  • Flex profiling - what is [enterFrameEvent] doing?

    - by Herms
    I've been tasked with finding (and potentially fixing) some serious performance problems with a Flex application that was delivered to us. The application will consistently take up 50 to 100% of the CPU at times when it is simply idling and shouldn't be doing anything. My first step was to run the profiler that comes with FlexBuilder. I expected to find some method that was taking up most of the time, showing me where the bottleneck was. However, I got something unexpected. The top 4 methods were: [enterFrameEvent] - 84% cumulative, 32% self time [reap] - 20% cumulative and self time [tincan] - 8% cumulative and self time global.isNaN - 4% cumulative and self time All other methods had less than 1% for both cumulative and self time. From what I've found online, the [bracketed methods] are what the profiler lists when it doesn't have an actual Flex method to show. I saw someone claim that [tincan] is the processing of RTMP requests, and I assume [reap] is the garbage collector. Does anyone know what [enterFrameEvent] is actually doing? I assume it's essentially the "main" function for the event loop, so the high cumulative time is expected. But why is the self time so high? What's actually going on? I didn't expect the player internals to be taking up so much time, especially since nothing is actually happening in the app (and there are no UI updates going on). Is there any good way to find dig into what's happening? I know something is going on that shouldn't be (it looks like there must be some kind of busy wait or other runaway loop), but the profiler isn't giving me any results that I was expecting. My next step is going to be to start adding debug trace statements in various places to try and track down what's actually happening, but I feel like there has to be a better way.

  • Can't remove Enter_Frame and stop TimerEvent

    - by Hwang
    I wanted to remove an ENTER_FRAME object and stopping an TimerEvent when I click on a button, and rerun ENTER_FRAME and TimerEvent when I click on another button. I've tried removeAddEventListener and stop() for the time, but I won't work. Any idea whats the problem here? package{ import flash.display.MovieClip; import flash.display.DisplayObject; import flash.events.Event; import flash.events.TimerEvent; import flash.utils.Timer; public class clockFunction extends MovieClip { private var clock:clockMC=new clockMC(); private var countdownTimer:Timer; //seconds private var secTop1=clock.second.top1.digit; private var secTop2=clock.second.top2.digit; private var secBot1=clock.second.bot1.digit; private var secBot2=clock.second.bot2.digit; private var seconds:Number; private var minutes:Number; private var hours:Number; private var days:Number; public function clockFunction():void { decrease(); addChild(clock); } private function decrease():void { countdownTimer=new Timer(1000); //Adding an event listener to the timer object countdownTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER,updateTime); //Initializing timer object //countdownTimer.start(); } private function updateTime(event:TimerEvent):void { decreasTimerFunction(); clock.second.play(); if (seconds==1) { clock.minute.play(); } if ((minutes==1)&&(seconds==1)) { clock.hour.play(); } if ((hours==1)&&(minutes==1)&&(seconds==1)) { clock.day.play(); } } //Setting it back to its correct time so it won't have number changing in between of flipping issues. private function detect(event:Event):void { //seconds var sec1=seconds; var sec2=seconds-1; if (sec1<10) { sec1="0"+sec1; } if (sec2<10) { sec2="0"+sec2; } if (sec1==00) { sec2=59; } secTop1.text=sec1; secTop2.text=sec2; secBot1.text=sec1; secBot2.text=sec2; } public function startTime():void { addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,detect); countdownTimer.start(); trace("start"); } public function stopTime():void { countdownTimer.stop(); removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,detect); trace("stop"); } private function decreasTimerFunction():void { //Create a date object for Christmas Morning var endTime:Date=new Date(2010,3,26,20,0,0); //Current date object var now:Date=new Date(); // Set the difference between the two date and times in milliseconds var timeDiff:Number=endTime.getTime()-now.getTime(); seconds=Math.floor(timeDiff/1000); minutes=Math.floor(seconds/60); hours=Math.floor(minutes/60); days=Math.floor(hours/24); // Set the remainder of the division vars above hours%=24; minutes%=60; seconds%=60; } } }

  • check keyboard state without using KeyboardEvent in AS3

    - by Pieter888
    Is it possible to check for pressed keys without using the KeyboardEvent? I have an ENTER_FRAME event setup called enterFrameHandler and I want to check within the function enterFrameHandler if any keys are pressed. normally when using a KeyboardEvent I could check for keys easily using a switch that checks the KeyCode of the event, but in an ENTER_FRAME event this isn't possible for me. Is there any other way of checking the keyboard's state within the ENTER_FRAME event?

  • How to display buttons after enterframe event is over in Corona?

    - by user1463542
    I am trying to display two buttons called countd_again and main_menu after my enterframe event is over. I can't see those buttons after enterframe event is over,though. Can you check my code,please? And also i want to add new addListener for the buttons using director and scene. module(..., package.seeall) function new() local localGroup = display.newGroup(); display.setStatusBar(display.HiddenStatusBar) local background = display.newImage("background.png") start=os.time() cnt=1 local countd_again = display.newImage("yeniden.png") countd_again.x=100 countd_again.y=100 countd_again.isVisible= false; countd_again.alpha=0; countd_again.scene="helloWorld"; local main_menu= display.newImage("anamenu.png") main_menu.x=100 main_menu.y=300 main_menu.isVisible=false; main_menu.alpha=0; main_menu.scene="helloWorld" -- listener function local function onEveryFrame( event ) if (cnt~=0) then cnt= 3-(os.time()-start) minute = math.floor(cnt/60) second=cnt%60 --print(minute,second) minTxt=display.newText(minute,50,50,nil,100) secTxt=display.newText(second,250,50,nil,100) transition.to(minTxt, {time=100, alpha=0}) transition.to(secTxt,{time=100, alpha=0}) else Runtime: removeEventListener("enterFrame",onEveryFrame) countd_again.isVisible=true; main_menu.isVisible=true; transition.to(countd_again,{time=500,alpha=1}); transition.to(main_menu,{time=500,alpha=1}); countd_again: addEventListener("touch", changeScene) main_menu: addEventListener("touch", changeScene) end end -- assign the above function as an "enterFrame" listener Runtime:addEventListener( "enterFrame", onEveryFrame ) function changeScene(e) if(e.phase=="ended") then director:changeScene(e.target.scene); end end countd_again: addEventListener("touch", changeScene) main_menu: addEventListener("touch", changeScene) localGroup: insert(countd_again) localGroup:insert(main_menu) localGroup:insert(background) return localGroup; end
