RE: [flexcoders] Re: delete class instances

[Dirk Eismann]

You'll have to stop the Timer instance, otherwise the Timer will continue to fire. For example, you could add a public stop() function to the PingTime class:

public function stop():void
{
  if (timer)
  {
    timer.stop(); 
    timer.removeEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, sayPing);
    timer = null; 
  }
}

And in the main Application:

private function stopPing():void 
{
  ping.stop();    
  ping = null;
  trace("ping: " +ping);
}

Thank you for your swift answers, but either I just don't get it, or it's
not working. I've changed the function stopPing to the following:

private function stopPing():void {
    ping = null;
    trace("ping: " +ping);
}

The trace does say (as expected) "ping: null", but it doesn't make the bad
ping go away.

Btw, there was a small mistake in my example, the click should obviously be
on the button and not the textarea.

Any other ideas/hints?
