Hi List,
I have the following piece of code:
function getShowMenuFunction (menuID:String):Function {
return Delegate.create (this,
function (evt) {
var loc = null;
if (SimpleTriggerEvent (evt) == null) {
loc = {x:_root._xmouse,
y:_root._ymouse};
} else {
loc = SimpleTriggerEvent
(evt).getGlobalCoords();
}
var theMenu:MenuView = MenuView
(this.menuManager.getItemByID (menuID));
theMenu.show (loc.x, loc.y);
}
)
}
What it does is, it returns a function that when called, shows a menu
corresponding with the given id.
The function will be called somewhere else at which point a
SimpleTriggerEvent (triggered by a button for example) will be passed.
Now... It works, BUT I was surprised it did, especially with respect to the
menuID field.
Looking at the parameter passed (menuID) and the line : var theMenu:MenuView
= MenuView (this.menuManager.getItemByID (menuID));
I am wondering if this is a valid way to do this, or did I just get lucky
and should I approach the passing of the menuID param another way? Seems
like a perfect case of programming by coincidence which Im trying to
avoid:).
