[swfmill] Splitting simple dialect in several files

[Michael Pliskin]

Hello Gabino,

  thanks for the reply, this <import> is to be used as a sample only -
  it has id attribute in reality, and it works without <include> tag,
  so the problem is not here - the <include tag> is what I am trying
  to make work..

Mike

GT> I'm just guessing here, but I think the import tag needs a referrer name.

GT> Here's an XML file I made that has a jpeg and mp3 embedded in it:

GT> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>

GT> <movie version="8" width="800" height="600" framerate="30">

GT> <background color="#fcfcfc" />

GT> <library>

GT> <clip id="img1" import="images/784I.jpg" />

GT> <clip id ="fallout" import="the_fallout_PunkIsDead.mp3" />

GT> </library>

GT> <frame>

GT> <place id="fallout" /><place id="file1" />

GT> </frame>

GT> </movie>

GT> I get SWFMill to export and swf from this: swfmill simple file.xml file.swf
GT> in my .hx file I am referring to it:
GT> var fallout=new Sound(null);

GT> fallout.attachSound("fallout"); // this is the id from the xml file

GT> fallout.start();


GT> And my .hx file needs this at the top:
GT> import flash.Sound;
