I tried using syntax likeContentPlayermockContentPlayer;Where in getContentPlayer is a private member and mockContentPlayer is alias am creating, but its not working well, I doubt whether I can do like this?

Are static members slower to access than instance members in AS3?
View 1 RepliesI've worked with AMFPHP for a while, but with Adobe supporting ZendAMF, I was wondering if I should migrate.
One of the major disadvantages for AMFPHP is that class mappings need to be public, so not only does that mean public members on the PHP side, but also on the Flex side. I was wondering if it is the same case for ZendAMF.
Can ASDoc be set to document private members ala JavaDoc?

View 1 RepliesI have a class which deals with a lot of visuals, which essentially are movieclips. So I have around 50 privately declared movieclips in the class. Would it be a good idea to put them in a dictionary and retrieve them by their name (as key) , put them in an array or just leave them as they are?
My issue is the visual look of my class right now with that many private members, looks like a mess visually.
how bad is this practice? I am having trouble getting to some stuff so i am taking the easy way out
Code:
private static var _interrupted:Boolean;
public static function setInterrupted(value:Boolean):void{
_interrupted = value;
}
is there a difference between classifying a function 'private' or 'private static' in a singleton? It seems that they both do the same thing. Maybe some difference in performance?

shakedown:
1) made local.swf
2) made remote.swf which contains MyClass
3) local.swf loads in remote.swf from [URL]
how can I access MyClass.staticMember() using local.swf ? is there someway to register MyClass under local.swf after remote.swf is loaded in?
i think i'm looking for something similar to registerClass(remoteSwf.myClassObject.constructor) ;
my understanding of extending classes is that you gain all the functions and methods of that class thus You could over ride any one of them. How ever I am confused on weather or not you inherit and can over ride private methods of the class you are extending or if you have to have all methods public in an extended class.

In Flash Player runtime, is there a way I can get a list of all the static members of lass PlayerEvent.
Something like:
trace(PlayerEvent.staticMethods) // ["PLAYER_INIT", "PLAYER_MOVE", "PLAYER_USE_SKILL"]...
Is there a way to "reflect on" static members of an ActionScript object (get all the static properties/methods of that type programmatically)?
Why is that flash.utils.describeType(*) can only show non-static members?
If I created a static method. say I decide to call on other methods within that static method. Do those methods I call on need to be static as well? what If I used some of the properties. Not to store data permanently, but just within that process. Do those properties need to be static ??

View 6 RepliesI have tried declaring an interface with static methods, but I'm getting an error:
PHP Code: 1157: Interface members cannot be declared public, private, protected, or internal.
I have about 3 different classes I'd like to implement this interface and there are only two static methods that I want to define. If I remove the public and static keywords in my interface, they must also be removed from the classes or it complains about that:
PHP Code:1044: Interface method serialize in namespace net.foo:MyInterface not implemented by class net.foo:MyClass.
So I guess I should just dispense with the interface?
I'm working on a video player and I initially developed the player with everything in the .FLA file with no classes. Then I started modularizing my player into classes and realised that my classes are static methods rather than instance methods which doesn't seem to be needed in my player. My question is - is this a bad design to have all of your classes methods to be static rather than instance methods ? As I dont see the need (yet) so that's why i geared more towards static methods, is this a bad design?
View 1 Replieschanged one of my methods to static and it worked for what I was trying to do but I would like to know what is the difference between static and instance method.
What is the difference between static and instance methods?
I have a question about classes. I just learn that static means that functions and/or properties are specifics to a class, but is it a synonym of private? And why statics (not available to any instances?) properties and/or methods can have a public (available anywhere else (timeline)) access modifier? PS: I just start with classes.
View 6 RepliesThis has been a long-standing curiosity of mine, and I haven't gotten around to profiling to find out, and haven't seen it asked yet (for AS3):Let's say that I have a class:

there are classes definitions where all their methods are private my question is why are they private, because i've tried a code wherein i changed all the private access modifier to public and nothing changed!
what if you make an instance of that class with all its method private, how are you be able to access that on another class. coz i know private methods are only accessible to the class where they are declared! will the instance of that class be able to access the superclass's private methods!
on private variables, it's still not clear to me as to why make a private variable and then use a getter and setter, when you can simply make it public! are these variables called static?cause on the way i understand it private functions and private variables are static?
