To clarify .. if I have an OpenLaszlo canvas, I cannot import into canvas an external
swf (as an asset) which has previously been compiled in OpenLaszlo .. because of
duplication of core classes.
I can, however, import a Macromedia (or MTASC) compiled swf into OpenLaszlo
canvas.
My attempt is to use SWFmill swf as the container for different assets.

Yes .. I have that example working in Eclipse.

Yes.

I have applied swf2xml and this creates a file 4,658,229 bytes in size (from an swf file
size 70,309 bytes).
On compiling back again .. xml2swf it returns to the original size 70,309 bytes.
And this also fails to compile correctly.
...
Here is the application class below (simpleLoader) I am using to try to load this file ..
lzxassets.swf .. into stage.
Can you see anything wrong with this script?
lzxassets.swf is the file created by SWFmill using "swfmill simple" command.
lzxassets.swf is placed in root of project in Eclipse.
Path to swf: C:\eclipse\workspace\swfmill_importlzx\deploy\lzxtest.swf
Root (main) class: C:\eclipse\workspace\swfmill_importlzx\src\SimpleLoader.as
Additionals: -header 640:480:20
-version 8
________________________________________
class SimpleLoader {
function SimpleLoader(scope:MovieClip) {
scope.loadMovie("lzxassets.swf");
}
//Main Entry Point
static function main() {
var simpleLoader:SimpleLoader = new SimpleLoader(_root);
}
}
________________________________________
But although Eclipse compilation report says "....... compilation complete!" .. the
compiled lzxtest.swf is blank when viewed .. and is only 297 bytes in size. Clearly
nothing in it.
Puzzling.
Thanks
