ActionScript 2.0 Language Details
ActionScript 2.0 introduces several new programming keywords and concepts, including classes, inheritance, and interfaces. These concepts comprise what is commonly known as object-oriented programming.
Classes you create in ActionScript must be stored in separate ActionScript (AS) files; you can’t create classes in a Flash (FLA) frame or button script. Some important points about class files:
- Only one class can be defined per AS class file.
- The name of the file that contains the class must match the class name.
- ActionScript class files must be located in a folder where the Flash compiler looks for classes.
- You can combine several classes in a folder to create a package.
