custom classes

DavidElies — Tue, 21 Sep 2010 21:49:59 GMT

Could anyone help me figure out how to use a custom class in my application? I'm sorry if this sounds like a silly question, but I've created the class, and added an import and namespace declaration into my application. FlexBuilder even provides auto-complete and other features for my class, but I get an error message if I try to build. I get the message:

1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant

Thanks!

It sounds like you have done everything correct. A sample would be better to ensure your syntax is right...
Here is a sample if my class was called "PropertySearch"

var search:PropertySearch = new PropertySearch();
var address:String = search.GetAddress(pid);

This sample uses a few custom classes:

Thank you both very much. The example put me on the right track. It was a really silly thing. I put the .as file in the wrong folder (it didn't match the package). Thanks again!
