Cannot subclass CCSprite without generating error.

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Create a subclass of CCSprite for example 'MySprite'. 
Now add 'MySprite.sprite('texture.png')'.
You get the error Type mismatch: cannot convert from CCSprite to MySprite.

adding a static method 'sprite' to my subclassed CCSprite class fixed this 
issue, thanks for your help zhouweikuan.

Try to add "public" in front of sprite inte CCSprite class.

All properties/variables that are used and you want to subclass should be 
protected or public. If variables have so called default scope like

CCSprite sprite;

then it will not be seen/accessible in subclass (class that extends that 
class). Therefore if you have class that can be extended by users then make all 
variables at least protected.

Also in Android it takes more time to call a method then to access variable 
directly. Add public to variables so that we can access them without 
getPropertyName() or setPropertyName(parameter)

Best of all is to remove this obj-c style creation and use constructors 
directly.
