Careful with package names

Don’t give package names the same name as their class i.e. layout.Layout.

This circumstance is probably pretty rare, but if you use a class for example called Layout don’t have it in a package called layout. The package layout.Layout would likely cause problems. Although if you include an additional folder for example as2 making the package ‘as2.layout.Layout’ this will work fine.

This exception is raised in Flash 8 so this tip only really applies to MX and MX2004 where no exception is raised.
