Submitting Swf's On Ng & Classes

[Tired-Maniac]

Been reading up on some AS3 recently and i've come to learn that classes are probably the most important thing when writing code in AS3, as they are fundamentally the building blocks for everything that's going to be programmed.

It's weird though because custom classes are saved as ".as" files in the same directory as the fla/swf, and therefore because these classes are the building blocks of the program it's going to need these ".as" files to run everything properly, because that's what the .swf is referring to so the code will function properly.

Thing is, you can't upload .as class files onto NG, just the .swf's so how do people who have created .as class files upload there shit without it screwing up? I know the question might be silly for some, but i'm really new to this stuff, thanks.

The .swf file contains 'copies' of all your classes after compiling, the .as files are only used by the editor-program.
Try dragging/copying you .swf out of your project-folder and running it, it should work without all the .as files.

The .as files are compiled. They are not required to run the .SWF file.

So even if I was to upload a single .swf to ng, that used a whole bunch of .as files, just uploading that single file would still make everything work?

Yes, they don't give you options to upload anything else anyway.

Thanks!
