Would be really easy to find out by adding two identical event listeners to
a button. I'd expect it to be called twice.

Subject: [Flashcoders] Is it possible to create duplicate event listeners?
Hi all,
I'm curious if I need to clean up my event listeners before adding a
duplicate one.
For example if I have an initialization routine
function init():void {
addEventListener( Event.SomeEvent, $somehandler, false, 0, true );
// some other stuff that builds the app/game
}
If I finish up what I'm doing and want to re-initialize my game or
application, should I clean up my event listener before I add the exact
same one?
So another way to ask this is if I do:
addEventListener( Event.SomeEvent, $somehandler, false, 0, true );
addEventListener( Event.SomeEvent, $somehandler, false, 0, true );
Do I have 2 event listeners at this point, or just one? Is it smart
enough to not add an identical one?
thanks!
ben
