1067: Implicit coercion of a value of type void to an unre

Jul 27, 2012 4:49 AM

Hi.

It's telling me that one is void but I don't understand. BTW I am only trying this out because somebody has written it in a game I am using. I am  a newbie so would always write out the long.handed conditional.

 

var strAnimal:String = "animal";

strAnimal = "animal" ? trace("animal"): trace("not an animal");

    Change that second line to:

     

    strAnimal == "animal" ? trace("animal"): trace("not an animal");

     

     

    The first part is supposed to be a conditional test (==), not an assignment (=)

    Brilliant - you guys know everything. It also makes it clearer about = signs.

    Cheers
