'MovieClip.onUnload' event handler is not called when the MovieClip
instance is deleted with 'MovieClip.removeMovieClip()' method from
within the callback function of 'setInterval'. However the event is
triggered with 'MovieClip.unloadMovie()' method. It is not invoked when
the instance is disappeared by going to a frame where it does not exit,
too.

// _root
// Frame action
// _root.my_mc is placed
my_mc.onUnload = function() {
trace("unload");
};
nID = setInterval(xClearMovieClip, 1000);
function xClearMovieClip() {
// my_mc.unloadMovie(); // calls unload
// my_mc does not exist in the next frame
// _root.nextFrame(); // does not call unload
my_mc.swapDepths(1);
my_mc.removeMovieClip(); // does not call unload
}
this.stop();

If the MovieClip is removed from a Button, MovieClip or frame actions,
'MovieClip.onUnload' is triggered. It does not seem to be called when
the MovieClip is removed from within some callback functions. The
same issue is reproduced when the callback function is set to a
LoadVars or XML instance.

I disagree. The MovieClip.onUnload() is triggered if the instance is
disappearing by going to a frame where it does not exist, but
unfortunately after the MovieClip is gone. It seemed therefore you can't
read properties frome the MovieClip anymore - for example to backup
variables populating the clip.

I make unload file. It's very easy :-)

// onUnloadTest.as
class onUnloadTest extends MovieClip
{
function onUnloadTest()
{
this.onLoad = this.initial;
}
function onPress()
{
this._x += 20;
if (this._x>400)
{
trace("400보다크다");
this.removeMovieClip();
//this._visible = false;
}
}
function initial()
{
trace("this = "+this);
this._x = 125;
this._y = 100;
}
}
// onUnload.fla - flash document(main)
// this fils have to Library Linkage circle symbol... stage is empty..
this.attachMovie("circle", "circle", 1);
circle.onUnload = function()
{
trace("unload")
_level.unload_check.text = "unload 이벤트 발생"
}
// unload_check is dynamic textfield...


enjoy~... :-)
