Take a look at these example:

```auto
	function loadMap():Void {
		var	xdata:XML = new XML();
			xdata.ignoreWhite = true;
			xdata.load(this.source_map);
		
		var var_temp:String;
		
		xdata.onLoad = function(success:Boolean) {
			if(success) {
				var_temp = xdata.firstChild;
			} else {
				trace("Cannot load xml file = " + this.source_map);
			}
		}
	}

```

Now, im creating a local variable **var var\_temp:String;** cause, there is no way that i can pass the values, inside the onLoad handler to a property of the class.

If i try some _ **this.some\_var** _ its reference to escope inside the onLoad handler… ☹

Any solution to get the values to a class property?
