They don't, I have to convert Array to Vector.
Actionscript's Vector is not perfect, element type has no inheritance,
Vector.<Sprite> is Vector.<DisplayObject> will return false. and if a
function accept parameter type Vector.<Sprite> won't accept
Vector.<DisplayObject>.
So I think your @Vector should assign a type for each element, so that
client can use directly.
thanks.
