Well, I just found out that as3commons-bytecode actually has some bugs when it comes down to generating interfaces :) I'll have to fix them first before I can tell you if its an AVM or compiler issue. But your points remains fair, I guess its normal that an interface only declares public members. I'm trying to think of a language that supports otherwise, but I can't think of any from the top of my head... Roland
