Hi all,

I was using AS3 projects in Flex for a year and started playing with Flex recently.

I am not infront of a Dec PC but i was wondering if someone can confirm this correct?

If i make an actionscript class called MyClass.

class MyClass  
{  
public var justaproperty:int = 0;

public function MyClass()  
{  
trace(“a new class was created”);  
}  
}

Does that mean that i can automatically use a flex component like this or is there more to it?

\<local:MyClass id=“myClass” justaproperty=“15” /\>

Thanks.
