I have an AS3 Object: {p1:"..", p2:".."} I want con create another object that contains the first one in a property whose name is defined by a variable:

var propertyName:String = "myName";
var myObj = new Object();
myObj.something_that_creates_a_property_named_as_propertyName({p1:"..", p2:".."})

does it make any sense?

var propertyName:String = "myName";
var myObj = new Object();
myObj[propertyName] = {p1:"..", p2:".."};
