Just like how things worked in Flash, you can't just cast a random `var
obj:Object = {}` to a class. It needs to be a real instance of that class.
The basic rule to keep in mind is this: You can use `as CustomVO` with
something that was created with `new CustomVO()`. For any other type, an as
cast returns null.-- Josh Tynjala Bowler Hat LLC <https://bowlerhat.dev> On Tue, Apr 20, 2021 at 4:24 PM gbarbosa <gbarbosa...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Royale, > > I was recently trying to cast an Object > > obj as CustomVO > > but it would always turn to null.
