dynamic and final.
Note that information about an object cannot be retrieved by calling the
Type constructor. Instead use one of the following static
methods:
In case of an instance:
var type:Type = Type.forInstance(myInstance);
In case of a Class variable:
var type:Type = Type.forClass(MyClass);
In case of a classname:
var type:Type = Type.forName("MyClass");
