I'm not sure if it's entirely impossible to assign one class to multiple
movieclips, but if that's true than the easiest way to overcome that problem
is make a baseclass 'Country' and have Brazil extends Country.

You still have the silly task of assigning all your countries to a
different class, but at least your code will be easy to manage.

good luck

The concept of any movieClip be a class is very powerfull, given the
ability to do new ClassName to create a copy of any clip. But the Auto
Generated class and the fact that you can´t have two movieclips with
the same class is something that is limiting flash capabilities.

Example:
I have a A world map where each country is a movieclip. And every one
will have the same behavior. Before flash 9, what I did is assign a
class called Country to each movie clip. This way, I can easy update
the behavior of all at the same time.

With Flash 9, I can´t assign a class with the same name and can´t
specify a base class to the Auto Generated extends.
My suggestion is to do something like this:

When ask for AutoGenerate, a check box would enable an different base
class, and I would write on the textbox. So a movieClip called Brazil,
would have a autoGenerated class called Brazil that extends the class
Country, witch would be my base class.

I´m shure no one can deny that this feature is essential.
