This has various limitations. For example, it won't work on a DisplayObject because they don't serialize everything required to recreate them.

Peter posted a neat approach here:  http://www.peterjoel.com/blog/index.php?archive=2006_02_01_archive.xml#114064012876401732



  package com.peterjoel.util {



    import
flash.util.ByteArray;{



    public function
cloneObject(o:Object):Object{

       var
bytes:ByteArray = new ByteArray();

       bytes.writeObject(o);

       bytes.position
= 0;

       return
bytes.readObject();

    }

  }
