Hi valdhor, Thanks for making a sample! I went back and looked at my code again and realized I was trying to catch an event that was being dispatched via a Popup inside the module!
Application: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"; layout="vertical" creationComplete="onCreationComplete()"> <mx:Script> <![CDATA[ import mx.events.ModuleEvent; import mx.modules.IModuleInfo; import mx.modules.ModuleManager; import mx.controls.Alert; private var modInfo:IModuleInfo; private var myModule:myMod; private function onCreationComplete():void { modInfo = ModuleManager.getModule('myMod.swf'); modInfo.addEventListener(ModuleEvent.READY, onModuleReady); modInfo.load(); } private function onModuleReady(event:ModuleEvent):void { myModule = modInfo.factory.create() as myMod; addChild(myModule); myModule.addEventListener('customEventDispatchedByModule', onEvent); } private function onEvent(event:Event):void { Alert.show(event.type, "Event Received!"); } ]]> </mx:Script> </mx:Application> MyMod.mxml: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <mx:Module xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"; layout="vertical" creationComplete="onCreate()"> <mx:Script> <![CDATA[ private var myPopUp:MyPopUp; private function onCreate():void { myPopUp = MyPopUp(PopUpManager.createPopUp(this,MyPopUp,true)); PopUpManager.centerPopUp(myPopUp); } ]]> </mx:Script> <mx:Button label="Dispatch Event" click="doDispatchEvent(event)"/> </mx:Module> my popup MyMod.mxml: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <mx:Panel xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"; layout="vertical"> <mx:Script> <![CDATA[ private function doDispatchEvent(event:MouseEvent):void { dispatchEvent(new Event('customEventDispatchedByModule',true)); } ]]> </mx:Script> <mx:Button label="Dispatch Event" click="doDispatchEvent(event)"/> </mx:Panel> --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, "valdhor" <valdhorli...@...> wrote: > > What are MyCustomMdoule (Spelling?) and moduleContent ? > > The following works for me: > > Application: > <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> > <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"; > layout="vertical" > creationComplete="onCreationComplete()"> > <mx:Script> > <![CDATA[ > import mx.events.ModuleEvent; > import mx.modules.IModuleInfo; > import mx.modules.ModuleManager; > import mx.controls.Alert; > > private var modInfo:IModuleInfo; > private var myModule:myMod; > > private function onCreationComplete():void > { > modInfo = ModuleManager.getModule('myMod.swf'); > modInfo.addEventListener(ModuleEvent.READY, > onModuleReady); > modInfo.load(); > } > > private function onModuleReady(event:ModuleEvent):void > { > myModule = modInfo.factory.create() as myMod; > addChild(myModule); > > myModule.addEventListener('customEventDispatchedByModule', onEvent); > } > > private function onEvent(event:Event):void > { > Alert.show(event.type, "Event Received!"); > } > ]]> > </mx:Script> > </mx:Application> > > MyMod.mxml: > <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> > <mx:Module xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"; layout="vertical"> > <mx:Script> > <![CDATA[ > private function doDispatchEvent(event:MouseEvent):void > { > dispatchEvent(new > Event('customEventDispatchedByModule',true)); > } > ]]> > </mx:Script> > <mx:Button label="Dispatch Event" click="doDispatchEvent(event)"/> > </mx:Module> > > > --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, "cuttenv" <cuttenv@> wrote: > > > > I have a rather straight forward question. > > I am creating a module like this: > > private var modInfo:IModuleInfo > > private var myModule:MyCustomMdoule; > > > > //In creation complete of application > > modInfo = ModuleManager.getModule('myMod.swf'); > > modInfo.addEventListener(ModuleEvent.READY, onModuleReady); > > modInfo.load(); > > > > //In tho onModuleReady command > > myModule = modInfo.factory.create() as MyCustomModule; > > moduleContent.addChild( myModule ); > > myModule.addEventListener( 'customEventDispatchedByModule', onEvent ); > > > > //Inside my module there is > > dispatchEvent( new Event('customEventDispatchedByModule',true) ); > > > > Even though the code for the dispatch event is running the handler > never runs... am I doing something wrong?? or do module not dispatch > events?? > > >
