I don't think that is what's happening, when i use "if (i is B)" the
condition does work, it enters the if block but it resets the C object.

I tried a new thing, on B i changed the myC declaration

public var myC:Object; // Object instead of C

By doing this i can use if (i is B) and now it doesn't reset the
values of myC, but the problem is that if i try the following:

if (i.myC is C)

this gives me false :(


Any ideas?
