First you are not importing your mybox class correctly. Second, the external
class should start with a capital ("MyBoxx.as"). Third, your declaration of the
instance is incorrect for how you have it setup.
import myBoxxflash;
var myBoxx:MyBoxx = new MyBoxx();
addChild(myBoxx);
Your external class needs some work as well. I would read up on some tutorials
on how to implement external Classes.

Subject: [Flashcoders] AS3 newbie question: how can I correct this to make
an object appear on the stage?
I don't understand why this doesn't work...
I have a MovieClip, "myClass.fla", with one symbol in the library, "myBox_mc".
Frame 1 of "myClass.fla" has the following actions:
import flash.display.MovieClip;
var myBoxx:MovieClip = MovieClip("myBox_mc");
addChild(myBoxx);
The symbol is exported for ActionScript. Its class remains "myBox_mc". Its base
class has been changed to "myBoxx". The classPath has been properly configured
and ends in the "classes" folder. "myBoxx.as" is in this folder.
The contents of "myBoxx.as" are:
package
{
import flash.display.MovieClip;
public class myBoxx extends MovieClip
{
public function myBoxx(m:MovieClip)
{
trace("09myBoxx parent "+this.parent);
var dmc:MovieClip = m.MovieClip("myBox_mc");
m.addChild(dmc);
}
}
}
When I run this, I get:"Symbol "myBox_mc" error #1023 No default
construtor found in base class myBoxx.
I can't find any other example, or any lesson that tells me what's wrong. Any
help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
- Paul
