Question

Why do I get the error "Packages cannot be nested"?

I had a FLA file that somehow had the AS3 erased, then I found the SWF and decompiled the file and retrieved the code.

It is the same code as before, and yet when I output it I get the error "Packages cannot be nested".

I have seen them nested before, and the Adobe site says you can do this.

What can I do?

It's a big file 2000 lines of AS3 or so.......

that's not going to work. there's no way for flash to find Blanket1322C.

put those two classes in two different class files named correctly so flash can find them.

I will give it a try but it may be a little over my head I may have to find some help.

But thank you very much you gave me some hope!

what code is triggering the error?

Only compiling it, when I check the syntax, no problem.

I got the code from a working SWF online, it works fine.

I am beginning to think it is corrupted.

What do you think?

decompiled swfs often have errors. but you should still be able to check the code and correct it.
