Well, one of the things that I like about 3.0 is the
library class. It really makes things much easier. The
dependency feature can be used as shown below:

this.add('dynapi.gui.DynButton','dynbutton.js','DynLayer');
this.add('dynapi.gui.ScrollBar','scrollbar.js','DynButton');

With the above DynButton will be automatically loaded
whenever ScrollBar is included:

dynapi.include('ScrollBar');

No need to include DynButton as ScrollBar is dependent
on DynButton. Now that's what I call cool!
