Where did attachSound<\/code> go in AS3?<\/p>\n

It’s almost the same as attachMovie (I already covered attachMovie: read attachMovie post<\/a>)<\/p>\n

I was never very good in sound, and I didn’t use it a lot in my applications\/animations. That changed with my new job. But for the people that remember attachSound in AS2, this is how its done in AS3…<\/p>\n

This post is only handy when you link sound from the library, both AS2 and AS3. Dynamically loaded sound (MP3) is another story. <\/p>\n

What has the ActionScript 2.0 Migration<\/a> to say about this subject:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
ActionScript 2.0 <\/strong><\/td>\nActionScript 3.0 <\/strong><\/td>\nComments<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
attachSound() Method <\/td>\nRemoved<\/td>\nCreate an instance of a Sound subclass that is associated with sound data; for example, by using new Sound() instead.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n

And I say again: Removed… wtf? \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

In AS2 it will work like this:<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

AS2<\/h3>\n

this is code directly from the Flash Help files:<\/p>\n

The following example attaches the sound logoff_id to my_sound. A sound in the library has the linkage identifier logoff_id. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

For this example you need a sound in the library (right-click<\/em> >> Linkage… >> activate ‘Export for ActionScript’) with the Indentifier ‘logoff_id<\/code>‘ and this AS2 code placed in the root<\/em><\/p>\n

example #1<\/b>
\n[as]\/\/ #1
\nvar my_sound:Sound = new Sound();
\nmy_sound.attachSound(“logoff_id”);
\nmy_sound.start();
\n[\/as]<\/p>\n

Oke, now in AS3:<\/p>\n

AS3<\/h3>\n

For consistency I’m using the same names\/linkage.
\nFor this example you need a sound in the library (right-click<\/em> >> Linkage… >> activate ‘Export for ActionScript’) with the Indentifier ‘logoff_id<\/code>‘ and this AS2 code placed in the root<\/em><\/p>\n

\nvar my_sound:logoff_id = new logoff_id();
\nvar channel:SoundChannel = my_sound.play();

I hope this will clear up some issues you have, happy coding \ud83d\ude09 <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
