Re: [flexcoders] how do you call the super's super?

2007-03-01 Thread Anthony Lee 

Gordon's suggestion while enlightening isn't that useful since the point of
extension is to not have to touch the super.

Is there no known hack? Is it possible to bolt a new method into a top level
class?

Hi,

Sorry for the lame AS questions, but can anyone tell me how to call
the super method of the class I'm extending? ie. the grandparent and
not the parent.

Thanks,

There is no super.super syntax in AS3. What you want can only be done
indirectly, such as through a scheme like this:
 
class A
{
function foo():void { trace(1); }
}
 
class B extends A
{
function $foo():void { super.foo(); }
override function foo() { trace(2) };
}
 
class C extends B
{
// can call $foo() to execute A's foo()
}

You can't.  I wish you could, but you can't.
