Error 1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: Component Event.

Hi Everyone..
I am getting an Error 1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: Component Event.
The ComponentEvent class has been imported,and also the event handling code is there. I am not sure what else is wrong, hope somebody can advise me. Thanks. The code is below, the point where the error occurs as indicated by the compiler has been highlighted.

Hi Guys...
I have found out what is wrong. I was importing the wrong package the correct one should have been:
import fl.events.ComponentEvent;
instead of
import flash.events.ComponentEvent;
I hope this is helpful for anyone caught in a simillar situation as me...Thanks..

Trouble adding a web url link to an existing file: 1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant:

Hi There,
We're trying to add a simple link to an existing Flash file. There looks to be at least 7 separate .as files and a separate swf that loads the main swf which all seems overly complex for what is essentially a page with six buttons on it.
However, we need to add a URL to some of the text. So we converted the text to a button, added an instance name of <ssbpurchasetickets_btn> then added the following Actionscript into the actions layer on the frame the text/button appears:
ssbpurchasetickets_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, ssbButtonPurchase);
function ssbButtonPurchase(event:MouseEvent):void
navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://www.url.com/tickets.html"));
When we publish the file we get the following error which seems to cascade into a whole bunch more errors:
Description: 1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: MouseEvent.
Source: function ssbButtonPurchase(event:MouseEvent):void
We added "ssb" onto the button and functions to ensure there were no conflicts but the same thing occurred. If we copy the button into a new file everything works so it must be conflicting with something in the main files.
Any help would be MUCH appreciated!!!!
Cheers

Thanks for the reply Ned,
The file is set to use AS3 and I'm pretty sure the original should be set to AS3 as the .as files look like AS3 syntax to me - here's a sample:
protected function handleWwrdButtonClick(e:ButtonEvent):void {
Browser.open(globalVar.xml.wwrd.item[0].@url, globalVar.xml.wwrd.item[0].@target);
OmnitureTracker.trackFeaturedContentClick('http://www.url.com/movies/international', 'wwrd_button');
timer.stop();
timer.removeEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, onTimer);
I'm wondering if all the Actionscript has be placed into one of the .as files as there isn't any Actionscript in the Flash project - a part from the odd stop()
Really stuck on this one (I'm not an expert at all) so any help in deciphering the project would be much appreciated.
Cheers

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

I am more than a little frustrated. I'm using Flash Professional CS5.5, attempting to publish ActionScript 3.0 for FlashPlayer 10.2
My code begins with:
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.events.KeyboardEvent;
import flash.utils.Timer;
import flash.events.TimerEvent;
Then much later I have:
teamFourCar_mc.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, trackPosition);
function trackPosition (event:Event)
and I keep getting a compiler error:
Scene 1, Layer 'actions', Frame 1, Line 434
1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: Event.
I have imported the class "Events". I have successfully used the same construction in other scripts... in fact, virtually the same construction is included in Code Snippets as Fade In and Fade Out. Adding ":void" after (event:Event) makes no difference. I have Googled - to no avail - and spent the better part of a day reading through the on-line help files, but the solution is still eluding me.
It's probably so simple I'm going to smack myself in the forehead and mutter "Duh!" when I find a solution...
If you can do anything to hasten that event (no pun intended) I (with the possible exception of my forehead) will be very grateful.
TIA
Terry

Sinious:
The entire code of the main movie clip is at http://pastebin.com/JYfLUhh1
A sample of one of the four "problem" movie clips is at http://pastebin.com/gQGDyngx
There is nothing wrong with the "problem" clip. The problems are in the main movie clip:
Scene 1, Layer 'actions', Frame 1, Line 427
1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: Event.
Scene 1, Layer 'actions', Frame 1, Line 612
1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: Event.
Scene 1, Layer 'actions', Frame 1, Line 1819
1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: Event.
There are the only three occurrences of a function with (event:Event). Two are ENTER_FRAME (427 & 1819) The other is COMPLETE from Loader.info
Auto format reported a syntax error "near 'if(movingCar.currentFrame == (dieRoll * 24) + movingCarPosition)' " but I can't detect what, if anything, is wrong with it.
I'm not an experienced developer... in fact, the last programming I did before taking up Flash three months ago was with QuickBasic under DOS 6.2... therefore, please try not to roll your eyes too much when you see how inelegant the code is.
I have a working version, but it's over 7,000 lines and a memory hog. I'm trying to make it more elegant and more efficient. BTW, the three (event:Event) functions are in the working version in more or less the same places, with the same calling code.
I hope you can figure it out.
Thank you in advance

Now that the error is solved, when I test nothing happens. I just get a blank screen.
What is supposed to happen? When the program opens a splash screen should be added for 3 seconds and then fade out. Then some main screen movie clips should be added to the stage.

Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant?

Hi guys,
I'm going nuts. I've got this movieclip that I made into a
button with ActionScript. When clicked, it
should go to a frame in my main timeline labeled "beansbus",
but whenever I try to test the movie out, Flash
gives me this error:
1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant:
bus.
I've looked around on the internet and I've been told that
this error can
crop up if the instance name is the same as a library object.
That WAS the
problem, but I renamed the library object to Cutebus, so that
should have fixed it, I hope. There was another fix that involved
something called TextFields in my movieclip, but I don't have
those...
My code looks like this, which was copied and pasted from an
in-class tutorial that DOES work, with no problems.
Thanks in advance for any light you can shed on this.

actually the error:
quote:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of
a null object reference. at
beans_fla::MainTimeline/frame1()[beans_fla.MainTimeline::frame1:3]
may not obviously give the line number at first
glance, but it does! 'frame 1:3' refers to frame 1, line 3. which
if your code post was accurate to line numbers, refers to:
quote:
bus.stop();
so i'd suggest looking at your bus clip and
ensuring that you have correctly defined its instance name. Also,
make sure you have this correctly defined in each keyframe that the
clip appears.

ActionScript 3 Error: 1046: Type was not found or....

Hi,
I am completely new to Flas and AS3. I am trying to create an opacity slider using the slider component. I foudn a similar tutorial and tried to alter it to fit my opacity needs. In line 8 (function opacityChange (event:SliderEvent):void{) I get the error message 1046. When I test it in Flash the slider flickers on and off very rapidly too. Though I have searched, I am clueless as to what the problem is.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks!!
importfl.events.SliderEvent;
percent_txt.text = "Opacity %:0";
slider.value = 0;
slider.addEventListener(SliderEvent.CHANGE,opacityChange);
function opacityChange (event:SliderEvent):void{
          percent_txt.text = "Opacity %: " + event.target.value;
          logo.alpha = event.target.value;

I am trying to duplicate the slider event for additional sliders and run into a 5000: The class ... must subclass 'flash.display.MovieClip'
Any advice? (I know I need to take a class)
And thanks again.
import fl.events.SliderEvent;
skinPercent_txt.text = "Opacity %:100";
skinSlider.value = 1;
skinSlider.addEventListener(SliderEvent.CHANGE,opacityChange);

1046: Type not a compile-time constant: TimerEvent.

I have a simple space ship in an fla

related to the line "public function

instead of using
import flash.events.TimerEvent.*;
use
import flash.events.TimerEvent;
and you probably need
import flash.utils.Timer;

1046: not a compile-time constant: TimerEvent.

I know this is simple but I just cannot see what I am doing
wrong
it is in reference to "public function
moveClip(event:TimerEvent):void {"
any help is appreciated .
my code is attached
thank you

I am old .. and I guess I just see what I want to see ...ty
for your help
I moved it to AS3 ...
I added the timer change found a few more errors and
then I got same error ...

"1046: Type was not found" for a custom class calling a custom class

This should be easy... but I've spent two days on nothing but this error.... I am absolutely at my wit's end.
Basically, I've got a "character" container linked to a MovieClip in the library that is supposed to act as a container for various body parts; head, shirt, pants, etc. For simplicity, I've just got Character class and Head class, both in a "char" package, both classes are named the same as their respective files (Character.as and Head.as, both in an actual file called "char"). Character class is supposed to create an instance of Head, but I always get this 1046 error. The problem is that I've got other body parts with nearly identical classes that ARENT throwing a 1046 error and are working just fine. I went and made a new project to see if I was still having the problem with just character calling 1 simple body part. I do.
In the symbol properties, it's Exported for Actionscript & Export in Frame 1... the class is "char.Head" and "char.Character" respectively. I have tried everything I can find or think of, I've done dozens of Google searches and sifted through dozens of forums. I can't find anything and I've been working on this problem for 24 straight working hours now. I'm completely exasperated......
package char {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.display.Stage;
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.geom.ColorTransform;
import fl.motion.Color;
import char.Head;
public class Character extends MovieClip {
// 1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: Head
private var _head:Head;
// reference to get the stage later
private var stageRef:Stage;
public function Character(stageRef:Stage=null) {
trace("NEW CHARACTER");
//1180 Call to a possibly undefined method Head;
_head=new Head();
And here's the contents of Head.as
package char {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.display.Stage;
import flash.geom.ColorTransform;
public class Head extends MovieClip {
private var skin_type:uint;
public function Head() {
trace ("NEW HEAD");
Now if I declare the head variable and create a new instance of it in my document class, no problem whatsoever. If I do it in my Character class, it just doesn't stop giving me this error!!! Somebody please help me.
1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: Head
1180 Call to a possibly undefined method Head;

There is a blank movieclip named Character in the library, yup.
Also in my main handler for my document class calls "mainCharacter = new Character(); "
Here's a chunk of the code from the document class. For the record, it calls "head" as just a test and that works fine. Just doesn't work in "Character"
import char.Character;
import char.Head;
public class MainHandler extends MovieClip {
private static var _instance:MainHandler;
public static function get instance():MainHandler { return _instance; }
public var mainCharacter:Character;
public var head_:Head;
public function MainHandler() {
_instance = this;
mainCharacter = new Character();
head_=new Head();

Error: "Transaction type could not be determined" during PO Creation fromSC

Hi all,
I'm working on SRM 5.5 with ECS.
During the creation of a PO I want to add a SC as an item of PO.
But when I chose the SC and click on the button Add to PO I recive the error:
Transaction type could not be determined
In the organizational unit I set the attribute BSA and DP_PROCT_TY.
there are other steps I have to do to join the transaction type of SC and PO?
rgs
enzo

Hi Enzo,
First check if the attribute BSA and DP_PROC_TY have the same value.
Then in the attribute value for BSA, change the source system for the document type to your SRM system.
Create a new PO and a shopping cart.
Try changing the PO by adding the shopping cart
Hopefully your problem may get resolved.
Thanks

There is a problem in batch determination.
The batch you assigned to the material does not have a class or if it has a class, that class does not exist.
Display the batch from the delivery item using MSC3N and go into the Classification tab. You should have a class of class type 22. See if that class exists in CL03 and its status in basic data tab. Work on these lines and revert.
Hope this helps.

FBV1 error - Transaction Type 030 not possible

Hi SAP experts,
I am currently facing an issue while in FBV1 (via batch input)
It displays error message Transaction Type 030 not possible (posting to affiliated company), however, the asset group that it belongs to can only be Type 030 (Acquisition in group area only).
How can this be fixed?
Is there another TType that is similar to 030 ?
Any help is welcome

Roger

Hi,
check SAPNET note 127650.
