Yes, assuming that myFavoriteClass is actually linked into your
app. You can use the getDefinitionByName() to look up a class by
name, and the 'new' operator to create an instance of it. I think
the code would be
import flash.utils.getDefinitionByName;
function instantiateClass(className:String):Object
{
var myClass:Class = Class(getDefinitionByName(className));
return new myClass();
}

Subject: [flexcoders] Dynamic Instance of Class & Data Typing
Is there a way to create new instances of a class dynamically at
runtime:
var someClass = "myFavoriteClass";
function instantiateClass(someClass){
var event: [someClass] = new [someClass] ();
}
Thanks,
Kevin
