Hi,

Just a quick summary of the analogy between Lingo and OOP concepts.

1) Parent script and Behavior both are classes whose instances can be
created.
2) Constructors:
   On new me  -  parent.
   On beginSprite me - behavior.
3) Initialization of member variables:
   parameters passed to "on new me, x, y" -  parent.
   GPDL - behavior.
4) Both parent and behavior can have member functions in the form of
handlers [custom as well as event] .
5) Object creation:
   x = new(script "parent")     -  parent.
   Attaching the behavior manually to the sprite. - behavior.


HTH,

- Sandy.

Thank you Irv for your detailed reply.

However, does this mean:

i. a behavior is a class?
