Re: [Flashcoders] Load/export Symbol in ActionScript
I couldn't remember - but having had a trawl it seems it was Peter Hall (see http://www.peterjoel.com/blog) - but I've been unable to find the original article. Basically as each class is loaded it gets assigned a symbol name __Packages.class path.

Re: [Flashcoders] Load/export Symbol in ActionScript
Creating a fake named linkage'd run-time symbol is done another way. But I don't remember it by hearth. Maybe someone else can feed on this one. Yes. Thanks. You identify my problem. This is the point that I want to know. Anyone any ideas? :-) Juguang ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
Re: [Flashcoders] Load/export Symbol in ActionScript
Hi Juguang,
I posted the following about a week ago - I think it's what you're after:
--
Can't remember where I got this solution - definitely not mine - but
here's how to create a MovieClip-derived class that doesn't need an
associated library symbol:
--
class net.something.MyButton extends MovieClip
{
static var symbolName:String = __Packages.net.something.MyButton ;
static var symbolOwner:Function = MyButton;
public function MyButton()
{
}
static var symbolLinked=Object.registerClass(symbolName, symbolOwner);
}
--
To create it, use attachMovie:
import net.something.MyButton;
var button:MyButton=MyButton(myTimeline.attachMovie(MyButton.symbolName,
someRandomButton,
myTimeline.getNextHighestDepth()));
Where myTimeline is whatever parent movie clip you're trying to attach to.
HTH,
Ian
(I think I'll go away and put this in the FAQ...)

Re: [Flashcoders] Load/export Symbol in ActionScript
Hi Ian, thanks! But I have read such code many times and in many forum.
However, my this piece of stupid code just does now work for me. (But it
runs well, if I manually add a symbol 'RMC', in Flash)
Can someone test on your side and tell me if it is working in your
environment? Big thanks!! - Juguang
// RMC.as
class RMC extends MovieClip {
public function RMC(){}
public function init(w, h){
this.lineStyle(2, 0xff, 100);
this.moveTo(0, 0);
this.lineTo(100, 100);
}
public static var symbolName:String=RMC;
public static var symbolOwner:Function=RMC;
public static var symbolLinked=Object.registerClass(symbolName,
symbolOwner);
}
// entry
import RMC;
var mc = _root.attachMovie(RMC.symbolName, myname,
_root.getNextHighestDepth());
trace(mc);
var rmc=RMC(mc);
rmc.init(100, 100);
/// the end

RE: [Flashcoders] Load/export Symbol in ActionScript
Normally, you would keep the RMCSymbol in your library with the linkage and class association and not use Object.registerClass. If you want to associated your symbol dynamically to a class at run-time you can use Objec.registerClass(RMCSymbol, RMC); for example. This function can only set your class association It doesn't create a fake symbol in your run-time library for Flash to instantiate when you do attachMovie(RMCSymbol, ...). Creating a fake named linkage'd run-time symbol is done another way. But I don't remember it by hearth. Maybe someone else can feed on this one. Basically, Object.registerClass associates a class (RMC) to a linkage'd symbol (RMCSymbol) that must exist. Hope that helps!

In the first frame of new flash document, I have the code like this. trace(hello); var rmc = _root.attachMovie(RMCSymbol, rmc_1, 2); trace(rmc); RMC(rmc).init(100, 200); Where RMC is a subclass of MovieClip. I created an empty RMCSymbol symbol make the linkage between RMCSymbol and RMC class in Symbol Properties dialog, and the swf works. Now, I delete RMCSymbol and try to add the registration code like var tmp:RMC; Object.registerClass(RMCSymbol, RMC); before the previous code. It does not work as what I had previously and trace(rmc) prints undefined. Did I miss something here? Many thanks!
