Description

Take the following code:
import org.apache.flex.events.Event;
public class DataEvent extends Event
{
public function DataEvent(type:String)

{ super(type); }

public var xmlData:XML;
}
and somewhere else:
var xml:XML = <foo/>;
var ev:DataEvent = new DataEvent("Data");
ev.xmlData = xml;

The will compile to:
ev.setChild('xmlData', xml);

It appears that it's treating the class as XML although it's just an XML property in an unrelated class.
