Hi,
second post I do about issues I am facing by migrating my Flash 8 as2 10k lines to flash9 as3 :crazy:
To simplify it, let say I have 2 files, Manager.fla and Managed.fla, Manager.fla is using Manager.as, a class that is making some stuff, building an interface with linked MCs instantiated from the library, for example I have McManagerGUI.
Managed.fla is using Managed.as for the same purpose.
I can compile these two files without any problems…
Now, things happening in the Managed class could have an impact on my Manager class, so I want to link them… there comes the issue, let imagine I create such a method in my Managed class to have a ref on the Manager:
public function setManager(m:Manager){
this.m=m;
}
That is producing a compiling error in Manager.fla, because the compiler is trying to compile my Managed class, which is normal, and also the Manager class, cause there is a reference to an object of its type in Managed class. The error is produced because Managed.fla doesn’t have a McManagerGUI linked mc in its library (it is in the Manager.fla library)… and the Manager is instantiating it to build the Manager interface…
So… I don’t know if my description is clear… I didn’t had such problems with the attachMovie from as2…
any idea ? help ? tips ? infos ? Should I force all my instantiation to be dynamic (I found a nice piece of code to do that…) to avoid the compilation error ?
