The (xml source code) -> XML|XMLList stage in MXMLC isn't so good. Often I
need to embed XML as Binary objects, and go via String to parse it.
That's not much useful information though, so the answer to your problem is:
<mx:XMLList id="testXml">
<sample badattribute={"ABC"}>
<test name="1"/>
<test name="2"/>
</sample>
<mx:XMLList>
Note that despite the similar syntax I don't think these expressions are
updated when input changes the same way bindings are. They *might* be when
you're using .MXML, but the same syntax can be used to mix XML literals and
ActionScript expressions in .as files.
