Cannot Convert to ClassFactory

Question

I have this item renderer MyRenderer.mxml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:HBox xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" implements="mx.core.IDataRenderer" >
    <mx:Script>
     <![CDATA[
     [Bindable]
      public var greylist : XML;

      public function newInstance() : * {
       return new MyRenderer();
      }
     ]]>
    </mx:Script>
</mx:HBox>

and try to append the item renderer to my datagridcolumn by a classfactory

myRenderer = ClassFactory(MyRenderer);
myRenderer.properties = { greylist: this.greylist };

Now when debugging I get the error that MyRenderer cannot be converted into classfactory.

Can someone please help me?

Thanks in advance

Sebastian

Try this instead:

myRenderer = new ClassFactory(MyRenderer);
