As Alex mentioned, I think things should be ready to support AMF (and/or potential other serialization/deserialization approaches) via Reflection.
I already added support for registerClassAlias, getClassByAlias, and (new) getAliasByClass,in the reflection package - note that I did not put these in the network project (which would have been consistent with flash.net.*) because for js it seemed to me that they would always be used in conjunction with Reflection API. But if others feel strongly about this, feel free to change that. I have not checked whether falcon handles [RemoteClass] meta to generate registerClassAlias calls automatically. If it does then perhaps this needs to be considered for js to use the new reflection function for this same support. Current reflection support will also allow for checking for [Transient] metadata to exclude those readwrite accessors or variables from the set of fields determined for serialization via reflection. What we do not currently have is something analogous to IExternalizable, but perhaps that could be for later (I think I may have used this only once in the past, perhaps others use it more). cheers, Greg On Fri, Oct 28, 2016 at 7:38 AM, OK <p...@olafkrueger.net> wrote: > Hey Carlos, > > > Carlos Rovira wrote > > Hi Olaf, I think is more about efficiency and optimization.
