import extremefx_comar.i18n.locales.EN_US;
trace(EN_US.test);
var n:String = "extremefx_comar.i18n.locales.EN_US";
var klass:Class = getDefinitionByName(n) as Class;
trace(klass);
var ca:Object = new klass();
trace(ca);
Output:
boo
[class EN_US]
[object EN_US]

The problem is, I'm using getDefinitionByName in other places, and it
works fine.
The specific class (EN_US) is included, but I can't instantiate it.
Also, I was wrong on one of my statements: The trace of the static var
(trace(klass.test)) worked fine.
That what makes this a mystery for me.. The class is on the flash,
accessing its static member works, but instantiating it does not.

If I do this I get all the traces:
(Document class)
package {
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.utils.describeType;
import flash.utils.getDefinitionByName;
import extremefx_comar.i18n.locales.EN_US;
public class Test extends Sprite {
public function Test():void {
trace(EN_US.test);
var n:String = "extremefx_comar.i18n.locales.EN_US";
var klass:Class = getDefinitionByName(n) as Class;
trace(klass);
try {
klass = Class(getDefinitionByName(n));
trace(describeType(klass));
} catch (e:Error){
trace("catch error:"+e);
}
if (klass != null){
trace(klass.test);
try {
var ca:Object = new klass();
trace(describeType(ca));
} catch (e2:Error){
trace("catch error2:"+e2);
}
}
}
}
}
not sure if this helps though...

Hi!,
I'm trying to do something pretty simple: dynamically instantiate a
class based on it's name:
var n:String = "extremefx_comar.i18n.locales.EN_US";
var klass:Class = null;
try {
klass = Class(getDefinitionByName(n));
trace(describeType(klass));
} catch (e:Error){
trace("catch error:"+e);
}
if (klass != null){
trace(klass.test);
try {
var ca:Object = new klass();
trace(describeType(ca));
} catch (e2:Error){
trace("catch error:"+e2);
}
}
The first trace works fine, no errors (so the describetype returns
the correct XML for that class). Now, when I try to instantiate that
class (var ca:Object = new klass()) i get the following error:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null
object reference.
Also, the klass has a public static var "test". The
trace(klass.test) returns undefined.
Ideas?
Thanks in advance,
