Re: [flexcoders] flex newbie - dispatchEvent question

Out of curiosity, try changing:

Application.application.addEventListener("test", onTestEvent);

to:

this.addEventListener("test", onTestEvent);

Subject: [flexcoders] flex newbie - dispatchEvent question


Hi!

I have to mention first that I'm new in Flex.
I have started to develop a small application using Cairngorm, just to
get more into it.
But I have faced  a problem,  my Command is never executed. It seams the
Event I'm sending is lost somewhere.
So I made a small test (to see if I'm getting the whole dispatchEvent
thing):
Below is my code. The onTestEvent() is never called.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks

Andi
