In AS3 you can use [ and ] to accomplish that:

c["validate" + commandName]();

or:

methodReference = c["validate" + commandName];
methodReference();

or:

methodReference.apply(null, []);

or:

methodReference.call(null);

Hello,

How can I accomplish in AS the java equivalent of below? I want to dynamically invoke a method:

Class c = IncidentRules.class;
Class[] parameterTypes = null;
Method methodName;

methodName = c.getMethod(“validate”+commandName,parameterTypes);
methodName.setAccessible(true);
methodName.invoke(this,null);

Hi, How far did you get with your mock testing framework? I am playing with the idea of implementing a mock object framework in AS3.

Hello. Could you give a hint of library reflection. I.e. how can I programmatically find out which classes are included in SWC or application. I’d like to have a list of classes like ["com.example.flex:MyClass", "com.example.flex:MyClass2", ...]
Thank you for ideas!
