Because decoratorInstance is typed as Object, which is dynamic.
You shouldn't be calling methods on the parent anyway, but just dispatch an
event to which the parent (or whoever is interested)
listens.
// not tested so might be some errors in there
import mx.utils.Delegate;
import mx.events.EventDispatcher;
class MenuItem extends MovieClip() {
// initialize eventdispatcher - mixin
private static var dispatcherInit =
EventDispatcher.initialize(MenuItem.prototype);
// define eventdispatcher mixin methods
public var dispatchEvent:Function;
public var addEventListener:Function;
public var removeEventListener:Function;
private var some_mc:MovieClip;
public function MenuItem() {
this.init();
}
private function init():Void {
this.some_mc.onRelease = Delegate.create(this, this.mcReleaseHandler);
}
private function mcReleaseHandler():Void {
this.dispatchEvent({type:"click"});
}
}
import mx.utils.Delegate;
class Menu extends MovieClip
private var menuItem:MenuItem;
public function Menu() {
this.init();
}
private function init():Void {
this.createChildren();
}
private function createChildren():Void {
var mc:MovieClip = this.attachMovie("MenuItem", "menuItem",
this.getNextHighestDepth());
mc.addEventListener("click", Delegate.create(this,
this.menuItemClickHandler));
}
private function menuItemClickHandler(o:Object):Void {
trace("target: "+o.target);
}
}
