Xray's trace used this method Scott and it's worked well.
my only issue was that adding a property to an object might cause some "issue" or "bug" with someone's app. However, to this day, it's not caused any problems that I'm aware of ;) I liked Keith's way of doing it, because I was able to send different levels of recursion for different types of objects. If I send in a MovieClip, can just have it do 2-3 levels deep and htat's usually enough. But for a true object/array, I'll let it go at 254 or whatever. This will be, btw, configurable at runtime with Xray's interface. On 8/24/06, Scott Hyndman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
I would mark each object (by actually assigning the cloned object as a property of the original) as I go through each individual clone operation, and keep a running array of what is being marked. If I hit something that is already marked, I will use the clone instead of copying the same object again (because it's hanging off the original). When I'm finished, I'd remove all the temporary properties from the originals. This requires two method instead of one, and is a bit more CPU intensive, but it won't break. I'd also be sure to special case the handling of date objects. The alternative is to shallow clone, which does not recursively copy object properties, and instead assigns the reference held by the original to the clone.
