Error CS7112: The type `String' does not contain a constructor that takes non-scalar arguments (CS7112)

Example valid AS code:

var array:Array = new Array("1", "2", "3");
var i:int = 0;
var line:String = new String( array[i] );

Where found: AGALMiniAssembler.as

Workaround:

var array:Array = new Array("1", "2", "3");
var i:int = 0;
//var line:String = new String( array[i] );
var line:String = array[i] as String;
