IDE :: Type Coercion Failed When Accessing Custom Class
Jul 26, 2009
I'm trying to make my own picture browser for my webpage, and have run into a problem I can't solve. My guess is that this is kinda a newbie-problem, but anyway here I go...
I have made a class (as an extention to MovieClip) in a seperate file where I can load a picture and later resize it into a thumbnail. I have no problem showing them, but when I tried to make a MouseEvent for clicking onto the shown thumbnail and then tries to access the instance the event sends me, I get :
TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert flash.display::Loader@22c30791 to ThumbNail.
at PicBrowser_fla::MainTimeline/clickedOnThumbNail()
I don't understand why it complains on 'Loader'!?And what is the best way to access the instance of the 'ThumbNail' in the MouseEvent?
The .as file looks something like this :
Code:
package
{
import flash.display.*;
import flash.events.*;

Running into a problem dispatching a custom event from a parent SWF made in Flex Builder to a child SWF made in Flash CS4 that is loaded at runtime. Namely, whenever the child SWF is dispatched an event, I get a runtime error:
[Code]....
The custom event is defined in a standalone library that both the flex project and the flash project link to staticly. I wanted to go this route so that as I add new types of events, I can rebuild the application and flash swfs and not have to worry about moving .as files around (lets hold off on RSL's until I get this *simple* case worked out).
This error message makes it sound like the application defines a myCustomEvent at compile time, and the flash movie defines its own myCustomEvent when it is published. Then when the application is run, the myCustomEvent dispatched in the application doesn't match the one in the flash swf. Now I thought that application domains were supposed to sort all of this out, where the child uses the parent's definition for any classes that are duplicated. But when I load the child swf and use the current domain in the LoaderContext I still get the same error.

I have a main application(app.swf) which loads a module(profiles.swf) and the profiles module loads another module(member_profile.swf). In member_profile I get member data from the server side where an object of type Member is returned. The object returned contains an array called Jobs holding objects of type MemberJob. In the member_profile module there's a function that takes a parameter of type MemberJob to display the job details. I have a loop that goes through the array returned and calls the function for each array item like this:
for(i = 0; i < member.Jobs.length; i++)
addJob(member.Jobs[i]);
I am getting an error at the addJob line: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert components.classes::MemberJob@19107d81 to components.classes.MemberJob.
And I receive this error always on the second loading of the member_profile module. I mean this module gets loaded when I click a member's name from the profiles module which passes this name as the parameter for the sub module to load the profile of that member including his jobs. So if I chose to see the profile of member "X" the profile is loaded without any errors but if I then click on member "Y" (which causes the sub module to be reloaded with the new parameter) then I get the type coercion error. And if I did the opposite click on "Y" first then "X" the same happens, error in the second load.

I am trying to dispatch a custom event from one flex module to another.The code which dispatch the event is as below Application.application.Destination.child.dispatchEvent(
new AlgoEvent(AlgoEvent.GETFROMPARENT_LOCAL_EVENT));
here AlgoEvent is a custom event.on the other side the module which catches and handles the event has this code:
public function sendParametersToChild(e:AlgoEvent):void
{[ code]...
but when the statement Application.application.Destination.child.dispatchEvent(new AlgoEvent(AlgoEvent.GETFROMPARENT_LOCAL_EVENT)); is executed the debugger give the following run time exception:
TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert resources.events:: AlgoEvent@4182239 to resources.events.AlgoEvent.at flash.events::EventDispatcher/dispatchEventFunction()[code]...........

From the book "AdvancED Actionscript 3.0 Animation" I fixed a problem in the code they give you that is using [Embed....] instead of using library objects with linkage names.

I made a custom event, but was getting this runtime error: TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert flash.events::Event@1498f491 to com.esidegallery.net.BatchLoaderEvent. and eventually found what I thought was the the answer here - [URL] I made the necessary changes, but I'm still getting the same error! It's just a batch loader that dispatches a custom event for every item that loads, with its LoaderInfo object attached. Here's the event code:

I am using ActionScript 3.0.Here I want to setFocus on a DisplayObject(flash.display.DisplayObject).[code]But I am getting: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert mx.managers::FocusManager@3881e41 to mx.managers.FocusManager.This is at line:var focusManager1:FocusManager = dispObject["focusManager"];The same code would work if I use mx.core.UIComponent instead of DisplayObject, I guess.But I am not able to convert DisplayObject to UIComponent (invalid cast).

output:

- In the library, there is 2 different Sprite. These 2 Sprite has a different Class name and used the same Base Class.
- The Base Class is a custom Class
- The 2 Sprite will do exactly the same thing. The only difference is the content image and shape that differs. You can imagin a puzzle. All piece differ, but are use for the same thing.
- In each Sprite, there is another Sprite named Hitzone_inst on the stage MovieClip Name. The item is the shape of the puzzle part, so it is different shape in each.
- The custom Class I can then call the Hitzone_inst as the hitzone for the click
The problem is when I publish, the error appear: TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert Hitzone_inst_1@14b2c161 to Hitzone_inst_2. It's like I can't used the same Base Class for 2 different items with the same items structure and name inside.

I have a project where a 3D VR swf created and compiled in Flash Builder that is being loaded into a Gaia site. The Gaia site is being coded in Flash Builder but compiled in the Flash CS4 IDE. In order to use strong typing I have set up a Flash Builder Library project that holds a few interfaces and VOs to be passed between the Gaia site and the 3D VR Component. That library's swc is referenced in all the projects (Flash CS4 IDE and FB).
If I try to pass a typed object from the site to the 3D VR, I get a coercion failed error. The error only happens when the 3D component compiled in FB expects that custom VO object. If I set the function to expect a generic Object type, it works. I can access the values of my custom VO object manually.
The full error is
"TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert components.vr.vo::VRRoomDataVO@4640fec1 to components.vr.vo.VRRoomDataVO."
Is there a trick to share custom VOs between Flash IDE projects and Flash Builder projects?

i am trying to bring over some classes i made in as2 to as3. i've migrated everything appropriately but keep getting this error:
TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert
ball$ to flash.display.MovieClip. at
test_animateClass_fla::MainTimeline/frame1()
[Code].....
and the .fla loads an external class into it, Animate, which then tries to use addChild() to add a copy of 'ball' to the stage when it's created. a movieClip variable is passed into Animate() from the .fla, which in this case, is the movieClip 'ball'.
why does it have this error converting 'ball' to flash.display.MovieClip?? ball IS a MovieClip already..

I am trying to create an audio that only uses the first entry in an xml file. I have most of the things working but I keep getting an error related to the audio file. TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert "[URL]. at latestMessage_fla::MainTimeline/frame1()
I inserted the url for the file into error message so you can see if there is s problem with that. I was initially trying to use a variable to hold the url for me, because this xml file gets updated every week and I only want to access the most recent entry. This is my first attempt at making an audio player in flash, so I am sure I have made a simple mistake, but for the life of me I cannot figure out what it is.
One last question is in regards to using id3 tags versus xml tags to fill dynamic text fields in the player. Currently I am using the xml file to do this, are there any advantages one way or the other for this. The only reason I ask is that I am hoping to display an "album art" image from the id3 tag in the player. Would it be better to grab all of the information from the mp3 file?

I am fairly new to Flash and have been building a movie. The movie is working properly, but when I test the movie, I receive an error:
Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert flash.display::MovieClip@2c882701 to fl.transitions.Tween.
If I ignore this, everything behaves as it should, and when exported to a swf and played through a browser, it works fine. But, when played in the flash player on it's own, the error pops up. If I dismiss the error, it continues to behave normally.I'm not sure what this error means and if there is a way to get rid of it.The swf on the web can be found here:
