Looking at the error messages produced for the problem files, I see that
this sort of syntax is causing the problem,

  private var a, b:String;

The parser as2api uses only expects a single variable to be declared in
such a statement.  I didn't realise that a list of variables was
possible.


Given the usage I can see in your example code, it appears that the
type (String, in the above example) applies to all elements in the list.
I would have thought that it would be possible to apply a type to each
member, i.e.,

  private var a:Number, b:String;

I don't have the necessary tools in front of me to check this though.
Can anyone confirm the exact syntax?


thanks,
dave
