exactly my point, same as Scala does for the JVM (see my previous post) I think I saw some JIRA issues in the Adobe JIRA some time ago where folks talked about how they enhanced the mxmlc / asc compilers to evaluate metadata at pre-compile time to emit code. The same could happen with custom language additions. Dirk.
