"If the value parameter is an instance of a type, the returned XML object
includes all the instance properties of that type, but does not include any
static properties"
"The instance properties are nested inside a tag named <factory> to
distinguish them from the static properties." - So Static properties live
outside it ;)
Just learning this myself. Maybe that was the issue. My suggestion of
.content property is an instance of the class. Try using your var
AssetLibrary:Class; as the parameter for describeType().
If it still doesn't show up, you should seriously question whether the
method was compiled. First though, try workarounds to call the method such
as Keith's or Juan's suggestion or casting the content as a dynamic object
and calling the method.
var AssetLibrary:Object LoaderInfo(pEvent.target).content;
try {
AssetLibrary.initAssets(); //<--the error is here
} catch (e:ArgumentError) {
trace (e);
}
just more thoughts. hope it helps...
