Timer vs setTimeout
- by Christophe Herreman
The docs for flash.utils.setTimeout() state:
Instead of using this method, consider
creating a Timer object, with the
specified interval, using 1 as the
repeatCount parameter (which sets the
timer to run only once).
Does anyone know if there is a (significant) advantage in doing so? Using setTimeout is a lot easier when you only need to delay 1 call.
