[osflash] AS2 inheritance problem. flash bug ?

[Dani Bacon]

hey Keith and yes, you are right, and actually i am importing
AbstractMarker, but didnt mention it. i only showed one import meaning to
explain that ReflectUtil is taken from as2lib.

since my post i actually got it back running. i did it by moving
AbstractMarker out of its package. compiling it using MMC [flash ide]. then
compiling it using MTASC [through FlashDevelop], this time it worked. and
then moving it back into the marker package and recompiling with MMC and
then MTASC and it worked.

so i believe it has to something to do with one or any combination of the
following : a compiler /  a bug /  flashdevelop /  packages /  imports.

anyone ? any ideas ?
