Comment on Static methods 101 in AS3 revisit by Frank Wienberg

Yes, that is possible. The question is why don’t you access the static variable through the BaseClass in the first place? Maybe it does not belong to the public API?

I’ve figured it out, you can use a static getter in the subclass, that returns the static var/const from the superclass (BaseClass).

public static get MY_VAR():* { return BaseClass.MY_VAR; }

OK, thanks for the explanation, but how can I access static variables from the subclass – even if they cannot be accessed, there must be a way to do it, maybe through another method?

Would something like that work?
public function getStaticVariable(name:String):* { return this["name"]; }

One thing I have noticed, is that if a class extends another that has a static method, the subclass can call the static functions within any other function. A.test() runs both times in B. (hope my html works :] );
example:

package utils {
class A {
public static function test():void { }
}
}

package utils {
class B extends A {
public function A ():void {
test();
}
public static function run():void {
test();
}
}
}

Arjun,

I have a similar problem. Did u find any solution. I am trying to add a vbox as child. This vbox in turn has children which should be shown with some wipedown/wipeup effects. Any help is appreciated.

Comment on “a file found in the source-path must have the same package structure” by Murali Nagaraj

looking at the cryptic adobe flex docs, it requires a “DIRECTORY” not a file called ‘xxxxx’ (where xxxxx is your package name) and you place your
action script files in there.
