Too bad Flash docs do not mention which class is dynamic

At the top of the documentation page:
Seems like Cor's Array solution would make it through the compiler but would
still throw a runtime error, right? I would much more strongly recommend the
extending solution that Dave suggests.

extending
Here is the example:
1. create an new movieclip and put a rectangle in as background
2. on top (or higher layer) put a dynamic textfield, give it an instance
name of tf
3. give the movieclip in the library a linkage MyButton
4. paste this code in the first and only frame on the Main timeline!:
I forgot to mention what to do when testing:
Mouse over 2 or 3 buttons and then click one of them.
Notice in the trace the new custom property of every button is stored in the
array.
Kind regards,
Cor

About the array, that works fine!!
When you are into classes, that is preferable!

The array is just handling objects, so you lose the protection that having
known classes gives you.
There are occassions when having

Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] Adding a property to an AS3-component
Hello,
is it actually possible to add a new property
to an AS3-component, like button? I try:
import fl.controls.Button;
var button:Button = new Button();
button['old_item'] = 42;
//button.old_item = 42;
addChild(button);
but get the run-time error:
ReferenceError: Error #1056:
You can edit the components class.
But I always put my objects in arrays.
So you can do this:
var arrButtons:Array = [];
var button:Button = new Button();
arrButtons.push(button);
arrButtons[0].old_item = 42;
addChild(button);

In AS3, classes will only allow this if they're dynamic classes, and
most classes aren't dynamic. You could, however, write a new class to
extend Button.
