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

Example
In the following example, you define a Team class. The Team class includes get/set methods
that let you retrieve and set properties within the class:
class Team {
var teamName:String;
var teamCode:String;
var teamPlayers:Array = new Array();
function Team(param_name:String, param_code:String) {
this.teamName = param_name;
this.teamCode = param_code;
}
function get name():String {
return this.teamName;
}
function set name(param_name:String):Void {
this.teamName = param_name;
}
}
Enter the following ActionScript in a frame on the Timeline:
var giants:Team = new Team("San Fran", "SFO");
trace(giants.name);
giants.name = "San Francisco";
trace(giants.name);
/* output:
San Fran San Francisco */
When you trace giants.name, you use the get method to return the value of the property.

if statement
if(condition) { statement(s); }
Evaluates a condition to determine the next action in a SWF file. If the condition is true,
Flash runs the statements that follow the condition inside curly braces ({}). If the condition is
false, Flash skips the statements inside the curly braces and runs the statements following
the curly braces. Use the if statement along with the else and else if statements to create
branching logic in your scripts.
The curly braces ({}) used to enclose the block of statements to be executed by the if
statement are not necessary if only one statement will execute.
