[Flashcoders] as3 classes var query
Hi all
I am currently learning AS3, and I seem to be a bit confused on
understanding accessing variables outside of the class it resides in.
for example:
package test {
public class test extends Sprite {
public var hello = hello;
}
}
I thought this var will be available to access from within another
class like this:
package test {
public class test2 extends Sprite {
hello = hello from another class;
}
}
---
But I get :
1120: Access of undefined property hello.
Is anyone kind enough to put me right ?
Thanks
Johnny

package test
{
public class test2 extends Sprite
{
var testInstance:test = new test;
trace(testInstance.hello);
}
}

Re: [Flashcoders] as3 classes var query
You'd need to instantiate the other class and then access it, like this:
package test {
public class test2 extends Sprite {
public function test2(){
var testInstance:test = new test();
trace(testInstance.hello);
}
}
}
Also, it's good practice to capitalise your class names: Test, Test2
rather than test, test2.

RE: [Flashcoders] as3 classes var query
You'd need to instantiate the other class and then access it,
like this:
That's one way, the other way is to use static variables:
package com
{
class MyClass
{
public static var name:String = Johnny;
//or declare as a public constant:
public static const FRUIT:String = apple;
}
}
import com.MyClass
trace(MyClass.name);
trace(MyClass.FRUIT);

Re: [Flashcoders] as3 classes var query
Ah thanks for all the help everyone.
I'm slowly coming around to classes, as has been confused about when
and when not to use classes and how to access the information from
each other. interesting.
Thanks again :)
