How to override a function in a dynamic class with actionscript?

This is for a playbook app.

I have two classes:

public dynamic class Bullet extends Sprite {
   public function update():void {
      x += 5;
      y += 5;
   }
}

public class BulletFactory {
   public function createFastBullet:Bullet {
      var result:Bullet = new Bullet();

      result.update = function() {
         x += 10;
         y += 10;
      }
   }
}

This is essentially what I'm trying to do. What's the best way to achieve this in actionscript?

You could solve your issue using a combination of Interfaces, extensions and overrides. The below won't compile, but should give you a starting point.

public interface IBullet {
    function update():void
}

public class DefaultBullet extends Sprite implements IBullet{
   public function update():void {
      x += 5;
      y += 5;
   }
}

public class FastBullet extends DefaultBullet implements IBullet{
   override public function update():void {
      x += 10;
      y += 10;
   }
}

public class BulletFactory {
   public function createBullet(bulletType:String):IBullet {
      var bullet:IBullet;
      if(bulletType=="fast"){
        bullet = new FastBullet();
      }else{
        bullet = new DefaultBullet();
      }
      return bullet;
   }
}
