Perhaps you could create a classFactory and set the property on that
dynamically, then use the classFactory's newInstance method to get your
instance.

That is not exactly what I have. Yes, I too have an mxml class based on
another AS class. But I am creating an instance of my mxml class like this:
var newMyClass:MyClass = new MyClass();
So, how can I pass a value for myProperty to newMyClass? My understanding
as soon as var newMyClass:MyClass = new MyClass(); executes all children on
newMyClass will be created but I need to have myProperty before that.

Subject: Send parameter to mxml constructor
I have an mxml class called Obj1. Somewhere in my code I do:
var _obj1 = new Obj1();
What I need is to provide some variable to Obj1 for its
initialization. A
reason for that is because Obj1 has children that need that variable
for
their initialization.
But because I cannot send a parameter to Obj1's constructor I dont know
how
to solve my problem.
Any idea?
Thanks
