Loader?

xhunterko

I'm trying to do this seemingly simple program:

package;

import flixel.FlxG;
import flixel.FlxSprite;
import flixel.FlxState;
import flixel.text.FlxText;
import flixel.ui.FlxButton;
import flixel.math.FlxMath;

//with your imports
import nme.net.URLLoader;
import nme.net.URLRequest;

class MenuState extends FlxState
{

//later on

public var myLoader:URLLoader;

override public function create():Void
{
super.create();
//http://www.newgrounds.com/dump/item/f62b9334350d2718bdc5917a0f84ea05/letters.txt

//make a new loader
myLoader = new URLloader();
//new request - for a file in the same folder called 'someTextFile.txt'
var myRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://www.newgrounds.com/dump/item/f62b9334350d2718bdc5917a0f84ea05/someTextFile.txt");

//wait for the load
myLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onLoadComplete)

//load!
myLoader.load(myRequest);

}

function onLoadComplete(e:Event):Void
{
trace(myLoader.data);
}

override public function update(elapsed:Float):Void
{
super.update(elapsed);
}

}

And I am getting the following error:

source/MenuState.hx:42: lines 42-45 : Type not found : Event
source/MenuState.hx:29: characters 13-28 : Type not found : URLloader

source/Main.hx:9: lines 9-16 : Defined in this class

Anyone have any experience or know how to use this with haxeflixel?

I import flash.net.URLLoader; instead of nme.... and it works for me...worth a try? As for Event you probably want to import openfl.events.Event;.

Also in HaxeDevelop you can press Ctrl+Shift+1 when cursor is at unknown type to add import line. Saves a lot of time!

@IBwWG When you say "works for me" does the text change or does it not throw errors?

@xhunterko Sorry I mean in my project context, using that import both compiles properly (the errors you asked about) and loads data from the URL I specify. I didn't try changing the code you posted.
