I am looking to get as close as I can to parsing out an AS3 file into objects or XML. For instance, imagine the following class:
package {
class SomeClass extends AnotherClass {
private var someVariable:Number
public function someMethod(someParameter:Number = 4):void {
var someLocalVariable:Number = someParameter * (2 + someVariable);
}
}
}
When parsed, it might be something like:
<package name="">
<class id="783" name="SomeClass" extendsId="782">
<variable id="784" visibility="private" type="Number"/>
<function id="785" name="someMethod" returnType="void">
<parameter id="786" name="someParameter" type="Number">
<expression>
<number value="4"/>
</expression>
</parameter>
<variable id="787" name="someLocalVariable" type="Number"/>
<code>
<assign toId="787">
<expression>
<variable id="786"/>
<operator type="*"/>
<expression>
<number value="2"/>
<operator type="+"/>
<variable id="786"/>
</expression>
</expression>
</assign>
</code>
</function>
</class>
</package>
.. even if I don't get a nice, neat xml structure like this, even if it could just parse AS3 to some kind of capacity, it would be way beyond where I am now.
Any thoughts?
Thanks, Eric
