Wow, that answer will really help me! :) What if it's not movies, but some other object that i wanna create 20 times? I thought it should get inside some kind of Array, but not sure if its this way too.
i.e. var MyTextBox:TextBox=new textBox(); what if i need N instances of that MyTextBox? Should i create an Array before that? What's the right way to put those textBoxes into the Array? I'm sorry for the basic of my question....but im quite new to AS3 and OOP, and i did use and misuse of evals a lot in AS1 and AS2. Thanx a lot for the help :) ----- Mensaje original ---- De: Josh McDonald <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Para: [email protected] Enviado: jueves, 19 de junio, 2008 14:16:50 Asunto: Re: [flexcoders] Re: string to actual actionscript code? No worries, the equivalent of eval("movie_number_" + idNumber); would be: this["movie_number_" + idNumber]; To explain, in actionscript 3 (and in Javascript), these two references are equivalent: this.someField = true; this["someField"] = true; trace("the value is " + anObject.button7) ; trace("the value is " + anObject["button7"]); Notice the fact that it's a string. You can also use numbers (this is how arrays work), and other objects, but with objects the runtime simply calls .toString() and then goes ahead with the string, IIRC. -Josh On Thu, Jun 19, 2008 at 9:20 PM, David Pariente <xxmapachexx@ yahoo.es> wrote: Thnx for the psicological help :) Tecnically i come from AS1 and AS2 where i used to create multiple copies of movieclips, and created with a name as: eval("movie_number_"+idnumber); maybe i should need an easy example of how to create multiple objects dinamically, and most important, how to access them later.

Gordon, I can live without eval() and associated evilness, but I'd sell my left testicle for the ability to mark a Proxy as extending or implementing various classes or interfaces. Mario - As for this sort of pseudo-eval that theyou're after, you could definitely cook up something similar to that without *too much* work, but I don't think it's the correct solution to whatever the actual root problem is. We need more information as to context to be more help :) -Josh On Tue, Jun 17, 2008 at 4:27 AM, Gordon Smith <[EMAIL PROTECTED] com> wrote: Why are you lost without eval()? What would you use it to do? Many developers think they need it when they really don't; there are often other ways to accomplish what they're trying to do.

They answer u about eval() cause that was what eval() was for. I used it so often in AS1 and AS2.
