You can hook into the creation of Flex 4 item renderers easily enough (through itemRenderer, or itemRendererFunction) allowing you to pull renderers from a custom object pool, but how would you put those renderers back into the pool? I understand that layout virtualization does a form of object pooling, but I'd like a way to hook in to ...

The game has about 9k LOC spread across 150 classes, most of the classes are for data models, state handling and level generation all of which should be easy to port. However, the thought of rejiggering the syntax by hand across all these files is none too appealing. A...
