FeatureLayer with Labels

Question

I'm needing to label features in a FeatureLayer and I want to avoid having a seperate DynamicMapServiceLayer which contains the labels.

One approach I have considered is to extend the FeatureLayer to create a LabelledFeatureLayer class and alter the behaviour of the refresh (?) method.

Has anyone tried something similar to this or does anyone have any better suggestions?

1 - when i import mx.controls.Alert; it says the import Alert could not be found

Try it : www.adobe.com...

2 - is it possible to label the feature layer (in the mxml) without performing a query?

I think: Yes. I have not found any query maker/caller in this sample.
