I do not know if that is something new. But i allways have thought,
that i can use one libary-linkage with only one class, but the solution
is more than logically...;-)

MovieClip.prototype.attachMovieWithClass = function (pStrLinkage, pStrName, pIntDepths, pObjInit, pFuncClass) {
   Object.registerClass(pStrLinkage, pFuncClass);
   //
   mc = this.attachMovie(pStrLinkage, pStrName, pIntDepths, pObjInit);
   //
   Object.registerClass(pStrLinkage, null);
   return mc;
}
ASSetPropFlags(MovieClip.prototype, null, 1, 0);

// test
MoveRightClass = function () {}
MoveRightClass.prototype.onEnterFrame = function () {
   this._x += 10;
}
MoveDownClass = function () {}
MoveDownClass.prototype.onEnterFrame = function () {
   this._y += 10;
}
this.attachMovieWithClass('mcBall', 'mcBall1', 1, null, MoveRightClass);
this.attachMovie('mcBall', 'mcBall2', 2);
this.attachMovieWithClass('mcBall', 'mcBall3', 3, null, MoveDownClass);


Small modification inside your prototype: Return the return value from the attachMovie. IE:

mcp = this.attachMovie(pStrLinkage, pStrName, pIntDepths, pObjInit);
Object.registerClass(pStrLinkage, null);
return mcp;

:)

hehe, thank you,
i have corrected this,
regards, hOk

ctrl+alt+v:

Variable _level0.mc = [Movieclip:_level0.mcBall3]

a small "var" would help :-)

greets

It seems like class registration is work once when you attach/duplicate object. Say, can you re-register class for movieclips already attached onto the stage?

there seems to be a flaw with this
MovieClip methods are being deleted as the
new Class is inherited: try giving your library asset a 10 frame timeline then calling this.stop() from within the onEnterFrame method

Yes, thanks for the comment,
our classes have to inherit from MovieClip,
i have forgotten that. Add the following line

MoveRightClass.prototype = new MovieClip();

after the constructor-function.

ahh, of course
glad to be of help ;)
cheers, stefan

Is there anyway to add dynamically created movieclips to the linkage table?

wow, this just saved me loads of time. i am creating an economics graphing program that has about 50 classes; one for each type of line (demand, supply...). i am using external classes in MX2004 and because each line drawn by the drawing API is represented in a separate mc i had to make a blank mc in the library for each class and add the actionscipt 2.0 class linkage. Using this attachMovieWithClass prototype i have one movie in my library called "blank" so to create a new type of line all i have to do is:

graph.attachMovieWithClass(name, depth, iObj, class);

note: i took out the "pStrLinkage" argument and change the prototype to always attach "blank".

Thanks a million

Mike
