flash as3 serial port - actionscript-3

Question

Hey trying to bring data in through the serial port but i get this error.
1037: Packages cannot be nested.
I then need to take these values and use 1 to control video playback and the other to control the audio volume
package
{
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.net.XMLSocket;
import flash.events.DataEvent;
public class receiveData extends Sprite
{
public static const PORT:Number = 5331;
public static const COMMA:String = ",";
public static const LOCALHOST:String = "127.0.0.1";
private var socket:XMLSocket = null;
public function receiveData()
{
super();
init();
}
private function init():void
{
socket = new XMLSocket();
socket.addEventListener( DataEvent.DATA, doSocketData );
socket.connect( LOCALHOST, PORT );
}
protected function doSocketData( event:DataEvent ):void
{
var parts:Array = null;
var sensorone:Number = 0;
var sensortwo:Number = 0;
var values:String = event.data.toString();
parts = values.split( COMMA );
trace( parts[0]);
trace( parts[1]);
sensorone = new Number( parts[0] );
sensortwo = new Number( parts[1] );
}
}
}

So basically you need to put that code in a separate AS3 file and set that as the document class or as the class file for a MovieClip you make in Flash. Alternatively you could use a different IDE like FlashBuilder or FlashDevelop or FDT and avoid the Flash IDE (which as a programmer primarily I feel muddles things up quite a bit).

Looks like you're on the right track though if you're using tinkerproxy or something of the sort to forward the data (have fun I gotta get myself back into that, check out links in th description of my vid http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=71eFWknHKEM&list=UUSz-eugjE1d6yki6ZT51CKg&index=17&feature=plcp :)
