  You lost me.. I think either I need you to give me a concrete example or

I need to better describe what I want to do.

I have a java application that generates AS3 classes from an XML Schema
source. Here is a simple example of one of those classes:

public class Angle {

public var activeaudioangle:String;

public var activevideoangle:String;

public var clip:com.decoursey.xmeml.Clip;

public function Angle() {
}



}

What I'd like to do is add metadata to properties(or to the class), for
example:

public class Angle {

[XBElementSource(name="AAA")]
public var activeaudioangle:String;

[XBElementSource(name="AVA")]
public var activevideoangle:String;

public var clip:com.decoursey.xmeml.Clip;

public function Angle() {
}



}

And then at runtime I'd like to inspect the metadata, or even have the
compiler generate some extra code based on the metadata. How do I do
that? Can I do that?
