Jeash and NME

Jeash's goal is to be compatible with the flash API, it's a beneficial
side-effect that NME's goal is the same. I think for this subset,
compatibility is mostly there.. unless you are pointing out inconsistent
behaviour in the flash API ?

Hi Niel,

My issue is that when I try to use 0,8,8 I then get this compile time error:-

/usr/lib/haxe/lib/nme/3,2,0/nme/display/DisplayObject.hx:763: characters 0-23 : Class not found : flash.display.DisplayObject

The code in NME at this point is:-

#else
typedef DisplayObject = flash.display.DisplayObject;
#end

Previous to these lines were all the DisplayObject logic nested inside this part of the conditional:-

package nme.display;
#if (cpp || neko)

Any ideas?

Much thanks,

Sam

It's possible that this is related to #620 in the haxe compiler issue
tracker, where the --remap flag does not always work as expected [1]. This
is marked as "wont fix", so NME should be pointing to jeash's class
directly (i.e. jeash.display.DisplayObject). You could try updating to the
latest haxe trunk copy, that might fix it too.
