LoaderClassStatic

Package:
Class:
Inheritance:
biz.flashscript.utils
public class LoaderClassStatic
Sprite
The LoaderClassStatic class allows loading movies and bitmaps, all objects usually loaded with the Loader class. The difference to the LoaderClass is that this class will allow to unload the urlLoader and create the urlLoader only once. This is very suitable for slideshows or any applications, where unloading a Loader is required. Use the constructor new LoaderClassStatic() to create a new LoaderClassStatic object and add parameters as desired.
