Hey all,
A long while ago I read that the constructor is interpreted, unlike
the rest of the class methods, which are compiled. Is that still true?
thanks,

Hi,
I am not sure about the "interpreted" bit - I can't remember to
well, but Colin Moock's AS3 book mentioned not putting too much code in
a constructor because of some constraint on the system - instead you
should farm out initialization to another function, e.g.
public class MyClass {
public function MyClass() {
_init();
}
private function _init():void {
trace("doing lots of setup");
//...
trace("finished setup...");
}
}
