setStyle() is for users of your component. Never call setStyle() on
yourself, unless you don't want the following to work:
.myStyle {
dropShadowEnabled: true;
}
<BobComponent styleName="myStyle" />
In this case, if you've called setStyle() on yourself, the user's
setting will not be honoured (because setStyle() has higher
precedence).
The right way to set a default style is using a type selector:
// CSS file bundled with your component
BobComponent {
dropShadowEnabled: false;
}

Try calling trace() to see if your method's being called. If you have
trace() disabled, just throw an exception.
throw new Error(); // just to check if this actually gets thrown
