how can I delete all variables? 1

[timtom]

Oh hello,
Is there a quick way to delete all my global variables? I know I can do

delete variable1;
delete var2;
delete var3;

etc.
but can I just drop everything in one line of actionscript perhaps?
cheers,
Sarah

You can execute all of your code in one line, not sure if this is what you meant. But, put the

_global.

header before the variable to delete the variables throuout the whole movie.

delete _global.var1; delete _global.var2;

Thats all I can think of!

Did you really mean global variables as variables defined throughout the movie like...

_global.my_var1 = 10;
_global.my_var2 = "Hello World!";

Etc, etc...
If so, you could define a function on the first frame of your movie...

function killAllVariables(reference) {
    for (var i in reference) {
        if(typeof reference[i]=="string" ||typeof reference[i]=="number") {
            delete reference[i];
        }
    }
};

Then call this function with...

killAllVariables(_global);

Wow, thats actually some really good script! Could come in handy some time when making components or something of the like!
