively, you can edit the Info.plist or Info-macos.plist file in each application bundle to remove its service from the Services menu. This post at Mac OS X Hints has a pretty detailed description of how to do it. I tried this on my iMac running 10.3.9 and it worked just fine.
    Don't know about the Service Scrubber app, but if you edit the plist files, you'll need to log out and log back in before the changes take effect.
    Also, if you decide to edit the files by hand, I'd suggest just renaming NSServices by adding an "x" to the front or something, rather than deleting the item completely. That makes the changes easier to reverse.

  • How can i remove items from list that have been deleted when i click on them it keeps showing empty

    how can i remove items from the list that have been deleted when i click on them it keeps showing folder empty

    Actually, Reader SHOULD keep showing documents that no longer exist, I disagree. It's no big deal, and people will quickly realise why they can't open the file. They open more files, the old ones move off.
    The REASON why it should not check is that checking whether a file exists can take a long time when things aren't good. For instance if a file server goes down, or a memory card is unplugged. That in turn would mean delays opening the File menu, and I've seen some software that can sit there for several minutes. That would really give people something of which to complain...

    Thanks

    You can use iCloud with 10.7.5. You do not need to upgrade to Yosemite. You should provide a minimum of 15 GBs of free space or 10% of the hard drive's capacity, whichever is greater.
    Freeing Up Space on The Hard Drive
      1. See Lion/Mountain Lion/Mavericks' Storage Display.
      2. You can remove data from your Home folder except for the /Home/Library/ folder.
      3. Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on freeing up space on your hard drive.
      4. Also see Freeing space on your Mac OS X startup disk.
      5. See Where did my Disk Space go?.
      6. See The Storage Display.
    You must Empty the Trash in order to recover the space they occupied on the hard drive.
    You should consider replacing the drive with a larger one. Check out OWC for drives, tutorials, and toolkits.
    Try using OmniDiskSweeper 1.8 or GrandPerspective to search your drive for large files and where they are located.

  • Remove items from the Tools menu in the Service Manager console

    Hi. 
    I know I have see a post regarding this before, but just wanted to put it out these once again.  I'd like to remove items from the Tools menu in the Service Manager console - specifically My Notifications and Create Change Request.  This is because
    the former allows a user to create notification subscriptions in incorrect Management Packs, and the latter because we are not using Change Management yet.  Does anyone have any information on how to achieve this?

    You should never, EVER let a conputer hard drive get completely full, EVER!
    With Macs and OS X, you shouldn't let the hard drive get below 15 GBs or less of free data space.
    If it does, it's time for some hard drive housecleaning.
    Follow some of my tips for cleaning out, deleting and archiving data from your Mac's internal hard drive.
    Have you emptied your Mac's Trash icon in the Dock?
    If you use iPhoto, iPhoto has its own trash that needs to be emptied, also.
    If you store images in other locations other than iPhoto, then you will have to weed through these to determine what to archive and what to delete.
    If you use Apple Mail app, Apple Mail also has its own trash area that needs to be emptied, too!
    Delete any old or no longer needed emails and/or archive to disc, flash drives or external hard drive, older emails you want to save.
    Look through your other Mailboxes and other Mail categories to see If there is other mail you can archive and/or delete.
    Other things you can do to gain space.
    Once you have around 15 GBs regained, do a search, download and install OmniDisk Sweeper.
    This app will help you locate files that you can move/archive and/or delete from your system.
    STAY AWAY FROM DELETING ANY FILES FROM OS X SYSTEM FOLDER!
    Look through your Documents folder and delete any type of old useless type files like "Read Me" type files.
    Again, archive to disc, flash drives, ext. hard drives or delete any old documents you no longer use or immediately need.
    Look in your Applications folder, if you have applications you haven't used in a long time, if the app doesn't have a dedicated uninstaller, then you can simply drag it into the OS X Trash icon. IF the application has an uninstaller app, then use it to completely delete the app from your Mac.
    Download an app called OnyX for your version of OS X.
    When you install and launch it, let it do its initial automatic tests, then go to the cleaning and maintenance tabs and run the maintenance tabs that let OnyX clean out all web browser cache files, web browser histories, system cache files, delete old error log files.
    Typically, iTunes and iPhoto libraries are the biggest users of HD space.
    move these files/data off of your internal drive to the external hard drive and deleted off of the internal hard drive.
    If you have any other large folders of personal data or projects, these should be archived or moved, also, to the optical discs, flash drives or external hard drive and then either archived to disc and/or deleted off your internal hard drive.
    Good Luck!
