ActionScript 3.0 :: Importing Classes From Previous Folder?
Jul 28, 2010
Right now in my 3D work folder I have a long list of demos and benchmarks all importing classes from my rumblesushi3D folder (package rumblesushi3D), which contains my entire 3D engine.
It's too long and cluttered, and now that I'm about to start work on my first game, I'd like to put all my publishable work into folders - such as demos, benchmarks, then a folder per game.
The files in these new folders now need to import classes from the same 3D engine that's now in the previous directory (rumblesushi3D).
The only alternative is to place a copy of my 3D engine folder in each folder, which I obviously don't want to do.
Say for example, you have a FLASH_WORK folder, in this folder there is a com folder with all the classes you use. All the document classes of your work are in FLASH_WORK, so the same folder depth as com obviously, and are not assigned a specific package.
If you put all these document classes into a folder called archive (created in FLASH_WORK) for example, is there any way to import the classes from the same com folder, now at a previous depth, without renaming ALL the classes in com to [URL]etc etc ?

I currently use actionscript 2 and the package Tweener to perform many of my animations etc. Essentially its a class for tweening items with code.
So it all works fine when my folder structure is like this:
- Myflash.fla
- Myswf.swf
- Folder called caurina which holds all of the Tweener classes.
And in my fla file I import the Tweener classes by calling the following lines of actionscript 2:
import caurina.transitions.*;
import caurina.transitions.properties.ColorShortcuts;
import caurina.transitions.properties.DisplayShortcuts;
import caurina.transitions.properties.FilterShortcuts;
[Code]....

I'm trying to import a class from a class that is located in another folder. How do you move up a directory? Using./ or ../ doesn't seem to work. Essentially I want to access a TweenLite Class but not from the document class. My class is at com/myName and the class I want to access is at com/TweenLite. import ../TweenLite doesn't work... I realize I could just copy and paste the entire Tweenlite folder again, but there's got to be a less duplicative way of doing this..

I made this flash CS3 project using Actionscript 2.0 I want to import some images in a folder to stage. The images are named 1.jpg, 2.jpg, 3.jpg etc.. All these images are 600px in width. I used a movieclip as a container for these images.
[Code]....
When i run this code, only the last image is loaded. since i used Actionscript Code:
i<3 in the for loop, only the 3rd image is loaded. its in the right place. (_x = 1800). The first and second images are not loaded...

I'm having some problems with importing classes in AS3. I'm kinda new to flash and programming in general. I searched on these forums and couldn't find anything in regards to importing an external class. I'm trying to import the tweener class and I used the code: import caurina.transitions.Tweener; on the first frame of the symbol I'm trying to load the class in. But I get a syntax error and an error that says "statement must appear within on/onclipevent handler".

Very basic question here: Are there any disadvantages to using the ".*" qualifier when stating our imports into ActionScript files.
In other words, is this only a compile-time directive or does this actually affect the footprint and performance of our final builds?

What is the difference between importing a class and extending a class, I know that when you extend you add all the properties/methods of that class to your own class, but I am still un sure of what this actually does for you and your program, I am pretty confused on the topic and I couldnt find the difference between the two on the internet, also how do you know which one of the two you need to do?

I'm having a problem with my preloader and importing Fuse classes.
[Code]...
When I simulate download, the State is Frame 0 and it doesn't trace(amount) or scale the bar_mc until it is 100% loaded. If I remove the Fuse import, it works as it should. What is the best way to fix this problem? Is there a way to fix it? I'm continuing to search for a solution, but thought I'd ask the knowledgeable folks here first.

I'm working through a tutorial to create an mp3 player in actionscript. When I delete my first 4 lines of code, the .swf still works great! I thought you needed to declare what classes you're importing for every object you create later on.
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.media.Sound;
import flash.net.URLRequest;
import flash.media.SoundChannel;

Flash, for whatever reason has completely stopped allowing my external files to communicate with one another. In order to confirm this I ran a few tests. I have two very simple actionscript files Main.as and TestDialog.as.
Main.as is as follows
Code:
package
{
import flash.display.MovieClip;[code]....
Every time i run my program it throws error 1180 method test possibly undefined.If i try and run the constructor function TestDialog() i get the incorrect number of arguments error.

i'm creating an application using AS3.0 and class files. in this application i have a MovieClip in the library i'm using that contains several symbols and configurable textfields and have already defined the functionality for these symbols. my question is, if i'm creating an application and through actionscript and i'm spawning instances of a symbol, do i have to define the functionality and initialize this symbol in the main application class?
specifics: i'm creating a panorama app with markers that are papervision3d planes. they use a movieClip texture that i've created and i want to configure textfields and display pictures that describe the info in the marker. i created a panoApp.as class file that configures the panorama. but i also have a marker.as class that defines the symbol's behavior. this movieclip has symbols in it it's stage that i've defined (ie: name_textfield, description_textfield, etc..) when i compile the project, the compiler errors saying that the variables/identified internal symbols are missing.

A lot of people have .com websites & put all their classes & packages inside a com folder & then their website name to avoid any possible naming conflicts when using other peoples classes - all very sensible. I have a .co.uk website however - is there an equivelant naming standard?

I'm currently working on a Flash platform game and I'm trying to make each level have its own class that defines a hitTest function (Each class is linked to the MovieClip of the level), which would allow the character to walk on the level. Whenever I try to import the subclass into the Document class, errors start popping up and it is driving me crazy (Error 1120: Access of undefined property)
Document Class (Class_Main.as):

I just started using flashdevelop and I have some problems with importing all classes.
1. I used export all classes to SWC file and I added it to the library in FD. How can I import instances placed on the stage without creating AS linkages? I don't want to export these instances for AS, because some of them are textfields. By making linkages I'm forced to transform them to Sprite or MovieClip (am I right?) and my methods connected to these object don't work anymore.
2. When I export my project in FD, I get error 1065: variable Main is not defined. Main is my document class. I made this class my entry in FD.

I've worked wioth sub classes so I know how they work but I always work with everything all in one folder which can get messsy when there are a lot of classes to work through. So i started to make folders inside of my main folder but it's not working. Thought it may be to do with package names but as far as i know, for the whole "classes in separate folders" things that's how they are supposed to be.

I have various movies clip within a movie and my back (mc = arr2_mc) and next (mc = arr1_mc) buttons are on the main scene.This is on my main scene on a first frame
ActionScript Code:
movieclip.prototype.playBackwards = function(arg){
if(arguments.length>0) {[code]....
when it goes back, it goes back frame by frame without stopping but I want it to go only to previous Scene. instead of going to previous frame.Do i have to create a unique button? which i did but i didn't work?

i am trying to create a flash movie for my browser page. i am able to import and export the movie just fine, the problem comes after i export the movie. As long as i leave the flash file in the folder it was created in things work great. If i try to move the folder or rename the folder it stops working. It acts like it cant find the flv file i created the flash with. if i rename or move the folder back where it was created things work fine.
