hi, what will be the flow in the future? 1) checking for all available classname's and then replace only in case of a match $something with lz.$something 2) or replace all new $something with lz.$something except Object, Array, String, Number, or Boolean
There are many more cases then Object, Array, String, Number, or Boolean if you go into SWF Runtime, for exmple all the new Filters of SWF8 look like: new flash.display.DropShadowFilter() This Script will be part of the OpenLaszlo Compiler or as an additional Tool? sebastian 2008/7/1 Donald Anderson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > Here's the perl script (attached).
