I have a document class, exp.as. In it is the normal:
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
public class exp extends MovieClip{
}
}
And in it, I define a function:
public function t(){
}
Now, in the main frame, I can do -
this.t();
and t();
But I can’t do exp.t() or root.t();
The problem is, once I get inside another class, ‘this’ referrers to something different and t() is undefined. The only way I know to get around this is to either:
- Make everything static
- Create a static variable in the main class to hold the non-static instance of the object
Both of those ways work, but I can’t imagine that either is the correct way… or maybe #1 is the correct way, which is to say that I was able to structure a whole application using completely static references to everything. Isn’t their just a global variable that holds a non-static instance to the main document?
