I don't know if Cairgorm is anything like PureMVC but if you have a
reference to the UIComponent that you want to dispatch the event, you
would so something like this:
MXML:
<MyComponent>
<mx:Metadata>
[Event(name="rowSelected", type="mx.events.DynamicEvent")]
</mx:Metadata>
</MyComponent>
Then, in AS:
var myComponent:MyComponent;
myComponent.dispatchEvent("rowSelected");
Then again, I could be completely misconstruing what you're trying to
do. :)
