Class & Variable Reference

I’m new to AS 3 and had a quick question about referencing a class variable value from another class.

Basically I have two classes. The one below inits a new class

public class ConfigureTripDesigner extends MovieClip
{
//public constructor//
public function ConfigureTripDesigner()
{
var tripSelector:TripSelector = new TripSelector();
trace(tripSelector.isSelectionComplete);
}
}

public class TripSelector extends MovieClip
{
var isSelectionComplete:Boolean = false;
//public constructor//
public function TripSelector ()
{
changeVariable();
}
function changeVariable():void
{
isSelectionComplete = true;
}
}

If I run a trace for the isSelectionComplete variable from the TripSelector class, I can see the value change from false to true.

However, if I trace isSelectionComplete from the TripSelector class the value is always true.

What gives? Thanks for the help, as I mentioned I’m a bit new to the OOP world and AS 3.

Thanks…GP
