TypeError: Error #1007: Instantiation attempted on a non-constructor
TypeError: Error #1007: Instantiation attempted on a non-constructor. If you see this error without any obvious reason it might be one more bug of Flash Player. Flash Player doesn’t allow to instantiate internal classes in static section. Brief example:
The only workaround – to move instantiation of B somewhere else. For example, in constructor of A:12345678package {public class A {static var b:B = new B();}}class B {}1234567891011121314package {public class A {static var b:B;public function A() {if (!b) {b = new B();}}}}class B {} -
describeType versus Object.prototype
I discovered that describeType fails if you defined a methods in Object.prototype
An example:
123456Object.prototype.hello = function():void {trace("hello");}var x:XML = describeType(Main);trace(x.factory.methods.(@name = "hello"));This code produces exception:
TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and has no properties.Unfortunately I didn’t find any solution to fix it. Just try to not use Object.prototype .
