    <p>Let's say I have a defined ClassA. ClassB extends ClassA and there's a Movie Clip instance on the stage linked to ClassB.</p> <p><strong>How would ClassC access the properties and methods of ClassB without extending ClassB or creating a new instance of ClassB?</strong></p> <p>The way I'm currently doing it is by referencing the stage instance linked to ClassB and then using the dot syntax to access ClassB instance variables, and this works only if the the accessed variables are public or internal, depending on what package ClassC is part of. I would like to know if there's a better, cleaner way to accomplish this.</p> <p>Edit: Code example.</p> <pre><code>package com.core.stage.classes { import flash.display.MovieClip; public class ClassA extends MovieClip { public var classAvar:uint = 0; public function ClassA() { } protected function classAfunction(funPar:uint):void { classAvar = 2 * funPar; } } } package com.core.stage.classes { import com.core.stage.classes.ClassA; public class ClassB extends ClassA { public function ClassB() { classAfunction(10); } } } package com.core.stage.classes { import flash.display.MovieClip; public class ClassC extends MovieClip { private var classBreference:*; public function ClassC() { classBreference = Object(parent); trace(classBreference.classAvar); // Outputs 20. } } } </code></pre> <p>So what I basically want to know is if there's a better way to get the value of classAvar (which was declared in ClassA, got a value after calling the method in ClassB) while working in ClassC.</p> <p><strong>Solved:</strong></p> <p>Ok, after some research and an idea I got from daniel.sedlacek, it seems that I have found the solution that best suits my needs.</p> <p>in ClassB:</p> <pre><code>private static var _instance:ClassB; public function ClassB() { // constructor _instance = this; } public static function get FUN_GetInstance():ClassB { return _instance; } </code></pre> <p>in ClassC:</p> <pre><code>private var MC_VariablesContainer:ClassB MC_VariablesContainer:MC_ClassB = ClassB.FUN_GetInstance </code></pre>

    1. COIt might be better to solve it in a different way. It's usually good to strive to make encapsulated and decoupled classes. Post some code, and we might be able to suggest improvements :)

    2. COI would've posted the code I'm working on, but it's a very complex loaders structure and I believe that in the end it would be irrelevant, instead I will try to outline what I'm looking for through some simple example code (added as an edit to question). Thank you, Jonatan!

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
