I have been trying to convert the code posted previously to a custom class:
package {
import flash.display.*;
import flash.events.*;
import flash.net.*;
import flash.display.Stage;
import flash.display.StageAlign;
import flash.display.StageScaleMode;

var stage:Stage;
var content_tb:TextField;

stage.displayState = StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN;
stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
//----------------------------------------------------------------
content_tb.embedFonts = true;
content_tb.selectable = false;
//----------------------------------------------------------------
var clickSound:Sound;
var librarySoundOne:Class = getDefinitionByName ( "Click" ) as Class;
clickSound = new librarySoundOne();
var clickChannel:SoundChannel;

var dingSound:Sound;
var librarySoundTwo:Class = getDefinitionByName ( "Ding" ) as Class;
dingSound = new librarySoundTwo();
var dingChannel:SoundChannel;
//----------------------------------------------------------------
public class LoadXML extends MovieClip {
var xmlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
var xmlData:XML = new XML();
xmlLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, LoadXML);
xmlLoader.load(new URLRequest("xml/modernism.xml"));
// Constructor
public function LoadXML(e:Event):void {
xmlData = new XML(e.target.data);
LoadContent(xmlData);
}
// Method invoked automatically when the XML finishes loading
function LoadContent(textData:XML):void {
//CONTENT TO BE DISPLAYED ON INITIAL LOAD
var defaultText = textData.item[0].content.text();
var pageTitle_text = textData.item.label.text()[0];
pageTitle_tb.htmlText = "<b>" + pageTitle_text + "</b>";
var formatSpacing:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
formatSpacing.letterSpacing = 4;
pageTitle_tb.setTextFormat(formatSpacing);
//----------------------------------------
function setPage(page:Number):void {
field.scrollV = (page - 1) * linesPerPage + 1;
}
// Assigns the text field that is on the stage to a local variable
var field:TextField = content_tb;
field.embedFonts = true;
// Assign the content to the text field
field.htmlText = defaultText;
// Extracts the text format and line height properties
var format:TextFormat = field.getTextFormat();
var leading = int(format.leading);
var extent:TextLineMetrics = field.getLineMetrics(0);
var ascent = extent.ascent;
var descent = extent.descent;
// CALCULATE THIS NUMBER USING BODY TEXT OF THE SAME FONT SIZE
// IF HTML TEXT INCLUDES HEADINGS OF DIFFERING SIZES THE NUMBERS WILL BE SKEWED
//var lineHeight = ascent + descent + leading;
var lineHeight = 16;
var linesPerPage = Math.floor((field.height - 4 + leading) / lineHeight);
var lineCount = (field.maxScrollV - 1) + linesPerPage;
var pageCount = Math.ceil(lineCount / linesPerPage);
var offset = (linesPerPage * pageCount) - lineCount + 1;
var lineBreak:String = "<br />";
//var lineBreak:String = "
";
for (var i = 0; i < offset; i++) {
defaultText.htmlText += lineBreak;
}
//LINE BELOW IS A NECESSARY REPEAT
field.htmlText = defaultText;
var panelNum = pageCount;
var curNum = 1;
pageNum.htmlText = "<b>" + curNum + "</b>";
pageTotal.htmlText = "<b>" + panelNum + "</b>";
prevButton_mc.visible = false;
function NextOnClick(event:MouseEvent):void {
curNum++;
pageNum.htmlText = "<b>" + curNum + "</b>";
setPage(curNum);
if (curNum == 2) {
prevButton_mc.visible = true;
clickChannel = clickSound.play();
} else if (curNum == panelNum) {
event.currentTarget.visible = false;
curNum = panelNum;
dingChannel = dingSound.play();
} else {
clickChannel = clickSound.play();
}
}
nextButton_mc.buttonMode = true;
nextButton_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, NextOnClick);
function PrevOnClick(event:MouseEvent):void {
curNum--;
pageNum.htmlText = "<b>" + curNum + "</b>";
setPage(curNum);
if (curNum == 1) {
setPage(curNum);
event.currentTarget.visible = false;
curNum = 1;
dingChannel = dingSound.play();
} else {
clickChannel = clickSound.play();
}
nextButton_mc.visible = true;
}
prevButton_mc.buttonMode = true;
prevButton_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, PrevOnClick);
}
}
}
I’ve managed to eliminate all the errors except one:
1067: Implicit coercion of a value of type Class to an unrelated type Function.
That error refers to the following line:
xmlLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, LoadXML);
The compiler doesn’t like the name of the public function I guess. Shouldn’t the public function name be the same as it’s class name? Hopefully someone can spot the issue. (I’m sure I’ll get a whole other group of errors once this is fixed)
