Alpha mask using Actionscript 3.0

Have you ever tried to create an alpha mask using Actionscript 3.0?
The thing is reachable with the method copyChannel of the BitmapData class.

  1. Load an external image
  2. Create a new instance of BitmapData (bitmap_data) and assign it to bitmapData property of the external bitmap
  3. Create a new instance of BitmapData (bitmap_data_copy) with same size of external bitmap
  4. Copy the pixels of external bitmap in the new instance bitmap_data_copy
  5. Use the dispose method on bitmap_data to free memory
  6. Create a mask form using a Shape
  7. Create a new instance of BitmapData (bitmap_data_shape) the same size of external image and use draw method over shape
  8. bitmap_data_copy uses the method copyChannel on bitmap_data_shape
  9. Give bitmap_data_copy to property bitmapData of external image
