I am loading a swf into a new application domain as suggested above, but only difference is i'm using LoaderMax, and when I unload the swf the application domain appears to be holding onto a reference to the swf as it can still access movieclips within it. If anyone has had a similar problem I've posted a full explanation on the greensock forums: http://forums.greensock.com/viewforum.php?f=6 Any help would be appreciated, Thanks, Scott Good article, very poor documentation from Adobe on application domain issues.

One of the problems was making sure that all resources were removed, even after I ensured that all listeners/bitmap/sound and everything else you normal check that keep a reference to an loaded swf, I still ran into the problem of the external swf not fully unloading. Perfect timing I must say. Great article, I recently found my self troubleshooting the same problem, A virtual world with mini-games loaded into it.

My problem actually came from loading external components I've created as individual SWFs in FlashDevelop, all with the main class as Main.as (default for FlashDevelop). The parent application's main class is also Main.as, and it was quiet weird when running the SWF component individually would work fine, but loading it into the parent application would RELOAD the parent application AGAIN. Ugh! Thanks for the explanation, it’s a great resource for fixing this issue.

This seems to be the only article on the web which directly addresses the workflow that I would like to use for my game. I've been toying with the idea of building a level editor into a game I am working on. This would have meant that all the assets in the game would have to either be static or in the form of Sprite Sheets so they could be loaded at runtime and incorporated into the game. But now I can allow modders to use Flash Pro as their animation platform (which only makes sense). I still wish Adobe would document a lot of these features though. So keep up the good work picking up their slack! ;P Hey, Great article and a million Thank You’s.

You might need to rethink the architecture of your application to prevent assigning objects between different ApplicationDomains. @Will Since your classes are in different ApplicationDomains, they are considered as different classes, even though their names are the same.

You can always create an instance of the second class and then copy the properties from the first instance. @Nacho As far as I know, once a class is instantiated, you may not change its definition.
