When U want D.eval evaluate String like this:
import mx.events.CloseEvent;
import mx.controls.Alert;
function callback(ce: CloseEvent)
{
trace(ce)
}
Alert.show("text", "title", 4, null, callback);
U will get an error:
Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert r1.deval.rt::FunctionDef@50ef781 to Function.
So, it heavily impact the expression capacity of D.eval
For the sake of this problem, I've made a static method to propose a solution:
package utils
{
import mx.controls.Alert;
import mx.events.CloseEvent;
import r1.deval.D;
import r1.deval.rt.FunctionDef;
public class Platform
{
public static function convert(callback: FunctionDef): Function
{
return function(param: * = null, ... params): * {
if (params) {
params.splice(0, 0, param);
} else {
params = new Array();
if (param) {
params.push(param);
}
}
return D.eval("callback.run(params)", {"callback": callback, "params": params});
}
}
}
}
With this function, U now can write code as followed:
import utils.Platform;
import mx.events.CloseEvent;
import mx.controls.Alert;
function callback(ce: CloseEvent)
{
trace(ce)
}
Alert.show("text", "title", 4, null, Platform.convert(callback));
And the demo source is attached below.
Because this question always raised in English, and no one replied, so I write this blog by English.
