I too use Cairngorm and would suggest it. Issue I have though is if your view, in Andrew's case his component, just needs to react to what another component did at the gesture/view level only. Since a Command is not supposed to talk to the view directly, and in this case needs too, I feel cornered in this case. What I have been starting to do is use standard flex Event and place dispatch and listen at systemManager level.

There are a lot of ways to do what you are asking personally I like to use Cairngorm since it provides a good model for handling this type of thing and provides a nice separation between my components. Otherwise one way would be to have your main application invoke methods within your components when it catches the events. in mainAppHandler... mycomponent2.handler(); --- In [email protected], "greenfishinwater" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I have an application: > > TabNavigator > mycomponent1 - Edit parameters > mycomponent2 - Display A > mycomponent3 - Display B > mycomponent4 - Display C > > When I have changed some parameters in mycomponent1 I want to fire an > event in mycomponent1, and then in mycomponent2 to mycomponent4 listen > for that event and then do local processing within that specific > component. > > I can fire the event in mycomponent1, and I can successfully listen > for it in the main app. But I am having problems setting up event > listeners in mycomponent2 to mycomponent4. > > Can anybody help? > > Andrew > -- Flexcoders Mailing List FAQ: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/files/flexcodersFAQ.txt Search Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com Yahoo!
