[flexcoders] newbie question - call to actionscript class

[annelie2008]

Hello,

I'm brand new to Flex so I'm sure this is a very stupid question, but 
hopefully someone will be able to help.

My ultimate goal is to take an xaml file with a musical score and 
convert it to flex, but to start with I've hardcoded a score (or 
rather some score elements) in an actionscript class and I'm trying 
to call it from my main application file. When I debug I can see that 
it does get called, however nothing gets drawn on screen. I first did 
the hardcoded score in a project on its own, so I know that the score 
should be able to be displayed.

Here's the code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"; 
layout="absolute" initialize="initializeHandler()">
        
        <mx:Script>
                <![CDATA[
                        
                        import test.DrawNotes;
                        
                        public var myXmlList:XMLList;
                        
                        private function initializeHandler():void
                        {
                                myXmlList = scoreXml.children();
                                
                                // loop through the xml here and call 
the relevant functions in DrawNotes
                                
                                var notes:DrawNotes = new DrawNotes();
                        }

                ]]>
        </mx:Script>
        
        <mx:XML id="scoreXml" source="scoreCanvas.xml" />
        
</mx:Application>


Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

Many thanks,

Annelie
