Hello, I have some classes with a lot of code that I may or may not need depending on the situation. These classes all extend a superclass that I refer to in my main application. My ideal would be to define subclasses only in external swfs, load the swfs and then instantiate the classes via a string passed to getDefinitionByName so that the subclasses are not included in the main application.
So the model is: Main.swf / Main.as contains SupClass.as but does not have references to Subclass1 or Subclass2 Subclass1.swf / Subclass1.as Subclass2.swf / Subclass2.as Main.as decides it wants Subclass1, loads Subclass1.swf, load inits and completes, Main.as tries to instantiate Of course, when I try this, I get the typical ReferenceError: Error #1065: Variable Subclass1 is not defined. Is there any way that anyone knows of to instantiate a class this way? I would love to keep it out of the Main.swf. Here seems to be a well phrased argument that seems to insist that the class always be included in the swf that is trying to instantiate (and thus all the code will be duplicated). http://nwebb.co.uk/blog/?p=186 Thanks dudes and dudettes, -jonathan -- -jonathan howe _______________________________________________ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
