TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed

Question

Hi,I have a project where a 3D VR swf created and compiled in Flash Builder that is being loaded into a Gaia site. The Gaia site is being coded in Flash Builder but compiled in the Flash CS4 IDE. In order to use strong typing I have set up a Flash Builder Library project that holds a few interfaces and VOs to be passed between the Gaia site and the 3D VR Component. That library's swc is referenced in all the projects (Flash CS4 IDE and FB).If I try to pass a typed object from the site to the 3D VR, I get a coercion failed error. The error only happens when the 3D component compiled in FB expects that custom VO object. If I set the function to expect a generic Object type, it works. I can access the values of my custom VO object manually.The full error is"TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert components.vr.vo::VRRoomDataVO@4640fec1 to components.vr.vo.VRRoomDataVO."Is there a trick to share custom VOs between Flash IDE projects and Flash Builder projects?Cheers,Jerome.

Hi,I had all but given up, when I came across an unrelated post on ApplicationDomain. It turned out to be the answer I was looking for! In Gaia the site node allows you to set the domain to "current". Now all loaders will load swfs using a single domain and typed object should resolve correctly accross multiple swf files! I had a VREvent that would through an error previously and now works like a charm! My custom VOs also pass from one swf to another correctly.This setup should also reduce memory usage as only one class definition is used.hth.Jerome.
