Description

var child:XML = <pop><child name="Sam"/></pop>;
xml1.appendChild(child);
child = <pop><child name="George"/></pop>;
xml1.appendChild(child);

compiles into:
var /** @type

{XML}

*/ child = new XML( '<pop><child name="Sam"/></pop>') ;
xml1.appendChild(child);
child = '<pop><child name="George"/></pop>';
xml1.appendChild(child);
