Actually, I'm going to give a quick answer here (but you should join our list):
The calculator sample needs you to have the ActionStepLib swf compiled, as well as calculator.asml in the test subdirectory. So for the pathing to be correct, here's how it needs to look: Calculator.swf <- (This could be named anything) ActionStepLib.swf test/calculator.asml But I imagine you just want to get this thing up and running, am I right? You should use this build script: mtasc -cp "src" -cp "test/src" -swf ActionStep.swf -header 800:600:20 -version 8 -trace org.actionstep.ASDebugger.debugPanelTrace -pack org/actionstep -pack org/actionstep/constants -pack org/actionstep/images org/actionstep/test/ASTestMain -main To change the output of this test, open up org.actionstep.test.ASTestMain (in the test/src classpath), and change line 21 to point to another test class. There's tons of stuff in there, so it should keep you busy for awhile. By the way. We're getting close to a second release, and this one will be launched alongside a new website with some great tutorials on getting started.

I then followed the quickstart guide on OSFlash. I had everything already. except the ruby debugger.. but i'm not worrying about that until I can at least get these examples and something on my own working. The problem i'm having is just trying to figure out what all needs to be compiled an how to do it all with mtasc. I looked at the build.bat and buildExample.bat files. Those are simple mtasc commands and the output swf works. I tried just doing an mtasc command on 'calcSample'. it spits out a swf but the only thing the swf has is a text field that says 'loading...' i'm missing something somewhere.... here is the mtasc command i'm trying for the calc example: mtasc -header 600:500:31 -version 8 -main -strict -trace org.actionstep.ASDebugger.debugPaneITrace -swf calc.swf -cp "src" -cp "test\src" calcSample\Main I can't figure out what i'm missing.. calc.asml? Also, I did manage to build the ActionStep.swf library swf but not sure how to use it in combination with the above. I think i'm supposed to.. sorry about the newbie question, i'm just new to actionstep.... any help or other tutorials would be sweet!!!!.. ..not sure if neccessary.. but I do have ANT. the OSFlash stuff was using ANT.. but everything so far is just basic mtasc commands.. i'm just trying to get something working first before I use ANT. _______________________________________________ [email protected] To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com _______________________________________________ [email protected] To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
