Interesting! Thanks for sharing, Olaf. As I understand it, Adobe tried to be very conservative about what they put into AS3 because they wanted to avoid adding things that didn't end up in the final approved version of ES4. I think I heard that there were already some differences, and they didn't want it to go any further, if they could help it. I guess they decided to be careful about this one.
This is a cool discovery, like a little time capsule. It makes me happy that my assignment syntax is the same. I considered using "as" instead, but assignment felt better. - Josh On Wed, Sep 28, 2016 at 7:22 AM, OK <p...@olafkrueger.net> wrote: > If I understand you right you speak about "Single name aliases" [1]. > This feature would be very helpful! > Seems to me that tt was dropped from AS3 for whatever reason. > > Maybe this is helpful [2][3]. > > Thanks, > Olaf > > [1] > http://apache-flex-users.2333346.n4.nabble.com/AS3-Alias-name-for-imports- > td13245.html > [2] > http://help.adobe.com/livedocs/specs/actionscript/3/ > wwhelp/wwhimpl/js/html/wwhelp.htm?href=as3_specification106.html > [3] > http://www.sephiroth.it/weblog/archives/2007/03/ > actionscript_4_import_alias_where_is.php > > > > > > -- > View this message in context: http://apache-flex- > development.2333347.n4.nabble.com/Falcon-Proposal-for-new- > ActionScript-language-feature-Optionally-rename-an-import- > tp55355p55400.html > Sent from the Apache Flex Development mailing list archive at Nabble.com. >
