Subject: [flexcoders] instanceof on Object


I have some VO's, and I use their class type to render a form.  My Dialogue
I'm passing this VO into is bound to an object, like so:

private var formData:Object;

<mx:TextInput text="{formData.label}" />

When I call this method externally:

myDialogue.setFormData(someVO);

Function looks something like this:

function setFormData(o)
{
   for(var p in o)
   {
       formData[p] = o[p];
   }
}

My bindings work great.  However, instanceof does not.  If I do this:

formData = o;

It DOES work; naturally because it's just a reference.  However, this
dialogue works like a preferences.  As such, I need to create my own local
copy; the above for loop is actually more involved since I need a deep copy,
and thus get a true, deep copy, not a reference.

However, this in turn breaks my instanceof code.  I've tried:

formData.__proto__ = o.prototype
formData.__proto__ = o.__proto__

...none of which work.  Frankly, I really don't care formData is truly a
sub-class, I just want my instanceof to work, even if it's taked.

???
