The term is a "destructor"; and, no, ActionScript doesn't have destructors, only constructors. The closest it comes is MovieClip.onUnload()--if your class is a subclass of MovieClip, then you can just override that. If not, one common practice is to make a function called destroy(): public function destroy():Void { // Perform clean-up. delete this; } Then replace all instances of "delete instanceOfYourClass;" with "instanceOfYourClass.destroy()". ― Mike Keesey > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:flashcoders- > [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of grimmwerks > Sent: Monday, October 02, 2006 6:34 PM > To: Flashcoders mailing list > Subject: [Flashcoders] when classes die... > > Ok, I've got an app that uses a static variable; I've got 'templates' > that use x instances of this class. > > When the user loads in a new template when a previous template has > already existed, I get some 'leftover' variables. > > Is there a function that is called when a class is 'killed', ie the > opposite of when a class is birthed with 'new'? > > -- > -------[ http://www.grimmwerks.com > -------[ [EMAIL PROTECTED] > -------[ [EMAIL PROTECTED] > _______________________________________________ > Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com > To change your subscription options or search the archive: > http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders > > Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software > Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training > http://www.figleaf.com > http://training.figleaf.com _______________________________________________ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
