ActionScript 3.0 :: 1061 Error (not Defined) When Call A Method Of A Self Defined Class
Feb 9, 2010I am using flex builder 3.2, Action Script 3 and develop for Flash Player 10 and am quite new to it. when I call a method of a self defined class, I get the 1061 error (not defined). But the class and the method exist and are public, so what the hell am I doing wrong? Flash Builder is even offering me this method in the auto-completion, so at least the builder knows it... I have already tried cleaning the project (as this is the common source of strange errors when working with java/eclipse),
edit: solved... The problem was that a package had the same name as the variable I used for the class. Very strange error message, thumbs down for this .
Actionscript 3 :: Calling A Method, Which Is Defined In Another Class, From Main Class Gives Error 1120?

The Main class calls a function, which is defined in a Second class.I'm getting the following error:Error 1120: Access of undefined property myFunctionBasically, I am creating buttons in the Main class that will add a corresponding Child to an Object in the Second class (if you click one button, child x1 will be added, if you click another button, child x2 will be added, and so forth).Here's the relevant code for the Main.as file:

ActionScript 3.0 :: MovieClip References From A Class?
Jul 15, 2009I have a files that has movie clips and nested movie clips on the stage. I am now writing a class and want to give the MCs event handlers and other properties.
When I do something like the following: myMC_mc.MyOtherMC_mc.mouseEnabled = false;
I get the error: 1120: Access of undefined property myMC_mc.
I added this to the top of my class and it seems to take away the error, but I thought this was not needed in AS3 anymore.
private var myMC_mc:MovieClip;
private var myMC_mc.MyOtherMC_mc:MovieClip;
What do I have to do to not get the error? How is this done right?

Professional :: Accessing A Variable Defined In One Class From Another Class
Mar 14, 2011I've only been programming in as3 for a couple months, and so far I've written several compositional classes that take MovieClips as inputs to handle behaviors and interactions in a simple game I'm creating. One problem I keep coming upon is that I'd love to access the custom variables I define within one class from another class. In the game I'm creating, Main.as is my document class, from which I invoke a class called 'Level1.as' which invokes all the other classes I've written.Below I've pasted my class 'DieLikeThePhishes'. For example, I would love to know the syntax for accessing the boolean variable 'phish1BeenHit' (line 31) from another class. I've tried the dot syntax you would use to access a MovieClip inside another MovieClip and it doesn't seem to be working for me.[code]

ActionScript 3.0 :: Manipulating Class References In A Array?
Feb 27, 2010i retrieve a list of instances located in a array to manipulate them in a variable holder. Normally, the operations can be made between two instances stored in a simple variable to variable fashion and it works realy fast.I analysed two main operations: retrieving references in a array to a variable and get or set a value from the variable reference.Here are the objects used to perform the test operation:
var v4:Vector.<Person>= new Vector.<Person>();//List of Persons instance
var refHolder:Person; //Typed referencevar refHolder2:*; //Not typed reference
Test #1: looping 200 000 times and only retrieving references from the array v4.[code]........
So my conclusion with that test is that with a typed reference you spend more time assigning a reference than manipulating a value from the reference With a not typed reference, the time spent is in manipulating the reference in the variable.Which one should i use or what should i do to have better performance with manipulating references from arrays?
Here are the files i used to test this:
reference.swf //Online example
reference.zip //Source file
ActionScript 2.0 :: References To Variables Inside A Class

ActionScript 2.0 :: Class References Are Still There After Unloading Object?

I have tried, unloading the swf's, removing the mc_Dropper and re-attaching it, re-declaring the variable testObj as null before declaring the class,

View 1 RepliesActionScript 2.0 :: Using Class Defined In External SWF?
Jul 7, 2008I have two SWF files loader.swf and external.swf, external.swf is sitting on a remote server and I load it up from loader.swf using MovieClipLoader. external.swf includes a class definition for SomeClass by including a .as file, which also sits on the remote server. External.swf defines a method that returns an instance of SomeClass.
Once I've loaded up external.swf via loader.swf I can call the function that returns an instance of SomeClass. The problem is that laoder.swf seems to require a local copy of the as fiel that defines the class, rather than being able to receive the information it needs from external.swf, I really need to keep this class definition on the remote server, and not have a copy of it locally. Is thre any way I can encapsulate this within external.swf? I'm free to cahnge whatever I like.

May 22, 2010I'm trying to set the height of a vertical bar (activityBar) but it does not appear to do anything. i have tried something similar with the whole component, but setting the dimensions does nothing (even in the mxml used to instantiate the class). Indeed, I've added transparent graphics just to give the component some dimensions
FYI: I'm trying to create a mic activity bar that will respond to the mic by simply setting the height of the activityBar child (which seems to me to be more efficient than redrawing the graphics each time).

ActionScript 3 :: Instantiate Class From String - Variable Not Defined

flash.utils.getDefinitionByName():
var myClass:Class = getDefinitionByName("package.className") as Class;

ActionScript 3 :: Variable Flash UI - MouseCursor Class Not Defined
Jan 16, 2012This is quite strange to me since the MouseCursor class is being used as static.
Mouse.cursor = MouseCursor.BUTTON;
This is what I am using the MouseCursor class as and hence it is static. We got this error posted by a customer and the customer has also attached a screenshot of the error.
ReferenceError: Error #1065: Variable flash.ui::MouseCursor is not defined
I first assumed that this could be perhaps because he was running an older version of Flash Player ( older than v10 ). But his screenshot clearly shows that it is running version 10 of the flash player.

Oct 22, 2009Ive got a flash file linking to a FMS, its just going to be a little game, all connects fine and I have a chat client working through this. My problem is when i come to use classes to import movieclips ect...
When i set the main Class name in the properties menu and play the swf, NetStatusEvent and SyncEvent are give me the following error...
1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant
If i remove the main Class name the swf connects to the server fine, or if i remove the code for the connection to the server and play the swf my movieclip attaches and behaves as the class files intended.
i may be doing a fundamental error here but i really cant see it and its annoying with the 2 aspects running independently but not together.
ActionScript 2.0 :: Reffering To This From Function Defined Inside Class?
Jan 18, 2006Code:
class className () {
//constructor
function className(targetmc,linkId) {
[code]....
My question is how can I set up an interval when I click on a button that is created from within the class.
I need my function updater to keep repeating untill I clear the interval.The only way I can figure out is to give the full path like this._parent._parent.instanceName.updater inside the setInterval, but although this works I think is just dumb to hardcode the instace name of the class. I could of course try to pass the instance name as a parameter, but I would really love to find out the smart way to do this (by the book).
ActionScript 3.0 :: ReferenceError: Error #1065: Variable <Class> Is Not Defined??

ReferenceError: Error #1065: Variable <Class> is not defined.I have changed the name of all clases with the same name as

I have also changed the name of the main class.I have created a new empty .fla to copy and paste all the elements of the library,BUT I DO NOT STILL GET TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM.
Actionscript 3 - FlashBuilder Edit Class Of Symbol Defined In Flash IDE?
Feb 21, 2012When coding in the Flash IDE, i very often use the following procedure to create specialized versions of MovieClip classes:I design my object in the IDE, for example, i add two buttons and give them the instance names "btn1" and "btn2". Then i select them together and convert them to a symbol. I then select Export for ActionScript and give them a classname, let's say "MyClass".Then I go and write a specialized MyClass.as for it, like this:
public class MyClass extends MovieClip{
private var _button1:Button;
private var _button2:Button;
[code]....
(ps: i know that i wouldn't have to assign the values to the private variables _button1 and _button2 and instead could directly make calls to btn1, but I like to use only Typesafe variables in my code)
This works very well in Flash IDE. when I create a new instance of MyClass() it will contain all the elements that i positioned in the Flash IDE when defining the Symbol. This is very convenient and straight forward.
Now I want to do the same in FlashBuilder.For this i designed the MyClass Symbol as before in Flash IDE, gave it the classname MyClass and then select the library symbol and export it to MyClass.SWC
In Flash Builder i add MyClass.SWC to the buildpath and I write a MyClass.as with the same code as in the Flash IDE example. but this time, the code won't work. on
_button1 = this["btn1"];
i will get an Error #1069 stating that "btn1" was not defined.So - how to do this properly if developing with Flash Builder? PS: i use the default package in Flash IDE when setting the Classname for the symbol as well as in FlashBuilder for the as file.

May 12, 2011I have a class file defined in my package as MyGlobals.as.[code] (I have tried adding/removing "static" and "dynamic" to no effect.)I am trying to call a touch event from the main timeline in this way:myObject.addEventListener(TouchEvent.TOUCH_BEGIN, MyGlobals.myFunctionName);(I have tried removing the class name to no effect.)When I compile I get the error 1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: TouchEvent. This error occurs on function definitions in the class file.What syntax/concept am I getting wrong? The functions were working fine when I was using constants in the timeline, but I need to be able to reuse these functions over and over again, so I wanted them to be able to take touch event variables so that I didn't have to write a different function for every touch event.I tried googling "error 1046" but I can't find anything useful.
