RE: [flexcoders] How to get the property names from Actionscript object like java reflection

[Gordon Smith]

You can use the function flash.utils.describeType(instance) to find out the public property and method names in an instance.  It will also tell you the name of the instance's class. If the class name is all you need, flash.utils.getQualifiedClassName() is much faster than describeType().   describeType returns an XML instance, so you should learn how to use the E4X features of ActionScript 3 to extract the property names.   Once you know a property name, you can then use instance[propName] to get the value of a property in the instance.   - Gordon   From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:flexcoders@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of santharao246 Sent: Friday, August 04, 2006 12:20 AM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: [flexcoders] How to get the property names from Actionscript object like java reflection   Hi, I tried to construct Tree with Actionscript object.Root should be name of the object and childrens should be properties and their values of that object.That's why I tried to get the property names and class name of that given object in Flex20.
