Hi Helmut, They don't need to be static at all. In fact if you want to access the parent class you can use the key word super. super.myMethodName() for example. Take a look at the documentation on that and hopefully that gets you pointed in the right direction.
Good Luck. -Chris On 8/29/06, Helmut Granda <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Hi, I have a class with 3 subclasses. in order for me to access a method from any of the subClasses they have to be static (or at least that is the error that the compiler gives me) so i have made my methods static and now when i try to access somethig out of those methods flash tells me that Instance variables cannot be accessed in static functions. Im a bit confused about this. i know that getting an answer from a mailing list might not be sufficient to explain the concept but any attempts are welcome.
