Yes, and the "dynamic" part is not inherited from the parent object.

To enumerate the declared properties of your custom class, I believe you need to use the describeType() or getClassInfo() methods. See 'performing object introspection' in the docs for details on this.

I want to be able to do the second option as the properties on the Class will be changed and added to, i would lke to refer to them dynamically... Cheers, David
