most of my controls have a property $typeof which is accessable by using the instance._typeof property call. however; i am curious if i can change the actual return value of typeof()
so instead of typeof(obj) == "movieclip" it would be typeof(obj)=="com.echo.something";
also, is there any programatic way of asking a MC what it's "Export Indentifier" is? if i could to that then the $typeof property could update itself, that would be nice.

There's nothing that will automatically do that for you. You would have to store that as a property of your classes (which is how the V2 component architecture handles it)
yes, that's what i am doing already. i was just thinking/hoping there was some hidden feature (like ASSetPropFlag) that isn't documented but there for the using.
thanks

typeof is an operator so you can't change what it returns as far as I know. Look into the instanceof operator.
no, instance of will only give me back the classConstructor which means i would have to ask it spacific object types.
i was really hoping for something that would tell me exactly what the class line says
e.g.
class Com.Controls.ComboBox extends MovieClip {...}
trace(linkid(d)); // Com.Controls.ComboBox
