I confirm, it's avmplus.describeTypeJSON()
This is a typical use:
typeInfo = avmplus. describeTypeJSON (cls, avmplus.INCLUDE_BASES
| avmplus.INCLUDE_INTERFACES
| avmplus.INCLUDE_VARIABLES
| avmplus.INCLUDE_ACCESSORS
| avmplus.INCLUDE_METHODS
| avmplus.INCLUDE_METADATA
| avmplus.INCLUDE_CONSTRUCTOR
|avmplus.INCLUDE_TRAITS);
And it will return an object with dynamic properties...

Objet : Re: [FLEXJS] describeType
Told you it was under-documented ;-). The secret handshake is apparently to
ignore autocomplete and use google. Looks like it is
avmplus.describeTypeJSON(). I've not used it, but there was a recent thread
about it.
