Importing class packages

i am currently developing a flash movie with no graphics at
the moment. It is being done with a lot of classes and packages,
many of the AS classes import the same packages as well. I have
many linked movie clips to those classes.
The problem is that when i compile it takes quite a long
time. I want to know if there is a way to have a single file for
all my classes (like an include file) as opposed to having a dozen
import lines of code in each AS script.

I'm a newbie too, but I thought I would give you this URL. It was extremely helpful when I began using packages. I hope it helps.

  • Importing classes, package, Jamlab, JAMA

    Hello:
    I am using, inside a JSP, a modified version of this code --> http://www.developer.com/java/other/article.php/806711, which uses a package named JAMA and Jamlab(to work with matrix) --> http://www.developer.com/java/other/article.php/762441
    It is already recognizing the JAMA package (basic linear algebra package), after I added the Jama.jar file path to the CLASSPATH.
    I was trying to import the Jamlab classes and I thought that I could do the same: add to the CLASSPATH the Jamlab.jar path.
    The download did not come with a .JAR file, I did it using the JAR command: adding the classes to it. I already checked that the classes are actually inside the .JAR, not in a sub-folder.
    The compiler is not recognizing a method which is found inside the Jamlab package:
    //Create matrix of the coefficients.
        polyCoeffMatrix = new Matrix(JElmat.convertTo2D(polynomialCoefficients));
    "JElmat cannot be resolved" is the error message.
    The import directive of my JSP page:
    <%@page import="java.io.*,java.lang.*, java.util.*, java.awt.*, java.awt.image.*, Jama.*, Jama.util.*, jamlab.*, jamlab.JElmat.*"%>Any help is extremely appreciated!

    Yes they are in the same folder with 'package graphs;' in the 1st line,

  • Importing classes/packages

    Does importing an entire package cause the classloader to load ALL the classes in that package into memory or are they loaded only on demand?
    Suppose package called MyPackage.
    import MyPackage.* - Does this cause all the classes to be loaded into memory ?

    Here's some more info on the 'import' statement:

  • Not allowed to import classes without package names?

    Hi,
    I have a few questions on Packages and importing?
    1. Is the following true that it is illegal to import classes in the same package as the current class, will this cause a comilation error? If this is the case where in the Java Language specification is this actually written as I could not find it?
    2. This has probably been answered by question 1 but if I have 2 classes in the same package and if I import 1 of the classes into the other class, is it illegal to import it by just using the class name and not the package name as well, ie
    if the package name is ie.tcd
    and the 2 class names are exp1.class and exp2.class, can I do this in class 2
    package ie.tcd;
    import exp1;
    public class exp2 {
    3. Is it illegal to import classes that are not explicitly part of any package or must a class be part of a package to be imported. I read somewhere that while this was always illegal it is only after jdk 1.4.2 that this is being enforced? If this is the case where in the Java Language specification is this actually written as I could not find it either?
    Thanks very much for any help,
    John

    Was just also wondering, 1 other thing, I am looking
    at someone elses code they have 2 classes (Class A
    and Class B) in the same package (pkg). The person
    imports class A into B:
    package pkg;
    import A;
    public class B {
    Is this legal code (or was it ever)?Not if A is really in pkg.A. If there is an A in the unnamed package it was legal, or at least it was understood by the compiler, and now it isn't (to both).
    Can you import or is there a point in importing a class in the same
    package?Only by naming the package in the import statement. If the current and the import statement are in the same package the import is redundant.
    If there is a point would you import just be
    using the class name (this would be illegal after jdk
    1.4) or should you use the whole package name even
    though it is in the package anyways?As I understand it you must always use the whole package name in imports.

    Hi I am hosting my JSP application with Resin 2.17 which uses classes directly in JSP code (not packages). To make this work I had to specify the classpath in Resin.conf and it worked.
    My problem is getting this to work with TomCat or any other application server that will allow me to debug my project in Eclipse or NetBeans IDE. (I have yet to find an IDE that Supports debugging JSP/Java code running on Resin - so I want to switch my application server but I am not sure how to configure my classpath for the application servers to look for java classes in the specified directory just like I did with Resin.

  • Import classes or packages

    import java.util.*;
    import java.util.ArrayList,java.uitl.HashMap;
    What difference it makes to the performance of a class
    file when we import a specific class or an entire package

    For a great Q & A on this very question:
    http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/javaqa/2001-04/01-qa-0406-import.html?
    Here is the quoted information:
    "Q. Does importing an entire package cause any runtime or compile time overhead? For example, does:
    import java.util.*
    compared with:
    import java.util.Vector
    cause any added overhead?
    A. In answering your questions a few definitions are helpful:
    Imports of the type java.util.Vector; are referred to as single type import
    Imports of the form java.util.*; are referred to as import on demand
    Both import on demand and single type import are passive mechanisms. As passive mechanisms, import loads information about the package and types only when it is needed. Indeed, the compiler will load this information only when a type is actually used, not when it is simply imported. The import simply tells the compiler where to look when it actually needs a type.
    So no, importing an entire package produces no more overhead than importing a specific type.
    That being said, it is generally regarded as bad practice to import an entire package using import on demand. Sometimes the number of imports may be large. However, you can quickly look at the list and know what classes the importing class uses. Such a list of imports can provide important documentation to someone unfamiliar with the code. "

  • Importing Class

    I was reading the tutorial on importing class's. This is what
    I read
    Importing classes
    To reference a class in another script, you must prefix the
    class name with the class's package path. The combination of a
    class's name and its package path is the class's fully qualified
    class name. If a class resides in a top-level classpath
    directory--not in a subdirectory in the classpath directory--then
    its fully qualified class name is its class name.
    To specify package paths, use dot (.) notation to separate
    package directory names. Package paths are hierarchical, where each
    dot represents a nested directory. For example, suppose you create
    a class named Data that resides in a com/xyzzycorporation/ package
    in your classpath. To create an instance of that class, you could
    specify the fully qualified class name, as shown in the following
    example:
    var dataInstance = new com.xyzzycorporation.Data();
    My Question is about com/xyzzycorporation/ . would the full
    class parth be c:/com/xyzzycorporation/ . Why do they never state
    the drive letter when teaching about directories.

    Because there is no need. you don't need to reference the
    drive letter.
    Here's the basic jist of what they are saying....
    Single Class File...
    If you create your own custom class and want to use it in
    your flash file, save it into the same directory as the fla file
    and call the classes constructor. By default flash will look inside
    the folder where the fla resides in for the class files if it
    cannot find it inside the default directory.
    Multiple Class Files - 1 Project (often referred to as
    packages)
    Use your qualified domain name but backwards.....
    my domain is www.sd-dezign.com so if I was going to include a
    package of utility class files in my document I would do the
    following
    Create a folder in the same folder with my fla name it com
    and inside that a folder called sddezign and inside that utils and
    all my as files would be in there...the folder structure might look
    like this....
    myfile.fla
    com
    >sddezign
    >>utils
    >>>box.as
    >>>circle.as
    To call the constructor for each class, I have two options.
    The first which is by far the easiest looks like this
    In whatever frame you need to call that class constructor
    include "com.sddezign.utils.*";
    var myBox:Box = new Box();
    The second method requires more typing and can get tedious
    var myBox = new com.sddezign.utils.Box();
    Hope this helps you a bit better.

  • Import Java package in JSP

  • Compilation Error for import classes not found in generated Proxy Class

    Hi,
    We are generating java classes for the COM dll using JCOM com2java compiler.
    We are getting a compilation error for import class not found when compiling the
    generated Proxy java source code. It can't find the com.bea.jcom.Dispatch class that
    the generated Proxy java source code extends. It also can't find com.bea.jcom.Variant
    or com.bea.jcom.Param. These are interfaces or data types or classes used by COM
    library.
    I added weblogic.jar to my class path and the only Dispatch class i found inside
    the weblogic.jar is com.linar.jintegra.Dispatch;
    We have com objects for which we want to develop an EJB client to interface with
    the COM object using JCOM with Native Mode disabled.
    Any help on the compilation error..I tried changing the extends for Dispatch to com.linar.jintegra.Dispatch
    but the other errors are still there.
    To begin with, I think the generated code should not refer to any of the COM data
    types.
    Any help please.
    Thank you in advance,

    Hi,
    I resolved the other errors by changing all references from com.bea.jcom.Variant

    package.

  • Inner class vs. imported class

    Hi everyone,
    I have entitiy beans created for a client's web app I'd like to use in the
    web service using WebLogic Workshop 7.0. Say the classes are imported like
    this in the services:
    import com.hoike.clientname.ap.bean.Invoice
    import com.hoike.clientname.ap.bean.Vendor
    Instances of these classes are used in callback methods and some of the
    service methods.
    When I generate the CTRL file, it actually adds those imported classes as
    inner class of the service defined.
    The problem is that when I try to used these services from another service,
    I cannot use the imported classes (as Invoice or Vendor), but instead I have
    to use the inner class (InvoiceService.Invoice or VendorService.Vendor)
    Does WebLogic Workshop 7.0 only allow you to use inner classes? Is there a
    way to use custom classes as method parameters?
    Thanks in advance!
    Makoto

    how do you declare your inner class?
    Is it (public)
    public static class MyInnerClassor (private)
    private static class MyInnerClassor (package)
    static class MyInnerClassor (protected)
    protected static class MyInnerClassTry to change the way you declare the inner class. Use protected or package or public instead.

  • Problem importing classes and beans

    Hey there. Im having one major fustrating problem! When I code supporting classes and beans for my JSPs I get a code 500 internal server error when trying to import (via <%@ page import="class" %> and <jsp:useBean/>) Im storing my classes and beans in the WEB-INF folder and the calling JSPs are located in /ROOT/tests/8/jsp.jsp. Im using the following to import a class or bean:
    <%@ import="aClass" %>
    Seen as tho its in the WEB-INF folder I won't have to explicitly refer to where the class is located, just the class name.
    I never had this problem when I was using my hosting service. Its only on my localhost server in which I get the Internal Server error.
    Help appreciated, thx.
    PS: Im quite new to JSP/Java Servlet.

    import (via <%@ page import="class" %> and
    <jsp:useBean/>) Im storing my classes and beans in the
    WEB-INF folder try put your class file in WEB-INF/classes.
    or first put bean in the package, like WEB-INF/classes/packagename/beanclass
    in jsp page:
    <jsp:useBean id="Mybean" class="packagename.beanclass" scope="request" />
    Question: is /ROOT a context entry in your server.xml?
    Which JSP Container (version) you use? Maybe your localhost server's set up is different with your hosting.

  • Importing class in a jsp using Tomcat

    Hello All,
    Using Tomcat:
    I have class here:
    examples/WEB-INF/classes/ package/myclass.class
    I have a .jsp here:
    examples/JSPFolder/myjspfile.jsp
    I want to import the class into the jsp.
    I have tried the following combinations of importy lines based on previous posts on these boards and each have failed with same error:
    Unable to load class for JSP
    <%@ page import="myclass" %>
    <%@ page import="myclass.*" %>
    <%@ page import="package.myclass" %>
    <%@ page import="package.myclass.*" %>
    <%@ page import="WEB-INF/classes/package/myclass%>
    I have seen a number of posts for this same problem, and have tried those solutions as well, but none work. I am sure that this is simply a problem of finding the right directory, as I can successfully run the .jsp file iwhen I remove the import line.
    Can someone please help?

    There is a folder for shared packages
    tomcat_root\lib; or
    tomcat_root\common
    also most versions have a lib or common folder for each webapp for packages that are not to be shared.
    tomcat_root\webapps\appname\web-inf\lib
    Agreed that it is strange to allow servlets to import from the classes foler but not JSPs. It should make no difference but it is convension to place single classes in the same folder as the app's directory and packages (especially jar's) in the lib directory.
