dynamic class ... no correct generation

[JohnDoe]

Hi,

in ActionScript, you can define classes as "dynamic" class, which means that methods and attributes can be added during runtime, which will not cause a runtime error (if you do not define a class as "dynamic" and try to add a method or attribute, it will result in a runtime error).
Now when I reverse enginer my class sources, model around in EA and generate source for all classes from EA, all "dynamic" prefixes are lost !

Does EA make use of the Actionscript-dynamic construct or is it something that is being lost during reverse egineering process ?

Thanks for clearing this up

Hi folks,

just digged a little deeper into the code generation templates of Actionscript. In the "class declaration" section seems to be a hint pointing to the solution:

[...]
%classTag:"dynamic" == "true" ? "dynamic"%
[...]

IMHO there should be a corresponding switch at the properties panel. But where is that "classTag"-switch located ?

Thanks for your help !

Sorry folks,

all cleared up. Needless to say, that I am a EA newbie, but a big big fan now.

Tagged values are to be found in the tabbed values panel, which means that dynamic can be easily configured there.

Thanks for listening
