[lol] code wtf of the day

[divillysausages]

Just now I've have to add a button to toggle quality in a game I'm working on. I've never had to do it before, but I lolled when I saw this.

this.stage.quality = StageQuality.LOW;
trace( this.stage.quality ); // traces "LOW"
trace( StageQuality.LOW ); // traces "low"

Makes it a bit hard to do something simple like

if( this.stage.quality == StageQuality.LOW )
   ...

Ah Flash, even after all these years, you still got it...

That's nuts. But I'm sure you've already realized you can do this:

if (this.stage.quality.toLowerCase() == StageQuality.LOW.toLowerCase())
...

Why they didn't use an enum pattern is beyond me. Or at least integer constants.
