[MixMatch]

Hey all, if you ever wondered how to build your own "list variables", heres an example in action... note that my testing is limited and I have not seen how it performs with xml, loadvars, nor movies loaded into different levels of the movie. With that said, feel free to try it out and give me feedback:

Actionscript:

//global version of the function
_global.gListObjects = function(myTabs, myType) {
	if (this._name.length == 0 && typeof this == "movieclip") {
		trace("_root");
		myTabs = "\t";
	}
	for (var counter in this) {
		var myType = typeof this[counter];
		if (myType == "string") {
			trace(myTabs+counter+"=\""+this[counter]+"\"");
		} else if (myType == "number" || myType == "boolean") {
			trace(myTabs+counter+"="+this[counter]);
		} else if (myType == "function") {
			if (counter == "listObjects") {
				//this is invisible cuz I don't want it to always show
			} else {
				trace(myTabs+"function "+counter);
			}
		} else {
			trace(myTabs+myType+" "+counter);
			this[counter].listObjects(myTabs + "\t", myType);
		}
	}
};
//
//global function being attatched to all necessary objects
movieclip.prototype.listObjects = _global.gListObjects;
array.prototype.listObjects = _global.gListObjects;
object.prototype.listObjects = _global.gListObjects;
loadvars.prototype.listObjects = _global.gListObjects;
xml.prototype.listObjects = _global.gListObjects;
//
//setting a bunch of variables
this.time = 50;
this.createEmptyMovieClip("mc1", 1);
this.mc1.createTextField("textFiel", 1, 5, 5, 30, 10);
this.mc1.myArray = new Array(5, "TOM");
//
//actual function call
listObjects();
