yes. this is an example of a private class. but as someone earlier
mentioned, you shouldn't ever _need_ to use them. and it would be more
appropriate not to use them in production code. using the internal
namespace gives you some restriction, and you could even use your own
namespace for restriction but that's quite uncommon as well.
for reference..
- you cannot add a namespace to this 'private' class and should result in
a compile error if you do. (ex. public class CustomClient) therefore, it
must always be defined as 'class ClassName' with no namespace.
- any classes that you need within this 'private' class must be imported
outside the package
package com {
// code
}
import flash.display.Sprite
class MySprite {
// code
}
- and if some outside object gets a reference to it, you should be able to
access public functions and properties so long as you do not try to cast
the object as anything other than Object.
in my experience, i have yet to feel the need for a pseudo 'private' class.
the internal namespace serves me well most and in a few occasions a custom
namespace was required.
good luck :)
