Dynamic object

1

Hi,

i am trying to define a dynamic object name… here my code, but i guess it is wrong. any ideas?


i = 0 
var knobListen = "knob"+i;
var knobListen:Object = new Object();
};
//add the event listener to the knob
myKnob_mc.addEventListener("onRotate", knobListen)

Well, for one you defined knobListen twice.
instead when you define a new object go.

ActionScript Code:
[FONT=Courier New][LEFT][COLOR=#000000]var[/COLOR] knobListen = [COLOR=#000000]new[/COLOR] [COLOR=#0000ff]Object[/COLOR]COLOR=#000000[/COLOR];
[/LEFT]
[/FONT]

You also don’t need that };

I’m not even sure what this line is supposed to do

ActionScript Code:
[FONT=Courier New][LEFT][COLOR=#000000]var[/COLOR] knobListen = [COLOR=#ff0000]“knob”[/COLOR]+i;
[/LEFT]
[/FONT]

since you seem to want knobListen to be a new object. Try this. And put it after the line that defines the new object.

ActionScript Code:
[FONT=Courier New][LEFT]knobLister.property = [COLOR=#ff0000]"knob+i; [/COLOR]
[/LEFT]
[/FONT]

I think eval can help you
eval(“knob”+i) = something
