[Laszlo-dev] cannot reference global var from function definition in swf9

[Henry Minsky]

I'm getting this error
[/tmp/lzswf9/lzgen46172/$lzc$class_xmlrpc.as: 18] line unknown: Error:
Access of undefined property LzXMLRPCService.

from  code which refers to the global var LzXMLRPCService


                if ( this.proxy[method] == null ) {
                    this.proxy[method] = function (paramArr, delegate) {
                        var args = arguments.callee.args;
                        LzXMLRPCService.invoke(delegate, paramArr,
                            { service: args.service, methodname: args.method},
                              args.secure, args.secureport);
                    }
                    this.proxy[method].args = {
                        service: this.service,
                        method: method,
                        secure: this.secure,
                        secureport: this.secureport
                    }
                }

The var is declared at the top level as

var LzXMLRPCService:LzXMLRPC = new LzXMLRPC();

and it exists and regular references to it compile in the code, but
for some reason, inside of the function ()  expression, it
says it is undefined.

I can't figure out if I'm doing something wrong, or if this is a
compiler bug (in the flex compiler?)

Maybe I ought to rewrite this code to operate in a different manner, I
think it is a little
dicey to try to be adding properties to a function object in swf9
anyway, I recall that
failed when trying to add properties to a method.
