What's the description of the error? Are you sure the controller has been instantiated? Olivier

I am trying to follow the 2.1 store as a model to understand the cairngorm structure and I am getting a constant error in trying to dispatch an event. I copied the example code almost exactly, but i get seen to get the even to fire. I don't know if the problem is in my FrontController or my event. Any help you can offer is much appreciated. Thank, Kevin ------------------- I have this in my main.mxml file private function loadGroupList() : void { CairngormEventDispatcher.getInstance().dispatchEvent( new CairngormEvent( GetGroupListEvent.EVENT_GET_GROUP_LIST ) ); } and then in my event file: import flash.events.Event; import com.adobe.cairngorm.control.CairngormEvent; public class GetGroupListEvent extends CairngormEvent { public static var EVENT_GET_GROUP_LIST : String = "getGroupList"; //public var position : int; /** * Constructor. */ public function GetGroupListEvent() { super( EVENT_GET_GROUP_LIST ); } /** * Override the inherited clone() method, but don't return any state. */ override public function clone() : Event { return new GetGroupListEvent(); } } and my controller: import com.adobe.cairngorm.control.FrontController; //import the command folder import com.onefoot.dbocl.command.* //import each event import com.onefoot.dbocl.event.GetGroupListEvent; /** * @version $Revision: $ */ public class DboclController extends FrontController { public function DboclController() { initialiseCommands(); } public function initialiseCommands() : void { addCommand( GetGroupListEvent.EVENT_GET_GROUP_LIST, GetGroupListCommand ); } } --------------------- An electronic message is not binding on its sender.
