Howdy,
Does anyone know of some sort of tool that will allow me to optimise my
Flash 5 ActionScript by shortening all of the variable & function names?
(and preferably allow me to specify a list of keywords to ignore)
... and no, I will not do it by hand, at last count I had over 3000 lines of
code in this particular project :o)
I think I still owe:
dunno if this is true for other languages...
<tip type="Optimising ActionScript arrays" author="Lindsay Evans">
When initialising an array, then filling it with a number of values, it
takes a lot less processing time if you do it all in one go. ie:
aMyArray = [1,2,3];
is faster than:
aMyArray = new Array();
aMyArray[0] = 1;
aMyArray[1] = 2;
aMyArray[2] = 3;
or:
aMyArray = new Array();
aMyArray.push(1);
aMyArray.push(2);
aMyArray.push(3);
</tip>
