[osflash] clearInterval quandry

[Jim Tann]

When you use the setInterval function it looses the reference to the
object it is in so pass in the object as an argument.

 

class com.package.etc.SomeClass {

public var _timer:Number;

...

_timer = setInterval(someFunction, 1, this );

...

public function someFunction(objParent):Void
{
clearInterval(objParent ._timer ) 
trace( "inSomeFunction" );
}

 

I think you get the idea, I've not used setInterval that much and this
isn't exactly the most elegant solution but I think it is what you are
looking for.

This makes it all go away:

Just make sure your interval is declared as a var in your class...
