ActionScript 3.0 :: A Definition For The Document Class Could Not Be Found
Feb 25, 2009
I get this confusing message every time I start a new flash project and I dont know why. I understand what the message means, but its simply not true so that bugs me. My project so far consists of exactly one AS file so far: CMain.as, which contains exactly one public class: CMain. The file lives here: C:FlashProjGameasCMain.as. n my .FLA, I have set CMain as the Document class. In File->Publish Settings->ActionScript 3.0 ClassPath, I have added "C:FlashProjGameas".
When I press "OK" from this screen, I get this message: "A definition for the document class could not be found in the classpath, so one will be automatically generated in the SWF file upon export." On my last projects I think I have just ignored this message and everything worked out ok. But this time I want to know what the hell it means. My CMain class is definetly in the classpath, so what the heck is this message talking about?

I am a complete nuff nuff when it comes to AS3 so bare with me. I had a website skeleton made by a scripter. He made lots of AS files that call to each other with a few movie clips that are populated via the As files. This worked fine for me, I could update the text and image files no dramas and did so and got the website up and running.
A couple of weeks later had to update the files to add a new section adn text and images. Again all went swimmingly. Fast forward to today. Went to update the files and added a new section as per all the other ones. Everything marries up in relation to naming conventions, placement of files within folders et c but suddenly now I'm getting all these errors. 1017: The definition of base class TextItemTemplate was not found.

I've been trying to edit my sister's Flash website, which was developed by someone else, but I'm a newbie with ActionScript so am having a few difficulties. Every time I try to publish a file, I get this error:
1017: The definition of base class UIForm was not found.
I found documentation online for a similar error - regarding UIComponent - so I tried creating a new source path under ActionScript 3.0 as suggested but no luck. I'm having difficulty finding documentation online specifically for UIForm.I tried searching for the location of UIForm under program files but couldn't find it. Can anyone point me in the right direction? I'm on CS4.

I created a document class for an empty stage and would like to create an output class which is imported into the document class.Inside the output class I would like to create a textField with the methods to set and read the text.
a) empty stage with document class "tommy"
b) document class "tommy"
package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import cOutput;[code]....
I am receiving "Definition fl.controls:TextInput could not be found".I read that you need to have this in the library (I dragged a text field as classic text, input text on stage).

have some custom external .as packages that worked fine in CS3 and now when I try to compile/test the movie I get the error 1172 Definition {...} not be found. I have added the class path to my AS3.0 settings in the preferences panel and confirmed that my file is compiling as AS3.0. Here's some info:
Class Path: /Applications/MAMP/Projects/actionscript
Example file: /Applications/MAMP/Projects/actionscript/com/jassky/net/XMLPostRequest.as
import statement: import com.jassky.net.*;

I'm getting the Error 1172. Which I know is a path problem, but i've checked over my code over and over and I'm sure my path is correct and I've also put the class Path into the Actionscript Class Path settings so i'm not sure what's wrong but here goes: I'm following the Activetut+ tutorial on how to create a Brightness Editor.Link to Tutorial.
Now, in the tutorial, it tells me to script the AS3 in the Main.as file which would be linked to the main .FLA via the Document Class. Is it okay to import this class using:Or does it have to go into the Document Class? The reason I ask, is I'm importing more classes from other AS files, and if I add a Document Class, it screws it all up.

Why I'm getting this error in a actionscript project using flash Builder?
I'm not even embedding anything, I'm just extending an OSMF class 'NetStreamLoadTrait' which has some metadata, that's it. [ExcludeClass]
I'm using another OSMF project insted the one coming with the Flex SDK 4.0, but I have deleted the osmf package inside the SDK ( using the Actionscript Build Path )

File A has a MovieClip on stage that has a linkage to a class in which I import fl.video.FLVPlayback File B also attempts to import fl.video.FLVPlayback.
File B throws a COMPILE TIME error that it cannot locate the definition for fl.video.FLVPlayback. I'm noticing that my FlashDevelop also offers no syntax highlighting for that line.
Both are exporting for the same version of FlashPlayer (10). Both are being authored on the same platform, the same software (CS4).I have not messed with any Publish settings, other than that File B is associated with a Document Class.
Of interest may be that File A will eventually be loaded into File B, into the context of File B.

I'm using ActionScript 3. Developing in FlashDevelop. I get the following error when I try to do import fl.controls.Label; Definition fl.controls:Label could not be found.
I'm pretty new to Flash. I had this project working without a glitch. I must have changed something for it to stop recognizing the import. Even intelisense gives me an option to add fl.contorls.Label

I've recently acquired Flash CS4 Professional, and I've been attempting to complete some tutorials, and I'm currently in the process of doing the Object-Oriented Scrollbar. It's simple really...I've copied the code exactly and followed along exactly as he says in the movie, and for some reason the Tweener will not work. I've downloaded the Tweener zip folder, and placed the Tweener file itself into the same folder as my .fla file.

I have a FLA (say Main.FLA) document class with a child MovieClip on the stage: into the child MovieClip I load other swf files: each of the files contains its own Document Class (every swf is a somewhat independent application, say quizzes and so on).For some reason I must use the Main document class to store data (scores or so) from the child swfs loaded into the Main swf. HOW do I reference the Main class? I can't find a way.[code]and dispatch an Event this way from the loaded swf document class to the Main class:[code]Now, first of all I don't know if this could even work. Secondly, I tried to make it work by adding an event listener to my Main class but id did not work.

I am compiling my css files to swf files and loading them at run time. I have no problem compiling these and using ClassReference statements most of the time:
[Code]...
Does not work. The difference is that the HeaderBackground is a class in the same project as the css file. That does compiel fine if I move the style into my mxml file though.
I wonder if the compiler uses different source paths when compiling the css fiels or something. This is in FlashBuilder 4 build 269271 SDK 13963
