Why does this code trace 'undefined'?

this.createEmptyMovieClip("myLoader",1);
trace(this.myLoader);

this too?

this.createEmptyMovieClip("myLoader",1);
trace(this["myLoader"]);

(when the code is in the constructor of a class which extends MovieClip)


But this code traces _level0.myLoader (code placed on main timeline)

this.createEmptyMovieClip("myLoader",1);
trace(this.myLoader);
