Yes, they are different.r

Actionscript dictionary says 'eq' is deprecated. It just compares string representations, so what you might be doing is comparing a number to it's string representation (User input, perhaps?): http://www.adobe.com/support/flash/action_scripts/actionscript_dictionary/actionscript_dictionary198.html


What == does depends on what sort of data you're comparing. Again, from the dictionary:

The definition of equal depends on the data type of the parameter:

Numbers and Boolean values are compared by value, and are considered equal if they have the same value. String expressions are equal if they have the same number of characters and the characters are identical. Variables, objects, arrays, and functions are compared by reference. Two variables are equal if they refer to the same object, array, or function. Two separate arrays are never considered equal, even if they have the same number of elements.

I have had some code that will not work using the "==" and then does using the "eq".


Any issues?

Just curious what the difference is.
