RE: [Flashcoders] It exists in director but in flash ?
Yes, you can. Example:
//the function:
function myFunction (inputname){
trace(hello +inputname+ from myFunction);
}
//the string:
theStringOfFunction = myFunction;
//run it with a parameter too:
this[theStringOfFunction](Patrick) ;
//or:
eval(theStringOfFunction)(Patrick) ;

Subject: [Flashcoders] It exists in director but in flash ?
Is there any way in Flash 8 to tell the compiler to run a string as if
it
was a method ? See the exemple below :
var tempString:String;
tempString = anObject.doSomething()
and having the string being interpreted as a command ? I thought I
could do
that with eval but it doesn't seem to work.
I remember that with Director you could use the do command using a
string,
what was pretty convenient.
Thanks

I think this will work:
function test(){
trace(test);
}
var str:String;
str = eval(test);
Function(str).apply();

RE: [Flashcoders] It exists in director but in flash ?
Yes and it doesn't work :( I tested with an array with : aTempArray=[trace(\TEST1\),trace(\TEST2\),trace(\TEST3\)]; If I trace my array element it outputs properly the ' trace(test1) but when I do an eval on it nothing happens. It doesn't give me an error, it just doesn't run the trace. I can always do a work-around, so it's not critical in my project, but I wanted to use that concept in a sequencing class, because my project requires a lot of calls to the server, and to avoid having to update all the time the chain of sequences, I wanted to put the different methods I will need in an array of strings, and run them automatically. I guess I'll have to go with a giant switch instead.

RE: [Flashcoders] It exists in director but in flash ?
oooh, yes, that will definitely do the job ! Thanks a lot.
Like I mentioned earlier, the trace in my example was just to see if I
could use eval that way, but the whole idea is to call methods functions,
and I didn't know the apply() , so thanks a lot !

You don't need to use apply() on a separate line - just add () after the
eval, as in my example:
this[myFunctionString]();
