Ok, finally I sorted it out. It's really twisted.
Firts of all, the best manner to access the needed class is indeed by
"property literal" (the fact that the class is just a property of
it's parent namespace), so that is the most neat solution IMO:
var bananaType:String = "green";
var inst:Banana = new org.monkeys.bananas[bananaType]();
What turned out to _really_ be the problem is the following. Looks
like the Flash compiler actually _omits_ the classes that I reference
using import if they are not literally called upon in code (which is
ridiculous). I have the following in my class:
import com.julik.star.stack.layout.Layout;
import com.julik.stack.layout.Horizontal;
import com.julik.stack.layout.Vertical;
import com.julik.stack.layout.Burst;
class com.julik.star.Stack extends com.julik.star.Widget {
// bla bla
function Stack() {
layout = new com.julik.star.stack.layout.Horizontal; // this class
DOES get imported and is visible in _globals
}
}
The problem is - I got to have "new someClass" somewhere in my code
for the other "layouts" to appear under _globals, after which I can
properly instantiate them.
I wonder if it's a bug or just one of those places where "It's gonna
be worse than Java" is showing :-)
