strokeList
public var strokeList: Array
Array of MethodParsers with stroke shapes and paths
animation
public var animation: MethodParser
A MethodParser with timeline tweens
parseMethods
private function parseMethods( scriptArray: Array ):void
Parses an array of class methods to separate the methods into types. Updates sceneGraph, maskNames, animation and strokeList.
Looks for a method that defines the parent/child relationships on the scene graph and mask definitions and parses those if found. Looks for any timeline animation definition method and parses it if found. The remaining methods are parsed as methods defining stroke shapes and paths.
Parameters
| scriptArray | an array of class method scripts |
parseSceneMethod
private function parseSceneMethod( script: String ):Array
Parses a method that defines the parent/child relationships on the scene graph.
The parsing is performed by identifying addChild method calls. Each relationship is placed in an object with a parentName and childName attribute.
Parameters
| script | a method script defining scene relations and masks |
Returns
Array of relationship objects
parseMaskObjects
private function parseMaskObjects( script: String ):Array
Parses a method that defines stroke assets as masks.
The parsing is performed by identifying addChild method calls that are assigned as masks.
Parameters
| script | a method script defining scene relations and masks |
Returns
Array of mask names
parseAnimateMethod
private function parseAnimateMethod( script: String ):MethodParser
Parses a timeline animation method for defined tweens.
Parameters
| script | animation method script |
Returns
A MethodParser object
parseStrokeMethods
private function parseStrokeMethods( scriptArray: Array, sceneMethodIndex: int, animateMethodIndex: int ):Array
Parses all script methods as stroke methods except those found to define scene relations and animation.
Each method is parsed by a MethodParser in sequence.
Parameters
| scriptArray | an array of class method scripts |
| sceneMethodIndex | index of the scene relation method, -1 if no such method exists |
| animateMethodIndex | index of the timeline animation method, -1 if no such method exists |
Returns
Array of MethodParser objects.
parseAssetName
private function parseAssetName( script: String ):void
Scans the script for an class asset name, updates assetName.
The class name is extracted from ... ‘class’ AssetName ‘extends’ ...
Parameters
| script | text of a script for a graphical asset class |
parseDimensions
private function parseDimensions( script: String ):void
Scans for scene coordinate system dimensions, updates xMin, yMin, xMax, yMax if found.
Looks for an SWF attribute with width and height defined. The coordinate system is not essential to recover the definition of a class.
Parameters
| script | text of a script for a graphical asset class |
parseFrameRate
private function parseFrameRate( script: String ):void
Scans for movie animation framerate, updates frameRate if found.
Looks for an SWF attribute with frameRate defined.
Parameters
| script | text of a script for a graphical asset class |
