Importing 1

[mike314]

Got a quick one here, can't seem to find it by searching but how can I import an actionscripts file (AS 2.0, Flash MX2004), to use its class in an fla?

I'm doing this,
#include "Base64-20.as"

but getting these errors

**Error** C:\Documents and Settings\mike\Desktop\Base64-20.as: Line 24: Classes may only be defined in external ActionScript 2.0 class scripts.
class Base64

**Error** C:\Documents and Settings\mike\Desktop\Base64-20.as: Line 25: The class 'Base64' needs to be defined in a file whose relative path is 'Base64.as'.
extends Object


am I missing something?

thanks

You are confusing AS1 "#include" and AS2 "import" - they are quite different things.

I see, I changed it to use
import "Base64-20.as"

but it gave me this error
frame=1:Line 1: Identifier expected
import "Base64-20.as

import Base64-20;

However, if your Class file is in the same directory as your FLA you don't need to do anything as Flash will find your AS file.
