Chaning Text via Script

Hello !
I try to use the 4.6 ui system ,what's wrong on my script .

Code (JavaScript):

1. import UnityEngine.UI ;
2. import UnityEngine.UI.Text ;
3.  
4. public var test : Text ;
5.  
6. function Start () {
7.  
8. test = GetComponent.<Text>() ;
9. }
10.  
11. function Update () {
12.  
13. test = "caca" ;
14. }

Cannot convert 'String' to 'UnityEngine.UI.Text'.

thanks

   Code (JavaScript):

   1. import UnityEngine.UI ;
   2. import UnityEngine.UI.Text ;
   3. public var test : Text ;
   4. function Start () {
   5. test = GetComponent.<Text>() ;
   6. }
   7. function Update () {
   8. test.text = "caca" ;
   9. }

 

Since you're using Javascript / Unityscript use...

Code (JavaScript):

1. GetComponent(Text);

Notice there is no fullstop between GetComponent and the brackets. Also the type is provided within the brackets.

<> generics is used for C# GetComponent.
