Question

I am using a Cairngorm MVC architecture for my current project.

I have several commands which use the same type of function that returns a value. I would like to have this function in one place, and reuse it, rather than duplicate the code in each command. What is the best way to do this?

Answer 1

Create a static class or static method in one of your Cairngorm classes.

class MyStatic {     public static function myFunction(value:String):String     {         return 'Returning ' + value;     } } 

Then where you want to use your function:

import MyStatic;  var str:String = MyStatic.myFunction('test'); 

Another option is to create a top level function (a la ‘trace’). Check out this post I wrote here.
