Oh really?  I don't know Flex so well -- I'll investigate.

Generating an ActionScript class for each complex-type defined by the
XMLSchema is the basic thing I'd like, so that compiler type checking
can catch problems when the schema changes.  Automatic marshaling would
also be nice :)

In Java, I've used Castor's source-generator (among other things) to do
this sort of thing, and the technique is a big help when dealing with an
evloving schema.
