Re: [flexcoders] error while extending dictionary error ..
Hmph... Before I do that, Mayur have you double checked everything?
I don't wanna look like more of a clueless douche than usual, so I made a
couple of changes to the code you submitted and got this:
---
mydict.as
package {
import flash.utils.Dictionary;
public class mydict extends Dictionary
{
publicstatic var instance:mydict // done to maintain singleton
class
function mydict (){
super();
}
public static function getInstance():mydict {
if (instance == null) instance = new mydict();
return instance;
}
public function addTodict(id:int,val:String):void{
mydict [id] = val // its giving me error here...can not create
proeprty 26..(if id was 26..) on mydict
}
}
}
--- testbed.mxml
http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"; layout="absolute"
xmlns:ns1="*" creationComplete="test()">
---
And it seems to work fine for me. So I'm happy to file a bug, but please
give me the code you were actually using that failed with a copy-paste,
rather than re-typing it from memory.

On the plus side, I'm glad you tried, as weak references stuff will come
in handy, and I only noticed it as a feature of Dictionary when I
double-checked that it wasn't final just now.
More importantly, since there appears to be voodoo that stops you from

Re: [flexcoders] error while extending dictionary error ..
On the plus side, I'm glad you tried, as weak references stuff will come in
handy, and I only noticed it as a feature of Dictionary when I
double-checked that it wasn't final just now.
More importantly, since there appears to be voodoo that stops you from
subclassing it, should it be counted as a bug that it's *not* final?

RE: [flexcoders] error while extending dictionary error ..
I hadn't heard of anyone doing it before so it was possible there was a
bug in there somewhere, and it didn't seem necessary as you ended up
anyway.

:) :) sure ...there is nothing that I could not do without extending
dictionary...
with singleTon , I wanted to have the only once reference across the

I tried once extending it..and ran into a problem..and then solved it by
not sub classing it (directly returning)..

Subject: [flexcoders] error while extending dictionary error ..
Hi all,
I have class extending a dictionary class:
public class mydict extends Dictionary
{
publicstatic instance:mydict // done to maintain singleton
class
function mydict (){
super();
}
public static funtion getInstance():mydict {
return instance;
}
function addTodict(id:int,val:String):void{
mydict [id] = val // its giving me error here...can not create
proeprty 26..(if id was 26..) on mydict
}
}
Any work around??

Re: [flexcoders] error while extending dictionary error ..
I'm not speaking from authority, but I'm 99% sure that Dictionary either
partly is, or relies on some native code that lives in the flash plug-in
rather than in the Flex SDK library in order to provide the weakKeys
functionality, and that's why you can't subclass it.

If it's not giving away any business secrets, why on earth would you want to
