How to specify number type when initialize array directly

Question

I need to initialize an array using direct initializing (ActionScript 3). Like this:

private var aa: Array;

function init() {

    aa = [0x0050, 0x00ff, 0xff22];

}

I guess aa will contain array of numbers of any type that compiler wants. But I need them to be type of "int". How should I tell that for compiler?

The Array class will not only contain any number type, it will contain any combination of types like

aa = ['apple', new MovieClip (), 123, 22.55]

Use the built-in Vector class which is a typed Array essentially. You can read more at the official page.

var v:Vector.<int> = new Vector.<int> ();

Array cannot be typed. You can use Vector instead of Array. This will be looks like:

private var aa:Vector.<int>;

function init():void {
    aa = new <int>[0x0050, 0x00ff, 0xff22];
}
