No Output In My Class

Hi i am using FlashDevelop and i have created the following classes,
Vehicle.as

PHP Code:

---

package   
{

    import flash.display.MovieClip; 
    import flash.events.Event; 
     
    public class Vehicle extends MovieClip  
    { 
        public var _gasMileage:Number; 
        public var _fuelAvailable:Number; 
        public var _milesTraveled:Number = 0; 
        public var _go:Boolean; 
         
         
        //public var vehicle:Vehicle = new Vehicle(21, 18); 
         
        public function Vehicle(mpg:Number = 21, fuel:Number = 18) :void  
        { 
            _gasMileage = mpg; 
            _fuelAvailable = fuel; 
            this.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, onLoop, false, 0, true); 
            construct(); 
               
              
        } 
         
        public function construct() :void 
        { 
            //addChild(vehicle); 
            //vehicle.go(); 
        } 
        public function onLoop(evt:Event) :void 
        { 
            if (_go) 
            { 
                _fuelAvailable--; 
                _milesTraveled += _gasMileage; 
                if ( _fuelAvailable < 1 ) 
                { 
                    this.removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, onLoop); 
                } 
                trace(this, _milesTraveled, _fuelAvailable); 
                this.x = _milesTraveled; 
            } 
             
        } 
         
        // Start engine and drive 
        public function go() :void 
        { 
            _go = true; 
             
        } 
         
          
    } 
  
}

VehicleOnly.as

Code:

---

package 
{
   
    /**
    * VehicleOnly.as is meant to show 
    * @author Luong Vuong

    */
   
    import flash.display.Sprite;
    import flash.events.Event;
   
    public class VehicleOnly extends Sprite 
    {
        public var vehicle:Vehicle = new Vehicle(21, 18);
       
       
        public function VehicleOnly() :void 
        {
           
            initialize();
            construct();
        }
       
            // Initialize all variables
        public function initialize() :void
        {
            addChild(vehicle);     
               
        }
       
        // Add listeners and add UI to display list
        public function construct() :void
        {
           
            vehicle.go();
               

        }
       
        // Class methods
    }
 
}

When i create an instance of the Vehicle class in my VehicleOnly.as file and send the values to my constructor, and run the appplication, it does not show any output to my Output panel. I should be getting the following:

[object Vehicle] 21 17
[object Vehicle] 42 16
...
[object Vehicle] 336 2
[object Vehicle] 357 1
[object Vehicle] 378 0

can somebody tell me exactly why i am not getting this??

Thanks

hi,

Working for me...
Files Attached.

Hi,

i kind of new that it would work on Adobe IDE but, i'm sadly not using it to build my class, like i said i'm using FlashDevelop. can you try to do this on FlashDevelop because i'm still not getting any output,.

hi,

I also use FlashDevelop, but yes, I use it with Flash CS4.
So, are you using the Flex SDK?

AAH LIGHT BULB!!!!! I found out what the problem was. It struck me as i was sleeping, seriusly, after tackling it for 2 hours getting slightly frustrated. The problem was not the actual code in my VehicleOnly.as file. It was that on FlashDevelop every time you create a new .as file you need to set it to "Always Compile".

It was compiling my Vehicle.as file and not my VehicleOnly.as file, hope that makes sense.

Sorry if i have caused any inconvenience by the way.

Sure, no problem, glad you solved it.

Yes, that's right, you should be compiling VehicleOnly.as. When I tested it in Flash, that was the Class that I used as my Document Class.

In the meantime I've installed the Flex SDK, which was cool.
