Is there an event that fires if an image already is loaded

[Thomas James Thorstensson]

Im my AssetLoaderProxy I have

 

 

public function handleImageRequested(imgStr:String):void {

trace ("image requested " + imgStr + " matching loader " +_imageDictionary[imgStr]);

loaderNameStr=_imageDictionary[imgStr];

LoaderMax.prioritize(loaderNameStr).addEventListener(LoaderEvent.COMPLETE, handleImageLoaded);

}

 

/////////////// EDIT

Can you do this : it seems to work but only for the first already loaded image ???

 

if (LoaderMax.getLoader(loaderNameStr).status == LoaderStatus.COMPLETED){

trace ("already loaded");

}

 

//////////////////////////////////// SECOND EDIT !

It worked was me and my mediator not agreeing ruling out already loaded checks due to a boolean that was set to false!

 

New question

 

I suppose you can remove an event listener like so

 

LoaderMax.getLoader(loaderNameStr).removeEventListener(LoaderEvent.COMPLETE, handleImageLoaded)

 

I get a warning in Flasbuilder but it seems the code is doing its job!

 

Hum ?

 

 

Thanks

Yep, your removeEventListener() code should work fine - what's the warning you're getting? It's probably just that getLoader() returns an untyped object so it can't verify whether or not it has a removeEventListener() method. But it does, I can assure you

 

Also, as far as dispatching a COMPLETE event if the loader has already finished loading, it actually does. But your code was adding the listener AFTER the event was dispatched. Your prioritize() method automatically called load() which in turn immediately dispatched the LoaderEvent.COMPLETE event (since the loader had already been loaded) but you added the event listener AFTER that. See what I mean? So you could just re-order your code like:

 

public function handleImageRequested(imgStr:String):void {
   trace ("image requested " + imgStr + " matching loader " +_imageDictionary[imgStr]);
   loaderNameStr = _imageDictionary[imgStr];
   var loader:LoaderCore = LoaderMax.getLoader(loaderNameStr); 
   loader.addEventListener(LoaderEvent.COMPLETE, handleImageLoaded);
   loader.prioritize();
}

 

Does that clear things up for ya?

It sure does thanks Jack!
