When I try to include code from the external file "test.as" I get an error: "ActionScript 2.0 class scripts may only define class or interface constructs." "test.as" contains a simple function:

I saw it in this site...[URL].. it says "Include code from external sources using #include".umm... does it mean I can use C code, etc. within flash??

View 1 RepliesOn the main timeline I have a movie clip ("Sound Full") on it. The movie clip is being used as a complex rollover button for "revealing" a full sound interface. When the mouse rolls over, the word "Sound" fades out and the panel appears. When rolled off, of course it goes in reverse. I've seen it done in many places...including www.iso50.com.
Anyway, on the timeline for "Sound Full", I have three layers being used for the following...
1) Actions
2) An instance of a graphic symbol ("Sound Text")
3) An instance of a movie clip symbol ("Sound Player)
The Actions are a few lines of code to rewind or play based on whether or not the mouse is over the area or not (as learned directly from [url] And for the instances, I just used motion tweens to have "Sound Text" fading out as "Sound Player" fades in. It's like 5 frames in all. Very quick effect.
The timeline for "Sound Player" is only one frame. Each piece of the player has its own layer (play button, stop button, etc.) and the top layer (also reserved for Actions) has a single line of actionscript where I have written:
[code]...
The problem is that when I test the whole movie...the rollover effects works beautifully, but the buttons in the interface aren't clickable or working at all. I discovered that if I simply tested "Sound Player" by itself...it works perfectly, except there's obviously no rollover effect since "Sound Player" is nested inside of the movie "Sound Full" which is what does the effect.
Does this make sense? Hopefully it does. Anyway, so my question is...
1) Am I missing a basic fundamental rule of Flash in order to make it run smoothly?
2) Is the "tweening" of "Sound Player" possibly messing it up? (Remember, I noticed that when the include line for the external actionscript file was in the same frame as the indiv. player buttons it worked fine.
3) Do you need to see the .fla file to help me out?
4) Bottomline...can you help me out?
I am using an include file, and I've noticed that sometimes the the fla file does not refresh new changes to my include file. When exporting with "Ctrl, Enter" Is Flash loading the include file from the cache?
View 3 RepliesI'm building Action Script project in Flash Builder. No flex, no third party libs. Pure actionscript - hierarchy of packages and classes. How do I include a plain external .as file, which is not a package or class, but just a set of statements?
View 1 RepliesI have a series of AS3 classes that I want to install into the default directory that Flash looks for when, in code, one writes: import com.flashsim.FStEng.Three.*;
In AS2, there is the Classes/ directory within the Configuration folder. Very easy, nice. In AS3, that folder is not consulted, and I understand the Flash IDE does some kind of internal mapping.
I have created a SWC and added it to my Library path. However, I would like to package the SWC in a (code-only) component and put it in a folder that Flash is, by default, looking at to consult swc's. Alternatively, if there were an "include" directory, I could put the as files. However, when I try to put the SWC in the Configuration folder's Libraries, or ActionScript 3.0/libs (the "libs" I had to create), or I put the as files in the Include folder, my Flash code cannot access the stuff being imported.
is it possible to include text files to be used as code. I would like to have different files to hold some important codes like player stats but didnt know if i could include that file then get the stat from it.

I have a scrollbar that I grabbed off a resources site. (code below)I want it so that whenever I put the cursor on the scollbar to move it that the graphical information under the scrollbar comes on (either reveal or opacity to 100%). At the moment the little thumbnails under the scrollbar are on all the time and area bit of a distraction (they are meant to assist in the use of the scrollbar by minimising searching behaviour).[code]

Is it possible at all yet to have an iframe inside your SWF file that loads a website with no external code..?or what about a html parser like this: as3htmlparser.sourceforge.net .can this parser do something like im asking..? or are cross site xml policies needed for such operations..?
im trying to find a way to check an external URL for specific data, but am finding it virtually impossible because of needed cross site domain policy's..im trying to accomplish this with only internal AS3 code and no server side code..
I had to use a setter...how would I implement that into my code, On my external AS file for the coin I have the following:
package
{
import flash.display.MovieClip
import flash.events.*;[code]....
And in the main movie I made a dynamic text box gave it an instance name of "score" and in my action script I wrote:
score.text = String(coin.coinsCollected);
I have a flex application which contains different feature that includes google maps, twitter, facebook etc.
Currently I have hardcoded api keys in the code it self but I want to use a properties file/config file where I can put such things and use anywhere I want in the application.
Is it possible to achieve this in flex? I am using swiz framework. Is it possible to achieve this using this framework?
I've really struggling to understand where to go next I have a file called data.as which contains a URL with a unquire id on for example index.php?id=6957 however depending on which computer the exe projector will be running on the id will be changed in the data file alone.
However when i generate the exe projector it caches the url and wont recheck for any changes in the url.
This is the AS i currnelty have, What i would like it to do is reload the the include data.as everytime it goes to this frame with the below on.

I have downloaded some external actionscript library in a form of a bunch of folders with .as files that have the following folder structure:
com/helper_lib1/*.as
com/helper_lib2/*.as
com/primary_lib/LibClass.as <- primary lib I want to use
Lib.as has the following code:
package com.primary_lib{
import com.helper_lib1.*;
import com.helper_lib2.*;
public class LibClass extends MovieClip{.....
Now I have some fla project where I want to use this com/primary_lib/lib.as, something like:
import com.primary_lib.LibClass;
var test:LibClass = new LibClass();...
How to include this library into my project and where should I put all those files? I already tried putting them into every possible folder but I always get definition com.primary_lib:LibClass could not be found error.
I'm naturally a PHP coder, but I have to use flash for a part of a project.I was wondering if I have files such as mainsite.swf and page1content.swf, is there a way to simply include the page1content.swf file into a predefined area on the mainsite.swf file (as in PHP's include)?Also, would it be possible to use this flash "include" to embed external swf's?Finally, ideally I'd be able to merge these files together, but from what I've read, it's a tricky business, with filenames, referencing etc, so this is optional.
View 1 RepliesI am loading the actionscript for my flash file from an external .as file. But it seems no matter what layer i place the #include "code.as" It always loads on top. I need to know if there is a way to get it to load to a different layer.
View 5 RepliesI have created many games using a set of mutidimensional arrays. It is now time for me to make them external arrays to simplify some things. I did so, at first, using the #include. However, this loads the arrays at compile time.My goal is to house the arrays in an external file that is called when the game is loaded, NOT when it is compiled. In this way, the same game could be used with multiple different arrays without me constantly having to recompile it each time. It could just look for a file called "yourArray.as" or something and use that when it is run.
I am not very familiar with XML or javascript, so was trying to figure out how to do this with the arrays that I have already created without having to decode them and put them into another language first, only to have to change them back to actionscript later.
I'm building an as3 only web application and want to be able to include external html content within a flash 'window'. In AIR there is the flash.html.HTMLLoader class which makes this possible.
Can anyone point to an example of this being done in a flash as opposed to AIR application?

I need a preloader to include an external .swf (iPhone_334x500.swf) that is dynamically added later in the timeline. Currently, the preloader goes to 100% and then begins to load the external swf before completing and going to frame 2. Rather than just appear to sit at 100% for 20 secs while it is still loading my external swf, I would like to include the external swf's load time in the preloader data.
This is my "preloader" code on frame 1, which is empty except for the AS. (Just a basic bar and percent preloader.) I included all of my code just in case, so please ignore the font embedding and masking if it makes it easier.

This is driving me insane, because I actually had it working once and now I can't do it.
I have a .txt file that contains:
Code:
&solutionslink=/solutions/index.hml
In my .fla, attached to my button I have the following:
Code:
on (release)
{
getURL(solutionslink);
}
But when I hit the link I get //webserver/undefined instead of //webserver/solutions.html
I've done a trace and I get "/solutions/index.html"
I have used PHP Code:#include 'asfile.as' But it doesn't work in my sig. Any ideas how I could make it work?.
