FLASH® LITE™ 2.x - Adobe Help and Support

Example
The following example defines the function sqr, which accepts one parameter and returns the
Math.pow(x, 2) of the parameter:
function sqr(x:Number) {
return Math.pow(x, 2);
}
var y:Number = sqr(3);
trace(y); // output: 9
If the function is defined and used in the same script, the function definition may appear
after using the function:
var y:Number = sqr(3);
trace(y); // output: 9
function sqr(x:Number) {
return Math.pow(x, 2);
}
The following function creates a LoadVars object and loads params.txt into the SWF file.
When the file successfully loads, variables loaded traces:
var myLV:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
myLV.load("params.txt");
myLV.onLoad = function(success:Boolean) {
trace("variables loaded");
}
get statement
function get property () { // your statements here }
Note: To use this keyword, you must specify ActionScript 2.0 and Flash Player 6 or later in
the Flash tab of your FLA file's Publish Settings dialog box. This keyword is supported only
when used in external script files, not in scripts written in the Actions panel.
Permits implicit getting of properties associated with objects based on classes you have defined
in external class files. Using implicit get methods lets you access properties of objects without
accessing the property directly. Implicit get/set methods are syntactic shorthand for the
Object.addProperty() method in ActionScript 1.
Parameters
property:String - The word you use to refer to the property that get accesses; this value
must be the same as the value used in the corresponding set command.
