object : Object
The corresponding values for each
value1,2,...N
Returns
-
Object
Usage 1: An Object object.
Usage 2: Nothing, except when a function has an explicit
return type is specified in the function implementation.
Example
The first line of the following code creates an empty object using the object initializer ({})
operator; the second line creates a new object using a constructor function:
var object:Object = {};
var object:Object = new Object();
The following example creates an object
, ,
address city state
var account:Object = {name:"Macromedia, Inc.", address:"600 Townsend
Street", city:"San Francisco", state:"California", zip:"94103",
balance:"1000"};
for (i in account) {
trace("account." + i + " = " + account[i]);
}
The following example shows how array and object initializers can be nested within each
other:
var person:Object = {name:"Gina Vechio", children:["Ruby", "Chickie",
"Puppa"]};
The following example uses the information in the previous example and produces the same
result using constructor functions:
var person:Object = new Object();
person.name = "Gina Vechio";
person.children = new Array();
person.children[0] = "Ruby";
person.children[1] = "Chickie";
person.children[2] = "Puppa";
