This is how I like to organize that type of thing - I would do an array
of objects - then just set properties on those objects, some of which
can be arrays if you want - or anything else. Like this:
var numObjects:Number = 15;
var Config:Array = new Array();
for(var i=0; i<numObjects; i++){
Config[i] = new Object();
Config[i].typeA = new Array("A");
Config[i].typeB = new Array("A", "B");
Config[i].typeC = new Array("A", "B", "C");
};
Then to access the configuration for type C:
var myConfigArray:Array = Config[3].typeC//returns an array of "A", "B",
"C"
var myConfig:Array = Config[3].typeC[2]//returns "C"
var numValues:Number = Config[3].typeC.length; //returns 3
