@tomwag: I don’t entirely agree with you there. First off, it’s mostly the people that call AS3 an Object Oriented language.

But mainly I disagree because your problem (“this simple pattern of having a property read-only except for derived classes is not supported”) has little to do with a programming-language being Object Oriented or not.

thanks for the article

it seems odd that AS3 calls itself an OOP language…but this simple pattern of having a property read-only except for derived classes is not supported…thanks Adobe!

if setter namespace is known(for example public) you can do following to go around that bug.
when you refference the setter do :
myObject.public::someProperty and compiler is happy again

Hi,

May be, you want to refer to the next code:
protected function set someProperty
