Actionscript compiler MTASC and Events - actionscript

Question

Please help, how to make netEvent work in a compiled flash, for instance I can't even make macromedia example to work:
var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
nc.connect(null);
var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc);
ns.onMetaData = function(infoObject:Object) {
for (var propName:String in infoObject) {
trace(propName + " = " + infoObject[propName]);
}
};
ns.play("http://www.helpexamples.com/flash/video/water.flv");
It must return metainfo, but seems like no event is called at all.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks!

This is right from Adobe docs:
package {
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.events.NetStatusEvent;
import flash.events.SecurityErrorEvent;
import flash.media.Video;
import flash.net.NetConnection;
import flash.net.NetStream;
import flash.events.Event;
public class NetConnectionExample extends Sprite {
private var videoURL:String = "Video.flv";
private var connection:NetConnection;
private var stream:NetStream;
public function NetConnectionExample() {
connection = new NetConnection();
connection.addEventListener(NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS, netStatusHandler);
connection.addEventListener(SecurityErrorEvent.SECURITY_ERROR, securityErrorHandler);
connection.connect(null);
}
private function netStatusHandler(event:NetStatusEvent):void {
switch (event.info.code) {
case "NetConnection.Connect.Success":
connectStream();
break;
case "NetStream.Play.StreamNotFound":
trace("Stream not found: " + videoURL);
break;
}
}
private function securityErrorHandler(event:SecurityErrorEvent):void {
trace("securityErrorHandler: " + event);
}
private function connectStream():void {
stream = new NetStream(connection);
stream.addEventListener(NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS, netStatusHandler);
stream.client = new CustomClient();
var video:Video = new Video();
video.attachNetStream(stream);
stream.play(videoURL);
addChild(video);
}
}
}
class CustomClient {
public function onMetaData(info:Object):void {
trace("metadata: duration=" + info.duration + " width=" + info.width + " height=" + info.height + " framerate=" + info.framerate);
}
public function onCuePoint(info:Object):void {
trace("cuepoint: time=" + info.time + " name=" + info.name + " type=" + info.type);
}
}
Looks to me like you're missing quite a bit in the code that you posted and you won't get what you're looking for by missing required setup code.
