Kind of yes and no...
(Hello to the group by the way, new here)
Please excuse my lack of correct terminology, and number of
assumptions, I think...
Once you understand the underlying structure of Flash, you realise
that referencing properties, variables, and commands is very similar
to referencing anything contained within an Object...
So in object "Foo", you have a property called "bar" then you
reference it through foo["bar"]. The useful part is that Flash will
eval() everything within those brackets. So you could also reference
foo["ba"+"r"] to the same effect.
So with:
var theCommand = new commands [ commandNameToCheck ] ();
You're actually looking within the new commands structure, with the
square brackets doing their job, working like an eval().
Not sure if that was useful or not, but I'm pretty sure that's how
it's going down.

I am always wrong, but:
see the [] ?
this is 'eval()' equivalent ...
so, not the same than
var myStr = "com.bob.Bar";
var myInstance = new myStr();
see ?
Are you sure?
If it doesn't, then
var theCommand = new commands [ commandNameToCheck ] ();
definite does. It's used in ARP.

Hi Chris,
var qname:String = "org.foo.Bar";
var x = new qname ();
That won't work. Did you mean:
var qname:String = "org.foo.Bar";
var x = new eval(qname)();
