In actionscript, why is my static class member variable not the same when accessed from different parts of my app?

Question

I have an actionscript class with a static member variable defined.

public class A
{
     public static var x:int;
}

When I try to access it from different parts in my code I don't get the same value in each spot.

A.x 

I am accessing the variable in different modules that are loaded, so they are all in their own separate .swf file. Could this by why?

Answer 1

Seems like an application domain problem. The main swf and the modules seem to be accessing their own copies of the A class. You should probably change the way you load your modules.
