Create two objects from the Product class

You'll create a new FLA file, then create two objects from the Product class.

  1. Open a new Flash document and save it in the same location where you saved Product.as.
  2. In the new document, select Frame 1 in the Timeline. In the Actions panel, create two objects from the Product class using the data shown in the following table (the ActionScript that you'll create appears after the table).

    Instance name

    Data

    pedals

    id

    0

    prodName

    Clipless Pedals

    description

    Excellent cleat engagement

    handleBars

    id

    1

    prodName

    ATB

    description

    Available in comfort and aero design

  3. Verify that you created the objects as follows:
    trace (pedals.getDescription ());
    var handleBars:Product = new Product (1, "ATB", "Available in comfort and aero design");
    
  4. Trace the description property of pedals:
    var pedals:Product=new Product(0,"Clipless Pedals","Excellent cleat engagement");
    
  5. Save and test the document. You should see the description of pedals in the Output panel.

Note: An example finished file of the document you just created, named handson2.fla, is located in your finished files folder. For the path, see Set up your workspace.
