Hi list, I'm working on a new version of my reflection package and saw that my class check ( obj instanceof Function && obj.constructor != null) isnt as foolproof as I thought :). For example this doesnt work for built in classes such as Stage.
I tried a lot of different solutions, even looked in other reflection packages such as PixLib, but they suffer from the same problem. It's not that big of a deal, since these classes that dont comply are usually static only classes and not passed around to loggers etc anyway, but its.. well ... pretty darn annoying ! I'm looking for a simple check isClass(obj:Object):Boolean that works:) All the cases I came up with worked for some objects and not for others: testcase: isClass(_global.mx) => should be false isClass(_global.flash) => should be false isClass(Stage) => should be true isClass(MovieClip) => should be true isClass(_global.trace) => should be false. Anyone up to a puzzle?:) greetz JC ps a simple solution is just to put in a check for Stage, Mouse, etc but I'm trying to find a solution without such 'hacks' _______________________________________________ [email protected] 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
