Aerial as3 config-alt

[cesaric]

I was thinking of an as3 compliment to config-alt.xml. How about something like:

public class Aerial
{
    public static const DEBUG_MODE:Boolean = true;
        
    public static const SERVER:Aerial = new Aerial("acme.com", "dev.acme.com");
    public static const SERVER_PROTOCOL:Aerial = new Aerial("https://", "http://");
    public static const SERVER_URL:String = SERVER_PROTOCOL + SERVER + "/server.php";
        
    public static const USE_ENCRYPTION:Boolean = false;

    private var _value:*;
    private var _altValue:*;
        
    public function Aerial(value:*, altValue:* = null)
    {
        _value = value;
        _altValue = altValue;
    }
        
    public function toString():String
    {
        return String(DEBUG_MODE && _altValue ? _altValue : _value);
    }
        
    public function valueOf():Object
    {
        return (DEBUG_MODE && _altValue ? _altValue : _value);
    }

}

It's a drop-in replacement for any existing projects that are only using string constants. Other types like Boolean will need to implement the 'valueOf()' to retrieve the proper type.
