[Ming-users] Basic question

[Hayden A. <ha...@he...>]

Well, here's a simple question ... hopefully .... although I am well 
frustrated!

I've been writing/learning some actionScript, using the latest release 
of Ming. I have a really simple class definition that I want to keep in 
another file. I've read that I can't use 'import' or 'include', but 
instead that ming will load the correct file when I use the class.

if I have some actionScript:

var test = new testClass;
class testClass {
   public var potato = 5;
}

Wahoo, test.potato == 5

But if I put the class in a file called 'testClass', or 'testClass.as' 
(in the same dir as my perl script) potato is undefined.

I read that I need to use the com.domain.class standard, so I saved my 
class as actionScript/testClass.as and tried "var test = new 
actionScript.testClass;", but no luck. I also tried naming my class 
"actionScript.testClass" too. I've also tried every other combination of 
everything that I can think of ....

The only thing I DO know is that apparently I don't load external 
actionScript files the way that all the actionScript doco says, by using 
?import?

Any help?

Much appreciated

Very embarrassed to be asking something that is so incredibly basic in 
absolutely every other language I deal with!
