The Player's EventDispatcher class doesn't provide this capability, probably because it isn't part of the Document Object Model Level 3 Events Specification. (The Player obviously keeps a list of listeners, but this is done in C++ code and the list isn't exposed in ActionScript.) However, I suppose the framework could accomplish what you want by overriding addEventListener() and removeEventListener() in every subclass of EventDispatcher to keep track of the listeners.

Sometimes it would be really nice be able to access a list of currently attached listeners by doing something like myButton.listeners. Having that return a collection of objects that expose the event type and handler method would be nice and it doesn't seem like it would be that hard to implement since they're obviously already kept track of somewhere. Does anybody else wish this was provided? Does anyone from Adobe have info on why its not and/or if it might be someday? Thanks, Ben
