Can you post link-reports for the main app and the module? The implication is that the factory.create() didn’t work because the module’s class definition is not in the module swf.

The ModuleEvent.READY listener is executing, the path is correct. >> var test:ITest ITest(this._moduleLoader.child); This was a typo. this._moduleLoader.child is still null here though. I get the same problem using mx and spark ModuleLoader. So unless someone can spot the problem, I'm going to use SWFLoader... ________________________________ To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com From: timh...@aol.com Date: Thu, 3 Nov 2011 18:35:10 +0000 Subject: [flexcoders] Re: ModuleLoader.child is null Perhaps you're getting an error on load; probably due to the path. Try adding an event listener for ModuleEvent.ERROR. Also, this line is missing an equal sign: var test:ITest ITest(this._moduleLoader.child); Should be: var test:ITest = ITest(this._moduleLoader.child); -TH --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com <mailto:flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com> , "method_air" <loudjazz@...> wrote: > > Can anyone explain why ModuleLoader.child is null in the module event 'ready' > event listener: > > this._moduleLoader = new ModuleLoader(); > this._moduleLoader.url = "ImageComparisonModule.swf"; // > this._moduleLoader.addEventListener(ModuleEvent.READY, onReady); > > private function onReady(e:ModuleEvent):void > { > var test:ITest ITest(this._moduleLoader.child); // null > } > > Module code: > > <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> > <s:Module xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"; > xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark" > xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx" > implements="com.storefront.interfaces.controller.ITest" > > > <fx:Declarations> > <!-- Place non-visual elements (e.g., services, value objects) here --> > </fx:Declarations> > > <s:VGroup width="100%" /> > </s:Module> > > Cheers, > > Philip > -- Alex Harui Flex SDK Team Adobe System, Inc. http://blogs.adobe.com/aharui
