Is this a good place for MTASC questions? If not, where?
If so, I have a question about some parse errors I am getting.
Previously when I wrote class constructors, I might have written it like
this:
class MyClass{
private var a_int:Number;
private var b_int:Number;
private var c_str:String;
private var d_bol:Boolean;
public function MyClass(a:Number, b:Number, c:String,
d:Boolean){
a_int = a, b_int = b, c_str = c, d_bol = d;
doStuff();
}
}
I like doing variable assignments that way in constructors because it is
succinct. But apparently using commas between variable assignments like
that causes an MTASC parse error, and I have had to format the class I
wrote previously like this instead:
class MyClass{
private var a_int:Number;
private var b_int:Number;
private var c_str:String;
private var d_bol:Boolean;
public function MyClass(a:Number, b:Number, c:String,
d:Boolean){
a_int = a;
b_int = b;
c_str = c;
d_bol = d;
doStuff();
}
}
Is doing it my original way considered bad practice? If so, why? If
not, is there a way to stop MTASC from throwing parsing errors? I know
MTASC does better error checking than the Flash 8 compiler, but this one
surprised me a little.
