I was looking into this, because I wanted to do some IoC work in Flex. I found one issue, I don't have any reference for getClassByName adn cannot compile when trying to use it. Was it removed? what's the deal there?
Anyway, one solution I had thought of was to use a ObjectFactory of sorts. Then you pass in an array of arguments to a getInstance function and it would use the correct call based on the length of the array. It would be more code but it would be hidden away in a factory class. If you need an example let me know.
