RE: [flexcoders] Very simple module crash: Instantiation attempted on a non-constructor

If other modules are using Sliders, then you probably have the shared
code problem described on my blog (blogs.adobe.com/aharui)

Subject: [flexcoders] Very simple module crash: Instantiation attempted
on a non-constructor

 

I am trying to put some components in a module and one of them which
uses an HSlider is causing a crash. The module loads fine but when I
try to add the component with addChild it crashes with:
TypeError: Error #1007: Instantiation attempted on a non-constructor.

Here is the main application:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml
<http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml> "
layout="vertical"
creationComplete="onCreationComplete()">
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
import mx.modules.IModuleInfo;
import mx.modules.ModuleManager;

private var moduleRef:IModuleInfo;
private var module:MyModule;

private function onCreationComplete():void
{
moduleRef = ModuleManager.getModule("MyModule.swf");
moduleRef.addEventListener("ready", onModuleLoaded);
moduleRef.load();
}

private function onModuleLoaded(event:Event):void
{
module = moduleRef.factory.create() as MyModule;
myPanel.addChild(module.slider);
}
]]>
</mx:Script>

<mx:Panel id="myPanel"
title="Module Test Application" 
width="400" height="400">
<mx:Label text="Hello World"/>
</mx:Panel>

</mx:Application>

Here is the Module:
package
{
import mx.modules.ModuleBase;
import mx.controls.sliderClasses.Slider;

public class MyModule extends ModuleBase
{
public var slider:Slider;

public function MyModule()
{
slider = new Slider();
}
}
}
