I'm still not certain what you are attempting to accomplish, but the
dispatchEvent method of the ComboBox will dispatch any event you want.
>From my understanding of your example, the following TextInput change
event handler will dispatch a change event for the ComboBox that is
extended to include the dispatchChangeEvent method defined next. I
seriously do not recommend this this implementation unless it is truly
required for your design.
// The following method handles the change event of the TextInput
private function textInput_changeHandler( event:Event ):void
{
comboBox.dispatchChangeEvent();
}
// The following would be defined in a class that extends ComboBox
public function dispatchChangeEvent():void
{
dispatchEvent( new ListEvent( ListEvent.CHANGE ) );
}
