Re: [flexcoders] Yahoo Maps & Flex 2

[JesterXL]

Flex 1.5 was used to create the Yahoo Maps currently on Yahoo's dev site.  As such, it won't compile in Flex 2.  You can load it into a Loader maybe, but then you could only control it via LocalConnection, and they don't have a LocalConnection API in it.   Your best bet is to create one via Flash; load the SWC in there, put some proxy functions on _root, like:   function __resolve(name) {     return yahoo_mc[name]; }   // localconnection, etc.   ANd then publish the SWF, and load in Flex 2, and then extned LocalConnection implementing the API that you put in the Flash SWF.   ----- Original Message ----- From: Jonathan Miranda To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Sent: Monday, February 06, 2006 3:30 PM Subject: [flexcoders] Yahoo Maps & Flex 2 Anyone got a no-brainer solution to this or know somewhere where I can find this information? I’m trying something just real basic with the SWC in the root of the project and I’m getting “YahooMap is not a compile-time constant” or something close to that.
