Aaron,
What are you trying to do..?
There's no point in dynamically casting. Casting is just used to
tell the compiler that you know what you're doing.
For example:
class A
{
function doSomething(){/**/}
}
class B extends A
{
function doSomethingElse(){/**/}
}
var someObject:A=new B();
someObject.doSomethingElse(); // Wouldn't compile.
var someCastObject:B=B(someObject);
someCastObject.doSomethingElse(); // Would compile.
If you don't know what types you're dealing with 'til runtime - i.e.
you're working with dynamic types - you should never hit a situation
where you need this kind of casting.
Can you give an example of what you're trying to do..?

no that is just the usual way of doing it.. I need to be able to dynamically
upcast..
like: vart = new _global['somepackage']['someClass']();
something like that.. i can't remeber how to do that.. with prototypes or
_global..
