flash 9 vs 10

[ggalan]

ive tried publishing a Fla document using AS3 saved as flash 9 and 10.
10 however gave me an error:

1067: Implicit coercion of a value of type flash.geom:Vector3D to an unrelated type org.flintparticles.threeD.geom:Vector3D.

how can this be since it is the same actionscript?

Can you post the code where you are performing the cast from flash.geom.Vector3D to org.flintparticles.threeD.geom.Vector3D?

[ggalan]

here you go

[madgett]

Do a global search and replace for all occurrences of new Vector3D and replace with new org.flintparticles.threeD.geom.Vector3D

great!!! thank you. but why is this so? this means that there are differences in 9 -> 10. and where can one find a list of these changes?

[madgett]

Vector3D is new in Flash 10. It's in the flash 10 flash.geom package. The problem is that the compiler doesn't know the difference between your custom Vector3D and the flash Vector3D, so you have to be a little more explicit, which is what we did.

You can have a look at the Flash CS4 language reference for more information: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/AS3LCR/Flash_10.0/
