Hi Gregory You should look into this article in the FlashCoders Wiki
http://www.osflash.org/flashcoders/as2#creating_a_class_instance_based_on_mo vieclip_without_a_symbol_in_the_library This is if you want to create dynamically a movie clip and then associate a class to it. If you allready have a moviclip that you want to use, you should look into Object.registerClass(³myClipID², MyClass); HTH Alain From: GregoryN <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Reply-To: Flashcoders mailing list <flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com> Date: Mon, 17 Apr 2006 17:44:23 +0400 To: Flashcoders mailing list <flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com> Subject: [Flashcoders] good OOP way to re-assign class to clip Hello Flashcoders, I have a clip (myClip_mc) associated with class, which is subclassing MovieClip (say, MyClass1). class MyClass1 extends MovieClip ... To do this, I entered class name as "AS 2.0 Class" in "Export for Actionscript" dialog. All this works OK (of course). But under some circumstances I'd like this clip to be associated with ANOTHER class (say, MyClass2). class MyClass2 extends MovieClip ... How do I acomplish this in good OOP style? Few ways I can imagine right now are: 1) myClip_mc.prototype.__proto__ = MyClass2.prototype; 2) Create an "instantiate()" method in MyClass2 to re-write all props/methods of the target clip with ones of MyClip2 (similar to EventDispatcher). Both "ways" above don't seem good from OOP point of view, though... Can anyone offer something more elegant? -- Best regards, GregoryN ================================ http://GOusable.com Flash components development.
