Hi,
I'm converting some AS2 code to AS3. The code manipulates several
big, complicated data containers to produce an animation.
In AS2, the data container was a vanilla object. In AS3, for
performance gains, I turned these containers into several classes.
The problem is, at various points, I am transferring all the values
from one container to another. The variables have the same names, but
the data containers are different. For instance, in the first
container, there are points. In the second container,the
corresponding points are actually a subclass of points, one with more
properties.
Before, I could just lay the two containers side by side, then use
recursive for...in loops to transfer all the values. But for...in
loops don't work for class instances in AS3. Class info is baked into
the compiled class, and no longer stored in a memory- and cycle-
wasting object hash.
What to do?
Anyway I can access the compiled class info (looping through a
class's properties), or is that contra the entire point of AS3?
Save me from writing a long, convoluted one-off conversion function.
Thanks
Matt
