| Class | public class Stopwatch |
| Inheritance | Stopwatch  fl.core.UIComponent |
This class implements a stopwatch that can be started, paused, and reset.
It does not subclass timer, it just uses a timer object. The resolution property
is the resolution of the stopwatch (minimum value for checking if time has elapsed). When you
need to optimize precision, you should adjust resolution to a resolution that is at most half of
the shortest interval you need to measure.
The class has one event, by default called "onPulse" (but this can
be changed in the component parameter panel, or programmatically by setting evtPulse).
| Property | Defined By | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| active : Boolean
Set this value to start or stop the timing interval. | Stopwatch | ||
| evtPulse : String = onPulse
This property holds the string name of the event. | Stopwatch | ||
| pulseInterval : int
This property indicates the interval at which to generate pulse events when the stopwatch is active. | Stopwatch | ||
| _resolution : int = 100 | Stopwatch | ||
| resolution : int
This property holds the resolution of the timer. | Stopwatch | ||

pulseInterval:intThis property indicates the interval at which to generate pulse events when the stopwatch is active. Use 0 to mean don't generate pulses at all.
public function get pulseInterval():int public function set pulseInterval(value:int):void| resolution | property |
resolution:intThis property holds the resolution of the timer. This must be set to the pulse interval at the maximum. It determines how often we check to see that the stopwatch has advanced.

public function Stopwatch()
| configUI | () | method |
override protected function configUI():voidconfigUI Get the display objects created in preparation of launch. Note that we get called before our constructor, and before we are notified that we are on the stage!
| destroy | () | method |
public function destroy():voidRemove this component's associated listeners and memory.
| draw | () | method |
override protected function draw():void
| getTime | () | method |
public function getTime():NumberRetrieve the current time of the stopwatch.

| pause | () | method |
public function pause():voidPause the stopwatch.
| reset | () | method |
public function reset():voidReset the stopwatch.
| resetStopwatchParameters | () | method |
protected function resetStopwatchParameters():voidCalled when someone has changed a stopwatch parameter. If the stopwatch is running, we pause it, reset the values, then restart. If the stopwatch is not active, we don't need to do anything (parameters are set outside us).
| start | () | method |
public function start():voidActivate the stopwatch.
| timerElapsed | () | method |
protected function timerElapsed(te:EventWithData):voidThis is called on timer interrupts. Decide if we should issue a pulse.
Parameters
te:EventWithData |
| onPulse | Event |
Event generated at a user-controllable interval while the stopwatch is running.
