Hi, I'm working on my first commercial AS2 project. It's pretty simple, it's an interactive map, but really only a couple of classes at the moment, but I think I could split them down a bit as in my previous AS1 projects, I would have have broken things down into smaller classes, that each listen to each other (and broadcast events etc). Which brings me to my point, I'm a little confused as to how to tie my classes together.
I have one class which is my menu, this is basically an accordian style menu, which uses the FuseKit library for animation. I then have a Map class, which is the graphics of the map, which also uses the FuseKit class to control it's zooming. Both of these classes are driven by the same data set, a single XML file, which I'm parsing into an Object using Sepiroth's xml2object class. Whilst testing I've been importing my classes etc from the same location as my fla, using an .as file, but I now want to move all this logic in an AppController class, which loads handles all the imports, parses the xml, instanciates my objects etc, but I've having some trouble doing so. If I have 3 classes: App.as, Map.as, Menu.as - should I only import App.as in the first frame of my movie, and let the App class import the classes it requires, or should I import all required files manually? Whichever way I do it, how can I place my files in a sub directory in the folder I'm working in (like 'classes')? Both Map.as and Menu.as use the FuseKit classes, do I need to import them for each class, once in the App class or once in the first frame. If this is all a bit hypothetical, I'll post some code ;) Thanks in advance!
