You can write either
MyClass.foo = bar;
or
MyClass["foo"] = bar;
to set a static property of a class.

OK, this sort of makes sense...but... I don't want to create a
special class for every place I want to do this. So I thought "I
know, I'll just use a generic object and check to see what properties
it has."
So I am using something like:
for (s:string in paramObj) {
this[s]=paramObj[s];
}
Just one problem...it's a static method. Anyone know the equivalent
syntax to this['thing'] that will work in a static method?
Thanks;
