Howdy!
Does anybody know if there is possible to store an object in an array? I have this class that I call Person and when I create an instance of that class, like:
[color=navy]var p:Person = new Person(“Josef”);[/color]
I would like to store it in an array. Is that possible? And if the answer is yes, how?

Yes it is possible , try this
var db:Array = []
var person = new Person(“Josef”);
db.push(person)

Well, I’ve tried that and it does work. But! What dosn’t seem to work is the question of how I can retrive that stored objekt later on.

…I’m sorry but that doesn’t seem to work. Let’s say that the class Person har a method called getAge();
Normaly I would do something like this to retrive its stored data:
var numAge:Number = db[index].getAge();
But in this case it does not work.
