The reason why your error goes away is because the movieclip on the
stage is not extended by 'RectangleExt' and the class is never loaded.
So there is no error.
Some findings:
- the only way to get rid off the error is to completely remove all the
actionscript on the frames.
- Compiling in Mtasc will remove the error
- Running without the actionscript on the frames works fine (and i can
use all the functionality of the rectangle class) So extending intrinsic
classes is possible
- It is not just the Rectangle class, other classes like Point for
example will give the same error
my conclusion: There is a serious bug in the Flash compiler.
but i am open for suggestions.

Change the name of the classs RectangleExtender to something else and the error
will go away.
import flash.geom.Rectangle;
class RectangleExt extends Rectangle {
function RectangleExt() {
super();
trace("RectangleExt");
}
}
As soon as I change RectangleExt to RectangleExtender, I get the same error
(code or no code in timeline).
Must be a naming conflict with some internal/hidden class.

Subject: [Flashcoders] There is no method with the name 'super'
I have 2 classes: 'Tester' wich extends a linked movie on the stage. And
RectangleExtender wich is called in Tester
class Tester extends MovieClip
{
public function Tester()
{
var objRectangleExtender:RectangleExtender = new RectangleExtender();
}
}
and:
import flash.geom.Rectangle;
class RectangleExtender extends Rectangle
{
public function RectangleExtender()
{
super();
}
}
Everything works fine until i put actionscript on a frame. (just a simple
stop(); on the first frame)
then i get this error:
**Error** H:\temp\SuperFoutmelding\RectangleExtender.as: Line 7: There is no
method with the name 'super'.
super();
Total ActionScript Errors: 1 Reported Errors: 1
I really have no idea why flash suddenly throws this error. does anyone has
experience with this kind of error?
I put the source files here: http://stuff.mediamonks.net/quinten/SuperError.rar
just remove the stop() command in the 'mcLinker' movieclip and you will see
that it works fine.
