@Michael:
No, the assets vector will not be exposed outside the library, because
then the library cannot prevent you from modifying it without the
library knowing (which breaks the entire mapping between name and
asset.)
However, there will likely at some point be an iterator interface to
let you loop over assets without letting you modify the internal list.
Whether is a separate class, or a part of the AssetLibrary interface
remains to be decided. But I can imagine it being a separate class,
since it's probably not something you want to do very often anyway:
var it : LibraryIterator = AssetLibrary.getIterator();
var asset : IAsset;
while (asset = it.next()) {
trace(asset.name);
}
What you are doing in your example (where m is a Mesh) would crash at
the first asset that is not a mesh.
Cheers
