| − | == Event Model ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | ActionScript is much like C. Even if you don't know C, but know some programming, you can probably get started easily enough. Adobe has copious amounts of resources on the language itself.
| |
| − | | |
| − | What might be confusing is the ''event model''. All the code that runs in a flash window is ''single-threaded''. This means only one thing can happen at once. ''There are no interrupts''. If you want to "do something" that requires a response from the server, you sometimes have to write ''three functions''. The first is the one that gets called when you click a button or type in a command. This method might ''dispatch'' a server request. After your code sends the dispatch, it typically "returns", meaning no code is running. The second function is the ''response handler'' to the server request. This is executed when the server has received your request and responded to it. Usually, your handler will be called right away, but sometimes other events (such as a timer or a previously dispatched response) will execute first. When your response handler is called, you might need to make a second request to the server, meaning a third function to handle that response.
| |
| − | | |
| − | If you want to do a lot of processing, you might have to break up your code into ''timeslices''. Here, you dispatch an event called a timer which will execute your response handler at some point in the future, say 1 second. Your event handler will do the same thing, do some work, and return. In this way, you can simulate multiple "threads" of operation; this is pretty much how each city is handled. (But it's in fact more complicated than that.)
