Fair enough.
I guess we should examine how it’s being used. In my app I found 612 cases of
Language.string being used.
I should go though them and catalog when it’s being used.
One that jumped out at me is:
var qString:String = qualifiers.toXMLString();
compiles to:
var /** @type {string} */

Yes, I know. But IMO that really doesn't save anything (probably including
keystrokes) when porting, because you make this decision at c
ObjectMap has a forceEnumerable option in the constructor, so it can
automatically switch from WeakMap to Map if necessary (i.e. to use
ObjectMap.forEach).

Fair enough. :) I prefer to do something different, but I take your point.
IMO WeakMap is not that useful in js (which also applies to
ObjectMap), compared to how a Dictionary with weak keys was useful
in flash. It still has some usefulness, but not to the same degree, because
if there is any iter
ObjectMap hides the whole WeakMap vs. Map vs. Object / any stuff, so it
just seems convenient, while still trying to be performant and reducing
strong references.
Worked well for XMLNotifier.

Using ObjectMap could be an option if you want both SWF and JS code to run,
but is not really warranted IMO if the main goal is to migrate away from
SWF, because the api is the same as Map, and is indirect use of the Map -
so why add the extra overhead? Also if you can avoid switching the original
Why not use org.apache.royale.utils.ObjectMap?

I think you're right. According to the AVM2 doc (avm2overview.pdf), for
coerce_s ("Coerce a value to a string"):
"If value is null or undefined, then stringvalue is set to null"

Problem solved (for now).
One entire day to do this but necessary.
I confess that it's not the best code (many workarounds navigating to
parents, etc ...) but at the end of the day, fulfill the requirements.
The enter key moves to edit mode on the next line but with the same column
position.

It worked pretty well.
No need to emulate the Dictionary.
Thank you.

I am pretty sure Language.string is behaving correctly.
Here's a very simple example of what you get in flash player.
var something:* //undefined by default
var str1:String = something;
var str2:String = something as String;
var str3:String = String(something);
trace((str1===null),(str2===null)
Sure, if you want, Andrew. This is the way I do it currently, and in some
cases this has been done within the current framework code (e.g. in Crux
code there is some use of Map to replace Dictionary in js, iirc)
I do expect to come up with an approach that works much closer to the
original flash D
Greg, can I throw that into documentation as a workaround?

Hi Hugo,
I might change this in the near future. But for now, here is the general
'rule of thumb' that I use:
If the instance only has string keys (or int/uint/Number/Boolean keys
should be ok too) then use a plain Object. All code can pretty much then
remain unchanged.
If it is using object ins
Hi,
I see that there is no Dictionary on Royale, probably because there is a
better method.
What the approach in Royale for a Dictionary ?
Of course and JS works the same way. But Language.string is used for implicit
coercions where it might have an initial value of undefined. In that case, I
don’t think you’d usually want to be using “undefined”. You probably want “”
instead.
I don’t remember all the discussions we had around thi
Yes. It was supposed to be doing that, but some cases were missed.
The change I made was necessary to properly return empty strings.
I just made a new commit which does a better job of handling and preserving the
undefined values.
I also fixed an issue with setting null and undefined which was
Because empty strings use memory.
