Question

this is the code, i am using flex builder 4.5,

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<s:Application xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009" 

           xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark" 
           xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx" minWidth="955" minHeight="600">
<fx:Declarations>
    <!-- Place non-visual elements (e.g., services, value objects) here -->
</fx:Declarations>
<fx:Script>
    <![CDATA[
        public var ss:Array = ["a", "b", "c"];
        trace(ss[0]);
        public var str:String = "Good Luck";
        trace(str);


    ]]>
</fx:Script>

</s:Application>

i get red cross next to trace statment and fault is

“1120:Access of defined property ss”

i have tried the commented line as well but no luck. i have tried with 3.5, 4.1 and 4.5 sdk.
Am i missing something? please guide!!
(i tried googling it but nothing came up )

thanks in advance.
(updated the code)

Answer 1

public var ss:String is a field declaration and trace(ss) is an action in code execution flow. Place trace(ss) in an appropriate scope (in a function aka method) and it will be compiled and executed without any problem.
