Flash Builder 4.6 issue: Access to undefined property - clean its not the answer

I have a lot of strange info in my project in Flash Builder, why ?

"Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant" and "Access to undefined property", "Call to a possibly undefined method "

When i go to those class and make space " " and save, parrent class is ok, cleaning doesnt help for long time.

What is the problem ?

code-example:

import utils.DbUtils;
....
....
public function afterDbInit():void{
                personsCollection = DbUtils.getAllObjects();
                calendarViewId.loadDefaultCalendar();
            }

flash-builder-issue

but its not problem with CODE, it Flash Builder iSSUE, when i found DbUtils Class File, and opne it, made one space more and save, issue gone.

Project is compiling but i cannot use ctrl+lpm to go to the selected class file, compiler doesnt seen it

personsCollection = DbUtils.getAllObjects();

but after few debbuggging runs, this exlamation icon, and orange dot appear again

<fx:Script>
        <![CDATA[
            import database.DBConnection;
            import database.Database;
            import database.DatabaseEvent;
            import database.DatabaseResponder;

i have all imports there

The approach to specify the full qualified class name worked also for me.

Thus, i change the class definition from

public class NumberInputBase extends TextInput

to

public class NumberInputBase extends mx.controls.TextInput

I found something interesting about my "Access to Undefined Property" warnings that might help someone.

I was working on a module (ofcMtc.mxml and ofcMtc.as) of which I later decided I didn't like the design. So I renamed both the mxml and action script files to a different name in order to save off the work (ofcMtcOLD.mxml and ofcMtcOLD.as).

Then I recreated that same module using the original file names for both the mxml and action script.

Now keep in mind the OLD version still had a line of code in the mxml associating the original action script file name (mx:script source="ofcMtc.as") - and it was picking this up in the compiling - causing the warnings to appear in my new version.

By removing the mx:script code from the OLD mxml file - the warnings went away in the new version.

Hope this helps someone.

I had the same issue with a class that contains a public variable. It showed up as "undefined property" when trying to access the property even though the code works well. The Quick Fix / Assist (Ctrl + 1) asked to create the property, so i tabbed and pressed enter to have the code completion help me with that. The editor removed the warning, but did no changes to my class.

I'd say this is a weird bug, and just wanted to let anyone else that gets this issue that the Quick Fix / Assist can actually help out with this issue.

If DataBaseEvent is an external class, not the one bundled with Flex, you could try referencing it by it's full name.

For example, i got the same error with custom implementation of JSON (package vk.api.serialization.json)

I had to change all lines like 

JSON.encode(data)

to

vk.api.serialization.json.JSON.encode(data)

It helped.

You haven't imported the DatabaseEvent type. On a Windows PC, Ctrl+Shift+O should organise your imports.
