addChild without a class?

[macdonjo]

I'm working without a class. I seen this code example, but it doesn't work since my project does not use classes.

//create an object of our ship from the Ship class
var ourShip:Ship = new Ship();
//add it to the display list
stage.addChild(ourShip);

How do I add library movieclips to the stage or into a symbol on the stage?

Nevermind, I figured it out.

It's

var myChild:MovieClip = new linkageName();
addChild(myChild);

All you got to do is create linkage on the symbol.

you may be suprised but if you don't create .as file for your class, Flash will do it for you. Click on your linkage symbol in library and right click -> Edit class. You will simply get empty class statement with constructor. If you need add something functionality to the symbol you can simply edit it and save as you named it in library. Very clever and fast.

Wow, thanks. That's interesting.
