Might be interesting to know why you need to do this at all.
I'm using an XML document to create a file. Without going into
details, each node of the XML is to be turned into an
object, based on the kind of node.
So for example:
xmlitem type='Big' size='3' /item

Hello Danny,
This short snippet should return you the constructor:

Eg:
I have class MyBigClass
the string className contains the text Big
I want to do something like
obj:Object = new(My + className + Class)()

Hi Danny,
An import statement is just a compiler-friendly shortcut. It has no
effect whatsoever on the final code.
Saying:
import com.pkg.fred.Bucket;
// later
var bucket:Bucket=new Bucket();
is identical to saying just:
var bucket:com.pkg.fred.Bucket=new com.pkg.fred.Bucket();
That's all

I'm still not entirely sure what import actually
*does* :)
It tells flash where the class definitions can be found and distinguishes
between classes of the same name, but different

Hi,
new eval(_global.mypackage.MyClass) does the trick as well I believe.

That's all it is. A convent bit of syntactic sugar. It's exactly the

Um... _convenient_, obviously. Although that does conjure up some
wacky images...

You seem to be in a mega hurry Danny!

You know, it occurs to me that import is an astonishingly bad name for this
statement. Poorly

Most of the time, what I've seen is setting a temporary var to either an
instance of the class, or in the case of a static class, setting it to a
reference to the class.
var myClass:MyClass = new com.client.project.package.MyClass();
or
var myClass:MyClass = com.client.project.package.MyClass;
