Error #2180: It is illegal to move AVM1 content (AS1 or AS2)

[tarafenton]

I have an actionscript project that loads in swfs and jpgs into the displaylist. It worked in Flash, but now that I converted to Flex, I'm getting this error when I add and remove the content in the displaylist:

Error #2180: It is illegal to move AVM1 content (AS1 or AS2) to a different part of the displayList when it has been loaded into AVM2 (AS3) content.

I've searched and I've seen AVM2Loader class, but not sure how to implement it or if that would even help. Besides that, there doesn't seem to be a whole lot out there on the subject. Can someone help me out and let me know how I can correct this error?

Thanks

You cannot reparent AVM1 SWFs... just move the loader, don't try to move loader's content separately.

I changed my array to a vector and put the loader into the array instead of the loaded image

LoadImages.as

private var singleImage_arr:Vector.<Loader> = new Vector.<Loader>();

private function onImageLoaded(event:Event):void {
    var loader:Loader=Loader(event.target.loader);
    var image:Bitmap=Bitmap(loader.content);
    singleImage_arr[current]=loader;
}

public function mySingleImage():Vector.<Loader> {
    return singleImage_arr;
}

but I'm getting an error in my ControlPages.as
1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: Vector.

private var singleImage_arr:Vector.<Loader>=LoadImages.getInstance().mySingleImage();

Are you sure you're compiling against FP10 playerglobals.swc?
Check this page for more info:

I didn't think it was that, but I did go to the page you posted and followed the instructions. I also tested it by changing the type to Array

private var singleImage_arr:Array=LoadImages.getInstance().mySingleImage();

which gave me this error

1067: Implicit coercion of a value of type __AS3__.vec:Vector.<flash.display:Loader> to an unrelated type Array.

so I can safely say those classes are accessible.
Any other suggestions?

Thanks

You cannot get this error

1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: Vector.

unless you compile for FP9... Vector is a top-level class... so there's no way it can be not found in the AS project targeting FP10

Even in my properties > Actionscript Compiler

Require Flash Player version 10 0 0


One thing that is funky with my FB3 though is that when I save it doesn't update my problems. I have to Project > Clean for my changes to be saved and new problems to update. What could be?

Thanks again

Could it be that I am pushing a Loader into the Vector array?
I used it as Vector.<MovieClip> in the same project and that worked

I'd simply move / rename the old playerglobals.swc to make sure I'm compiling against the proper one... there seems to be an issue with FB, it may "forget" what major version ware you wanting to use... But I don't compile through FB, so, don't take my word there for ultimate truth here

i've deleted it and added it again, so that doesn't seem to be it.
Do you think it has anything to do with my loader code?

private function loadImage():void {
               if (myArray[current][1] == "") {
                //create an empty bitmap for the loop to continue
                var emptyImage:Loader = new Loader();
                singleImage_arr[current]=emptyImage;
                //skip to loadImage
                current++;
                loadImage();
            } else {
                imageLoader=new Loader();
                imageLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,onImageLoaded);
                request=new URLRequest("images/" + myArray[current][1]);
                imageLoader.load(request);
            }
        }
        
        private function onImageLoaded(event:Event):void {
            var loader:Loader=Loader(event.target.loader);
            var image:Bitmap=Bitmap(loader.content);
            singleImage_arr[current]=loader;
}
