Hi all,

I am really needing some help with packages. It’s just driving me nuts. I searched everywhere but i simple just get the same error message over and over: 1180 - call to a possibly undefined object.

Here’s the code (I just extracted the most important things of the code…):

# ==================== ===== file path: teste1.fla

import scripts.objetos;

var obj\_array:Array = new Array();

…

var obj:Sprite=new Sprite();  
obj.name=‘testname’;  
obj.z=0;  
obj\_array.push(new criaObjeto(obj.name, obj.z));

# ========================== ===== file path: scripts/objetos.as

package {

```
public class criaObjeto{

    private var name:String;
    private var sortz:Number;

public function criaObjeto(nome:String, sortz:Number) {
    this.nome = nome;
    this.sortz = sortz;
}

public function getZ():Number {
    return sortz;
}

public function toString():String {
    return " " + name + ":" + sortz;
}

```

}  
}

* * *

I am using this code to sstore the z position and the child name of each obj.

Thanks for any help!
