How about using the abstract factory design pattern?

public class MyFactory {
  public static function createObject(objType:String):* {
    switch (objType) {
      case "Foo":
        return new Foo();
      case "Bar":
        return new Bar();
      default:
        return new Foo();
  }
}

var myObj:* = MyFactory.createObject("Foo");

Hi, I'm trying to instantiate a new class object from a xml attribute which
is a string, but its not having any of it.
I've tried casting the string to an object and also using this['class_id']
etc but no luck.

Does someone have a solution?

Thanks,
