I'm more of a C# developer, I knew AS2 and quite enjoyed it, AS3 makes me rage.
I'm trying to load a custom class into my flash project in cs5.
error: 1172: Definition daycare.Forms could not be found.[code]...
Is there any way to auto-import as3 classes (internal/intrinsic Flash Player classes at least) using Emacs ?
Looked for as3-mode and actionscript-mode but nothing working was found. as3-mode can import class if it is opened in buffer (but not *.mxml files)
I've created a base class to house some basic functions I'd like to have across several movie clips in a game I'm making, however, when I link a custom class to the same movie clip I get the message; "The base class will not be used because the class specified is already defined and extends its own subclass. If you wish to use the base class, specify a class name in the Class field that will be auto-generated or enter the default base class 'flash.display.MovieClip' in the Base Class field." I removed the 'extends MovieClip' inside the Class but it still shows the message. Does this mean that I cannot use a custom class and a custom base class on a movie clip?
View 2 RepliesI tried to import a class in a .as file and I had strange behaviors that I cannot explain. First of, I tried to get work a senocular class by importing it locally his script in the same directory of my main .as class.
package{
import flash.display.*;
import flash.net.*;
import flash.events.*;
import duplicateDisplayObject;
There was no error returned from the compiler saying not found but there was one telling my class is still undefined as when I try to make the class work. (possibly undefined method). So I did it with the old fashion I found in some demos, placing the .as file in a com/senocular/display/ folder:
package {
import flash.display.*;
import flash.net.*;
import flash.events.*;
import com.senocular.display.duplicateDisplayObject;
And then no errors. The compiler recognize the class and execute it.
I'm starting to experiment with writing / importing my own classes to better modularize the code.
After trial and error it seems to me that I always have to define classes in a self-defined package as static, otherwise they cannot be accessed.
I suppose I need to import an special class to use data types as integer, long or double from my own class. But i don't know what is the correct class I have to import?

Is it not importing the same things over and over again into the same flash file? Making the swf bigger and slower?

View 1 Repliesi am tryin to impor the following classes in my FlashDevelop project, import fl.transitions.Tween; and fl.transitions.easing.*; however, in my flashdevelop project i can't seem to find this, i can only seem to find the flash.XXX classes. What do i need to do to gain access to the fl.XXX classes? do i need to download a new sdk or change my ide to something else?

When I point my code to import an external classes such as:
import flash.display.*;
my understanding is that its referencing something within the flash directory to load up the display classes.
In other instances I create a "com.whatever" directory to store other classes that my code can point to.
Well I was running through the Kirupa tutorial (displaying google maps in flash) and I noticed in the code it says "import [url]..." the swf works just fine but where is it grabbing the google classes from if I didnt create the directory?
Just wondering what classes I need to import into my external as fiule to make the following code work:
public static var loader:Loader = newLoader(); loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.INIT, fontLoaded); loader.load(new URLRequest("font.swf"));
Is it possible call out side folder classes like "../../com". previously iam using include. this way iam using "../../com/app.as". now iam import com folder classes how can i import?

How can I import all files and classes into my AIR bundle... it must take a note that I created first a flex project, and set it's main class as Actionscript (.as) . When I build a release all my imports (org) etc.. are not included in the .AIR installer... i have checked this by installing the app and then after show package contents, notice that the diretory structure exists but it doesn't include any of other .as used as imports...

I just installed the trial version of 4.5 of flash builder, migrating from 4.0 and I am encountering quite a frustrating problem. For some reason in which I can not peg, FB refuses to compile anything with an import from an external class, like greensock, bulk loader etc. I keep getting a 1172: Definition could not be found for any import from my external class AS3 folder on my harddrive.
Now I did edit my build path in the project and include the AS3 folder there as I usually do in past FB projects. Even code hinting works when typing in the import lines and even making new objects from those imports. But every time I save or try to compile, such errors appear on each one consistently. This is coming from a fresh install of 4.5 btw on any Flash Professional project and I would like to use it but I can't seem to get around such a fundamental problem.
The header says it all. I am trying to import a couple of classes without attaching a document class to the fla file. Is this possible? I have the class path set as appropriate (I think) in the publish settings since my fla is located inside a swf folder and my classes folder is located outside the swf folder. Its how my project is organized.
Class path set: "..classes"
Before starting an class or code, you should put all your import statements..
Now I have flash application, which offers a search feature which relies on some pretty huge classes. The user is unlikely to use this feature. However, importing those classes anyway adds some pretty large kbs to my application. Is there a way to import these classes at runtime ONLY IF the user chooses to use this feature?
how to get a Class file up and going in Flash and that works fine but say I want to import other classes. I try "import testCass" above in my import statements section of my as file and that doesn't work. What do I have to do to get that to work?
View 6 RepliesI use multiple custom classes like tweenlite, csvparse, papervision and many more. The way I do is put them in one central location and edit Flash CS4 Actionscript 3.0 settings to include that location.The problem I face is even though I don't use all the classes in a project, flash CS4 compiles every single class that is in that central location eventually increasing my compile time by minutes.

View 8 RepliesI created two custom class called fooClass.as and HelloClass.as Then I want to import both of these Custom Classes in my WorkSpace.fla file
so I do the following I open up my WorkSpace.fla file Press F9 to open up the actionScript panel in FrameOne LayerOne and I type in
import fooClass
import HelloClass
then I want to start using these two classes so I do the following
var work:fooClass = new fooClass();
var space:HelloClass = new HelloClass();
Technically speaking when I type in var work: I should see list of classes inside the library including my custom Class fooClass and HelloClass However after the colon I see other build in classes but not fooClass.
It works in CS5 but not CS4. How do I get to work it in CS4 so that I can use the custom class I created to show up in the library.
i wrote a custom class. i tried to use tween class in my class but it gives error.
it start with like this

Is there any way to get a list of custom classes? I'd like to be able to dynamically access the custom classes (that I've created by the "Export for Actionscript" checkbox in the "Linkage" dialog) without having to hard-code their names into the script.

View 6 RepliesLets suppose, I have a class with so many public properties
class person{
public var address:String;
public var name:String;
public var fathername:String;
//etc etc
}
Now i want to iterate over them in a simple way like
for (var key:string in person){
trace("property is " + key + " and value is " + person[key]);
}
But AS3 doesnt allow this to do with Classes
what would be the better and simple way to iterate over them as i dont want to do so many if(else) on it.
