I tried this:

Const TEST:MyTYPE=New MyTYPE

I get errors that looks like: constant initialiser must be constant

Im guessing ill have to make it global then :o

If you made a CONST type, you would not be able to change any of its variables. What would be the point? You might as well just have Consts and Functions.

If it was allowed, I guess the logical meaning would be to have the *reference* to be constant, not the actual object. So there would be a point.
