Hello.... I've got a situation as follows
1. I have a class called MessageStrings.as that I use for storing static
consts and variables used throughout my project.
2. Recently, we started an affiliate program where I need to make
modifications to the MessageStrings to change company names, email addresses,
etc depending on which affiliate is loading the page (from url string)
3. Instead of copying a bunch of static vars like
public static var CONTACT_US:String = "Hello, contact us by phone at:
"+PHONE;
public static var CONTACT_US_AFFILIATE:String = "Hello, contact us by
phone at: "+PHONE_AFFILIATE;
and switching all the references I have to MessageStrings for affiliate info I
would like to do
public static var CONTACT_US:String = "Hello, contact us by phone at:
"+getPhone();
and have a new variable (static var) called THE_AFFILIATE that gets set by a
static function and getPhone returns a static var depending on what
THE_AFFILIATE is set to.
where getPhone is something like this....
public static function getPhone():String {
var retPhone:String = "";
switch (THE_AFFILIATE) {
case MY_BUSINESS:
retPhone = SUPPORT_PHONE;
break;
case AFFILIATE:
retPhone = SUPPORT_PHONE_AFFILIATE;
break;
}
return retPhone;
}
So, this almost works, problem is that the class (MessageStrings) sets all the
variables intially and then when I set the Affiliate info later, the static
vars are not updated, and therefore do not reflect the text I want to see.
Is is possible to update all the variables that are affected by a change to the
affiliate? Kinda like calling the constructor again, but that won't work cause
it resets my affiliate variable?
