ActivityEvent

()Constructor
public function ActivityEvent(type:String, bubbles:Boolean = false, cancelable:Boolean = false, activating:Boolean = false)

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Runtime Versions: AIR 1.0 Flash Player 9

Creates an event object that contains information about activity events. Event objects are passed as parameters to Event listeners.

Parameters
type:String — The type of the event. Event listeners can access this information through the inherited type property. There is only one type of activity event: ActivityEvent.ACTIVITY.
 
bubbles:Boolean (default = false) — Determines whether the Event object participates in the bubbling phase of the event flow. Event listeners can access this information through the inherited bubbles property.
 
cancelable:Boolean (default = false) — Determines whether the Event object can be canceled. Event listeners can access this information through the inherited cancelable property.
 
activating:Boolean (default = false) — Indicates whether the device is activating (true) or deactivating (false). Event listeners can access this information through the activating property.

ACTIVITY

Constant
public static const ACTIVITY:String = "activity"

Runtime Versions: AIR 1.0 Flash Player 9

The ActivityEvent.ACTIVITY constant defines the value of the type property of an activity event object.

This event has the following properties:

PropertyValue
activatingtrue if the device is activating or false if it is deactivating.
bubblesfalse
cancelablefalse; there is no default behavior to cancel.
currentTargetThe object that is actively processing the Event object with an event listener.
targetThe object beginning or ending a session, such as a Camera or Microphone object.

Examples How to use this example
ActivityEventExample.as

The following example demonstrates the use of the ActivityEvent class by attaching an event listener method named activityHandler() to the microphone and generating text information every time the microphone generates an activity event. 

package {
    import flash.display.Sprite;
    import flash.events.ActivityEvent;
    import flash.media.Microphone;

    public class ActivityEventExample extends Sprite {
        public function ActivityEventExample() {
            var mic:Microphone = Microphone.getMicrophone();
            mic.addEventListener(ActivityEvent.ACTIVITY, activityHandler);
        }

        private function activityHandler(event:ActivityEvent):void {
            trace("event: " + event);
            trace("event.activating: " + event.activating);
        }
    }
}
