You create instances of a class you've defined using the new
operator, in the same way you create instances of built-in ActionScript objects, like the MovieClip or XML object. In order to use a class you've defined, the following must be true:
// In pkg1/myclass.as class pkg1.myclass { ... }
For more information about classpath folders and packages, see "About classpath folders" on page 142.
Classes are imported as they are referenced by the compiler, so that if the code being compiled references a class that hasn't been defined yet, that class will be found and compiled first.
