MovieClip.new using curly braces instead of parenthesis?

kamcknig

I noticed in the documents that MovieClip.new uses {} instead of parenthesis. Is this a lua thing? Or a gideros thing? Why is it using curly braces instead of parenthesis?

hnim

that's lua thing. these 2 function calls return same result:

function test(params) print("params length: ", #params) end   test({"a", "b", "c"}) test{"a", "b", "c"}

params length: 3 params length: 3

@kamcknig as @hnim stated, thats basically a shorthand for passing table as an parameter.
