package{
import flash.display.Sprite;
public class Main extends Sprite{
public function Main(){
var aInstance = new A( );
aInstance.m(); // Displays: A's m( ) was called
var bInstance = new B( );
bInstance.m(); // Displays: B's m( ) was called
}
}
}
class A {
public function m ( ) {
trace("A's m( ) was called");
}
}
class B extends A {
// Override the superclass's method m( )
override public function m ( ) {
trace("B's m( ) was called");
}
}
