MVC and Factory Method Pattern Chapters on Adobe DEVNET

Two chapters from the ActionScript 3.0 Design Patterns book are available as a free download from devnet. Each chapter contains multiple examples. The factory method pattern chapter includes a print shop application, a sprite factory, and a shooter game that uses the factory method pattern to create different types of projectiles. The MVC chapter includes a weather map application and a car chase app.

    Hi Guys,
    I´m sure you already noticed, but I´d just like to remember you…
    The example code “Example 12-9. RootNodeView.as” has missing part on the declaration of the constructor. In the book and also in the PDF found on Adobe DEVNET


    public function RootNodeView (aModel:IModel,
    {
    super(aModel, aController);
    // register to receive key press notifications form the stage
    target.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN,
    }

    it´s definitely not difficult to complete the code on the own. But I imagined you would like to have the feedback.

    Greetings
