ActionScript 2.0 Essentials
Macromedia Flash, already the de
facto standard for delivering multimedia over the Web, is used increasingly to
develop web-based applications (so-called Rich Internet Applications).
Introduced in Flash MX 2004 and Flash MX Professional 2004, ActionScript 2.0 is
a major upgrade to Flash's scripting language, which radically improves
object-oriented development in Flash by formalizing objected-oriented
programming (OOP) syntax and methodology. Essential ActionScript 2.0, from the
author of the widely acclaimed ActionScript for Flash MX: The Definitive Guide,
covers not only ActionScript 2.0 syntax, but also object-oriented design and
object-oriented programming. This book is targeted at ActionScript developers
who want to know how ActionScript 2.0 development differs from ActionScript 1.0,
how to upgrade legacy code to ActionScript 2.0, and how to take maximum
advantage of ActionScript 2.0 and its OOP features. If you are an experienced
OOP developer coming from another language such as Java or C++, Essential
ActionScript 2.0 shows you how to leverage your OOP knowledge in Flash. Part I
teaches object-oriented concepts, syntax, and usage in ActionScript 2.0. It
covers strict datatyping, type casting, classes, objects, methods, properties,
inheritance, composition, interfaces, classpaths, packages, and exception
handling. Beyond teaching mere basics, it helps you to properly design and
structure your code. Part II teaches best practices for setting up and
architecting an object-oriented project, plus how user interface components and
movie clip subclasses fit into a well-structured Flash application. You'll learn
how to structure entire applications and exchange code with other developers to
help you build more stable, scalable, and extensible applications. Part III
teaches you to apply proven and widely accepted object-oriented programming
strategies -- known as design patterns -- to Flash.
