Re: [Flashcoders] RE: Best way to learn OO Analysis and Design with ActionScript

I battled furiously to get my head around Object-Oriented Programming with Actionscript http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0735711836/sr=8-2/qid=1156121055/ref=sr_1_2/103-4690969-4407040?ie=UTF8 only to find that looking back a lot of the explanations largely added to my confusion. IMHO your

also, I came to Flash recently (as in about 6 weeks ago) and I found it very useful to get all the information in one place, i.e. does AS2 have abstract interfaces?, is there try...catch construct for unit testing with assertions?, are classnames treated as types, can you override the constr

Re: [Flashcoders] RE: Best way to learn OO Analysis and Design with ActionScript

Man, where were all you people when I asked a similar question a few months back? :-) I think I have a couple of good project ideas to build classes for, but I just don't know where to begin. I want to make a video player, complete with a seperate browser component to view/select different catego

[Flashcoders] RE: Best way to learn OO Analysis and Design with ActionScript

welcome to the party, The basics of design patterns evolved from the timeline for me. Flash is an 'object oriented language' - that is each symbol is an independent 'thing' in the library. Learning the time line and how to do a tween came first, oooh, a moving thing on the screen. Next
