Subject: [flexcoders] Re: Cast
Object Name from string then do object.function() - is it possible?
Since Flex' compiler thinks
objectA is just a vanilla Object, it
complains that bar() is an unknown method. That
was why i needed to
cast the real object to ObjectA. So how do I get
this to work without
importing every one of the hundred mxml files that
could get passed in?
