describeType的使用

describeType函数在adobe官方在线文档上的定义如下：生成描述ActionScript对象(命令为方法的参数)的XML对象，此方法实现ActionScript语言的反射编程概念。

这个方法的应用场景可能是这样的：

定义一个方法，解析很多邮件的消息，很多消息的内容格式又是一致的(需要实现方法的共用)，那么定义下面一系列的方法了。

public function parseEmail_1():void {}

public function parseEmail_2_3_4_5():void {}

public function parseEmail_10_11_12():void {}

…

如何根据邮件格式的消息，直接就调用了相应的函数？那首先需要有一个对象存储了该类的所有方法，然后查找到包含此id的方法，之后调用它即可。

 

示例：

建立一个名为“describeType_Test”的ActionScript工程。使用describeType(类名)即可获得到该类的所有相关信息

    </method>
  </factory>
</type>

这样，只需要获取到该xml对象下的所有method节点，然后遍历它，匹配到包含该邮件格式id的方法，使用split将方法名分隔开：parseEmail、1、2、…，第一位则为方法名，之后的便是该方法可以解析的指定格式的id，调用this[funName](paras..);
