does it compile if you just have a simple hello world example, with
an empty constructor?

Hey list,
I'm trying to compile AS3 on my mac, have tried every which method
and keep on running into the same issue. Here's the deal:
Downloaded latest version of Flex SDK from labs.adobe.com
Moved SDK to user directory, tried comiling from command line.
Could compile MXML no problems, but when I tried to compile AS3
file, got the following errors:
/Users/dpeek/test.as(9): col: 21 Error: Call to a possibly
undefined method TextField.
helloField = new TextField();
^
/Users/dpeek/test.as(2): col: 23 Error: Definition
flash.display:TextField could not be found.
import flash.display.TextField;
It seemed like the compiler wasn't loading the AS3 stub files,
which as far as I can tell are supposed to be in an swc somewhere.
I'd followed various walkthroughs to the letter always with the
same result: MXML - no problem, AS3 - can't find intrinsic classes.
Installed xcode today so I could try a different approach, followed
Josh Buhlers excellent walkthrough, only to run into the same
problem. I've done a pretty thorough search for that error code to
no avail. So, if anyone has any ideas, I'd be eternally greatful :)
oh, here's the AS I'm trying to compile, as found in gskinners
flcompile files:
package {
import flash.display.TextField;
import flash.display.Sprite;
public class test extends Sprite {
private var helloField:TextField;
public function test() {
helloField = new TextField();
helloField.text = "Hello World!";
addChild(helloField);
}
}
}
Thanks in advance,
David
