MTASC & fusionCharts

[tsc]

As I read in the knowledgebase it is not possible to compile swfs with fusioncharts-classes, which disappointed me very much.

 

Now I found a dirty workaround to avoid compiling in Flash IDE and wait for minutes until it is finished.

 

 

 

simply instantiate the class containing the fusioncharts-instances using a String, like that:

 

 

 

var chartsContainingClass:mvc.AbstractView = new eval("views.GraphView")();

 

 

 

This way they are hidden to MTASC, but also not present at compile-time, which is sad.

 

In order to make them present you simply need to instantiate the class once in the Flash IDE and to tell

 

MTASC to "-keep" (AS2 classe compiled by MMC into the SWF). The only necessary code in the .as -file

 

needs to include the LoadingFunctions.as & AppMessages.as, the dummy call of the "chartsContainingClass":

 

 

 

#include "../src/com/fusioncharts/includes/LoadingFunctions.as"

 

#include "../src/com/fusioncharts/includes/AppMessages.as"

 

var chartsContainingClass:views.GraphView = new views.GraphView();

 

// thats the main entry point of my application

 

MyApplication.main();

 

stop();

 

 

 

the only flaw is that you won't get any compile errors for classes beyond the GraphView (i.e), as MTASC doesn't know about the class.

 

 

 

(hope it helps)
