Danny,
The shortest way I found of doing it is:
var b:Array={arr:a}.arr;
i.e. make it a property of an object, then unbox it again.
Silly, but works syntactically. I'd love to see a shorter way.
In AS3, Array(x) as an array creator still exists - you get around it
using the new 'as' operator:
var b:Array=a as Array;

I'm trying to do something like this:
if (a instanceof Array) {
doMyArrayFunction(a)
}
the doMyArrayFunction expects an Array object, so this throws an error. What
I would normally do in this case is cast the object to the class I'm
expecting, but unfortunately Array(a) doesn't leave a unchanged, as it would
with most classes, but returns [a] - the array gets nested.
Anyone have a suggestion as to how I can get around this? The only thing I
can think of is Array(a)[0], which seems a bit stupid.
(I'm in AS2)
