Interfaces allow 'Polymorphism'. Many say this is OOP's greatest
contribution to computer science.
Polymorphism occurs when a superclass stands in for a subclass. This is
extremely useful when you don't know exactly what type of class (usually a
concrete class) is needed at a specific spot within
Any thoughts on whether it's more efficient (in terms of development and
player performance) to use Singleton's (with static public 'getInstance' or
such) instead of Event's when developing mid-sized applications? (for
classes that *are* Singleton's of course). Asking this in regards to when
you kn
In regards to this part of your question:
---
If the list is scrolled or an entry is selected (it's fully populated), the
entire list renders properly, including the entry that's selected.

Can you load it behind another display object that is a copy (perhaps bitmap
snapshot) of the main stage in question?
This should fix it.

Does anyone know how to find out the bare minumum Attributes and Methods of
all built-in/intrinsic Classes being used in a SWF/AS3 application.
Something perhaps that can parse a SWF, identify what intrinsic classes are
being used and what is redundant or could be stripped out of those classes?
A
At what number of animating/moving objects do you think it's worth using
bitmap snapshot? For optimisation and fps performance.
Is there any point with a menu, say 50 items long (each item 150px wide by
50px high, containing a gradient fill, some text and a filter).
Cheers.

Not that I'm aware of.
Just use as3 inbuilt getTime() method and run it through an algorithm - then
display it however you want.
Or use server side code for similar effect - probably a little more evolved
than as3 at this stage.

How to get around the problem of Event double ups?
When somewhere within a stack of functions being executed as the result of
an Event, another Event is fired.
It seems the second Event is ignored?

Anyone have the link to that speed comparison test someone built in regards
to various technologies pulling rows from a server.
There was several including AJAX (+ something), AMFPHP and others that ran a
test for accessing 5000 rows (or close number).
The page (app) was a dark colour - like dark
Thanks Cedric. I'm using 3 methods - initialize(), reset() and destroy() for
all classes in my application.
This is to get around the processor overhead associated with Constructors
(among other reasons).
Anyway, initialize() needs to be private, so all I can think of is to use an
abstract base c
Thanks Paul / Steven.
When referring to as3 destuctors, I just meant a destory or clear method you
can call before removing references to an object.
Good to hear you can force the GC in flash player 10 / AIR. I'll take a look
for future reference.
I ask this questions because I'm building a pure
How can you force a set of classes to define a private method if Interface
members cannot be declared public, private, protected, or internal?
Create an abstract class with private method(s) that throw an error, unless
overwritten by subclasses? Is this the only way?

it will be garbage collected (making sure nowhere else in the
application makes reference to the sub class).
And further more, why is there no way to flag an object for garbage
collection and then force the garbage collector to dispose of the class?
Any thoughts on this?

So Sid,
What are the answers to your list of interviewee questions?.
I know about half of them, but would love to hear all your correct answers.
Any chance of this?

You should ask to see source/code before an interview - then you'll know
beforehand whether to proceed or not. Also, ask where they see Adobe going
and whether it'll be Apple or Google that eventually buys Adobe out? I say
Apple, but you never know with Google.
