ActionScript 3.0 :: Document Class Error #2136
Dec 22, 2010
in Flash CS3 I've this DocumentClass:
package { import flash.display.MovieClip; public class DocumentClass extends MovieClip {
public function DocumentClass() { trace("document class created"); } }}
This actually works, but I want to have the possibility to re-instance the DocumentClass (because I want to restart a game and the Main class is the DocumentClass).In the first frame I have:
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, restart);function restart(evt:MouseEvent){ var d = new DocumentClass();}
But this code (I simplified my situation, but the result is the same) throws an error:
Error: Error #2136: The SWF file file:///E|/Documents%20and%20Settings/Pepper/My%20Documents/FlashDeve lopment/PepperGame.swf contains invalid data at DocumentClass/restart()/frame1()
What can I do to restart my game by calling the DocumentClass point of entry? Is this possibile?

I created something that'll allow me to have a character and walk with it, but I did this all in the document class. And because this is going to be more complicated I wanted to move that to a Character class. So I did this:
[code]...
Now the issue is when is on the line in my character class that calls the new Character(); Because when I comment it out, I don't get it anymore.I get this error: Error: Error #2136: The SWF file ..../vs.swf contains invalid data.at VelunaStory()I don't think it's anything inside the Character class because I tried commenting out all the functionality so it's just a shell of a class and I still get this error.

I am getting runtime error #2136 'The SWF file at %1 contains invalid data' (I know, %1 is a reference to the file producing the error) All I did was change some button graphics to movie clip types and have solved all the type mismatch and other syntax errors. This is a file I have been working on and posting about. This is getting annoying. What would be causing this type of error??

I am working in Flash CS4 with AS3.
I have a TextPage.fla file that contains a dynamic text field (name: PageTitle) as an instance on the stage. In the document class (TextPage) I set the text of PageTitle according to some XML. This all works fine.
I have another fla file, SpecialTextPage.fla, and that also has the PageTitle dynamic text field on the stage.
I now try to have the SpecialTextPage document class inherit from Textpage:
public class SpecialTextPage extends TextPage
{
...
}
but I get a "1120: Access of undefined property PageTitle." error when trying to publish SpecialTextPage. The error location is given as TextPage.as
As a workaround I can just copy the whole TextPage.as file and add in the extra things I need in SpecialTextPage.as but I'd obviously prefer it if I could just extend it.
I got the feeling I am not quite understanding the relationship between flash's objects on the stage and the document class.

I got an error like "Incorrect number of arguments.. Expected 0." when I was trying to make an instance of a user-defined class that I've written in the document class of my project.Here's the line in my document class:private var myNotice:myNoticeClass = new myNoticeClass(this);An untyped parameter is supposed to be the only argument to the constructor method of class myNoticeClass and the constructor is something like this
public function myNoticeClass(ref:*)

I am dispatching an event from one document class and listening for it via another document class.My code in class A.
Code:
this.dispatchEvent(new MYEvent(MyEvent.APERTURE_DONE));
trace("Dispatching APERTURE_DONE");
my code in class B.
Code:
addEventListener(MyEvent.APERTURE_DONE, onDoorsOpen,true);
trace("Lisetning for APERTURE_DONE");
[code]....
My listener is registering before the event is dispatched, based on my output window, however I never get the "Open Doors" trace statement to fire.

I built a little game in the spare time.I've a DocumentClass and four other classes. Once I realized I could not restart the game when finished playing, I thought I should create a new instance of the main class (DocumentClass) to launch it again.The problem is that, by doing so, I get Error #2136,"The SWF file contains invalid data". What happens?

I have a problem with creating instances from classes created from embedded data taken from an external .swf which has loaded into its library various images exported to ActionScript as BitmapData.What confounds me is that, of 22 images that I'm loading, 14 of them work fine and can be instantiated and displayed to the screen in a test program. The rest of them throw Error #2136, "The SWF file contains invalid data."I'm using Flash CS4 with Flex 3.4.
-----
Attached is a .zip of a few files:
library_tester.fla - contains the code for testing the library
Assets/GridGame/grid_Library.fla - contains the library
[code]....
Right now, the code in library_tester hits the error when it attempts to create Logo after creating two other variables set onto the stage.

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.

how to make a dynamic unfilled and filled circle. that will take input from a slider to dertermine how much of the circle is drawn. I wanted to use this for a preloader. Unlike the author I would like to use it inside of a document class. I am getting 1061: Call to a possibly undefined method createEmptyMovieClip through a reference with static type document. and 1120: Access of undefined property circ1. The second is caused from the first. How would I get this to work in my document class?
//original code
// x: circles center x, y: circles center y
// a1: first angle, a2: angle to draw to, r: radius
// dir: direction; 1 for clockwise -1 for counter clockwise

I'm trying to make a slide-show that adjusts to the width or height of the stage, and eventually, of the web browser window. I was able to load and resize a picture by writing code on the timeline, but I got the Error #1009 (Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference) when I put this slide show into another movie clip loader (which chooses between different swf pages of the website, with the purpose of keeping the swf file sizes down). By the way, my "slide-show" loads the picture fine. When I use the movie clip loader to load this "slide-show" it works too. Only when I use the Flash Player to open it, it gives me the Error 1009. I looked around on actionscript.org, and everyone seems to be recommending the folowing code (or something like it):[code]
I also ran into some information about document classes and I figure maybe I should be using document classes to make this stuff more modular and reusable. So I put my slide-show code into an .as file, importing all the flash.xxx.* classes, and put it in a package and class and constructor function... in the same directory as my swf file, and set it as the document class to a blank fla file. Then I tested it and all I got was a blank swf. This is without the Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE code. I guess I don't know how to get the document class thingy working either. So my question is, can someone tell me how I can change my slide-show code into a working document class without the Error 1009?r?[code]

Using Flash CS5 Professional I have created a symbol, dragged it onto the stage, and given it an instance name of GreenLight1. If I want to make this visible from the document class, I can simply do the GreenLight1.visible=true; and poof it's good to go when I test the file. As long as I stay in the document class I am good to go, but now I'm trying to move to another class and hitting ALL kinds of trouble just trying to get Flash to allow me to access this simple object. All I am looking to do is have this GreenLight1 go invisible (visible=false) when a certain condition occurs in this new class and Flash just won't let me access GreenLight1 at all. Things I've tried thus far:
stage is passed to the class and is referenced by _stage and is working just fine when I do _stage.addchild or anything like that. So I have tried "_stage.GreenLight1.visible=false;" and I get "ReferenceError: Error #1069: Property GreenLight1 not found on flash.display.Stage and there is no default value." My document class extends Sprite, so I figured I'd try the root function. So I tried "Sprite(root).GreenLight1.visible=false;" and I get "1119: Access of possibly undefined property GreenLight1 through a reference with static type flash.display:Sprite." I tried to create the Resource class as described therein. To which I came across the same problem that I started with in that it doesn't know what GreenLight1 is to begin with so I got "1120: Access of undefined property GreenLight1." Here is my code for Resource.as (am I supposed to pass something to this class from the document class?)

If I have a Document class that extends MovieClip, and I want to use it as the basis for another Document class, is it possible to create a subclass that extends the main document class and use that for a different FLA?
For example,
fla1.fla has a document class of MyMainClass:
public class MyMainClass extends MovieClip
fla2.fla has a document class of MySubClass:
public class MySubClass extends MyMainClass
I've tried, but now I'm getting errors that all of my variables that reference stage instances aren't being found.

Ok, this is one of those walls that I know once I can jump over it, I will be a much happier developer again.
I've done tons of reading, and think I have a firm understanding that the general consensus is that if you want to reference something, it needs to be added to the display list, using addChild().
I hate to be defiant, but what if I don't want to?
Or at the very least, what if I want to add a movieclip class to the stage using addChild, and then reference objects inside it?
It is much easier this way than what most people recommend - adding 15 objects via addChild, then setting the x and y for the, etc.
That said, I'm all about using classes and using as3 the way it was meant to be used. So what this is, is a best practices question I guess.
HERE ARE THE STEPS I'M TRYING:
- Create new flash document
- Draw graphic symbol bg, with text field over it, select them, convert to movieclip symbol, and export class name "box", then delete it from stage
- Add document class .as file, which simply adds that class "box" from the library, to the display list using a simple addChild()
- Set a name for that box using box.name = "test" let's say
- Do a simple trace like the following - "getChildByName('test').textFieldName" - it shows up great
- So then, I'll now try to set the text by doing this - getChildByName('test').textFieldName.text = "yo";
That last line above, is what doesn't work. I know I'm referencing wrong, but how would a pro as3 developer, reference something on the stage within a movieclip class, from the document class?
