I've read Amy's FAQ (Q3) and the Flex 3 Cookbook and have attempted to make the situation below work, but the solution still escapes me. After reading several other resources, I think I've read too many ways to skin a cat and now I'm in circles.
I have an ArrayCollection (currentAC) in a main application file in AIR. (When the user clicks on categories it updates that array with a selected arrayCollection.) I have a custom item renderer for a list in the main application file. When someone clicks an item in the list, it seems that scoping within the item renderer using either: Application.application.currentAC = this.itemRenderersAC; would work to update the currentAC array, and as well it seems that parentDocument.currentAC = this.itemRenderersAC; would work too, but I can't make that tightly coupled situation work for some reason. So... I move on to the proper, loosely coupled approach with little success as well. No errors, but no currentAC update. I tried to dispatchEvent from the itemRenderer and have it be handled by...anything, and I'm just not getting the syntax or something, and nothing needs to even be "passed" around, I just need to update an array with the itemRenderer's Array that has a known array name. I'm tired or dumb, or I could be both.
