For some reason I’ve found it hard to find a simple and easy to modify Multiple Loader Class. Be it images, swfs, xml, or maybe a custom implementation like loading items into a “Screen” (a class i use for managing pages and transition), this load queue will tell the overall progress as well as individual progress for the item current loading.

Import com.tonp.utils.LoadQueue;var my_xml:XML = new XML();
 
var mc_drop:MovieClip = createEmptyMovieClip(“mc_drop”,1);
 
Var lq:LoadQueue = new LoadQueue();
 
lq.add(“image”, “images/1.jpg”, mc_drop, {});
 
lq.add(“image”, “xml/test.xml”, my_xml, {});
 
lq.onLoadInit = Delegate.create(this, onLoadInit);

lq.start()

Callback functions are fired by the LoadQueue Object are in two sections, events fired for the current item in the queue, and events for the overall progress of the queue:

Item Events

onLoadItemStart
onLoadItemError
onLoadItemProgress
onLoadItemComplete
onTotalLoadComplete

Overall Events

onLoadStart
onLoadProgress
onLoadComplete
onLoadError

The functions return attributes similar to the LoadMovie() Object where possible.
