Re: [flexcoders] Dynamic Instance of Class & Data Typing

[Kevin]

hmm... is there a reason that this would not work on a method that is  
added dynamically (in the RemoteObjectClass)?  Specifically, here is  
what I am trying to accomplish.

private var service:RemoteObject;
public var method:String;
this.service = ServiceLocator.getInstance().getRemoteObject 
("addUsersService");
method = "addUser";
var call : Object = service.[this.method]( params );


Thanks,

by the same token how would I call a method dynamically.


newClass[someMethodName](someParam);

I tried the above with no luck.

thanks, Kevin

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();
}

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,
