This trick came from my blog post a couple of years ago: http://www.peterjoel.com/blog/?archive=2004_01_01_archive.xml
It is stable in the future because it relies on the Flash Authoring compiler, and not on anything in the player. AS2 compiling won't be changing ever - and even if it does, you can always just keep compiling with Flash 8. Of course it won't work withAS3, but that's not exactly necessary...

Morning List! I've been asked to take a look at this: http://osflash.org/flashcoders/as2#creating_a_class_instance_based_on_moviec lip_without_a_symbol_in_the_library and find out whether: "the suggested implementation in the link is not a "hack" that relies on a bug in the Flash plug-in and is a genuine solution that will serve us through any future plug-ins." Does anyone know if this is a 'hack' and will be stable in future. Although I'm thinking that future plug-ins are going to be focusing on compiling AS3 and the current virtual machine will remain unchanged so not affecting the functionality of this trick. Would be great to know for sure though.
