Slightly complicated and not terribly important but annoying: It's possible for a class to compile while self-referring:
class Clarss { var pParent:Clarss; function Clarss(tParent:Clarss) { if (tParent != undefined) { pParent = tParent; } } } This compiles fine. But with inheritance this no longer works: class Clarss { var pRoot:Clarss2 function Clarss() { } } class Clarss2 extends Clarss { function Clarss2() { } } Now the compiler gets confused by the circular reference and tells me "**Error** C:\...Clarss.as: Line 1: The name of this class, 'Clarss', conflicts with the name of another class that was loaded, 'Clarss'." It's a shame: My object structure has a bunch of objects in a tree structure, all of which inherit the same base class. I'd like them all to have a reference to the top-level node object, but I have to refer to it as an Object instead of its actual class name because otherwise it can't compile.
