But I haven’t tried opening the same file with a windows version yet…

package
{
import flash.display.DisplayObject;
import flash.display.SpreadMethod;
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.utils.Dictionary;
import flash.utils.getDefinitionByName;

public class Main extends Sprite
{
private var man1Red:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
private var man1Green:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
private var man1Blue:MovieClip = new MovieClip();

public function Main():void
{
//red fill
initGraphic(man1Red, 0xFF0000);
//green fill
initGraphic(man1Green, 0×00FF00);
//blue fill
initGraphic(man1Blue, 0×0000FF);

showDirection(“Red”);
}
private function initGraphic(mc:MovieClip, color:uint):void
{
with (mc)
{
graphics.beginFill(color);
graphics.drawRect(0, 0, 50, 50);
graphics.endFill();
}
}
private function showDirection(color:String):void
{
if (this.numChildren > 0)
{
removeChildAt(0);
}
addChildAt(this["man1" + color], 0);
}
}
}

var man:Class = getDefinitionByName(“man1″ + dir) as Class;
var obj = new man() as DisplayObject;
object.removeChildAt(0);
object.addChild(obj);

I get this error:

ReferenceError: Error #1065: Variable man1UR is not defined.

When, as you can see above, it is defined…?

I have something similar to this, all though not the same, I have no experience with SWC files.

I have defined 3 MovieClips:

var man1DR:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
var man1UL:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
var man1UR:MovieClip = new MovieClip();

I want to add one of these to a movieClip as a child, depending on a variable ‘dir’.

“man1″ + dir gives me the name of one of those 3 movieClips, but if I do:

object.addChild(“man1″+ dir);

I get an error as it is a string and not the actual movieClip. Do you know how I fix this??

FYI, I got a relative path working. If you’re using FlashDevelop (3.0.0 Beta9), it needs to be relative to your .as3proj file.
This worked: -include-libraries dev\swc\videos.swc
