[Flashcoders] RE: one class listening for another classes dispatched event
Wanted to add my input to this one. Firstly, I agree tight coupling is not good practice in regards to architecting an application. However, where event mechanics are concerned, it's impact can be slightly negated by using weak listeners - which are good practice in general. Secondly, I haven't thought this through, but I'm throwing it out there anyway. Maybe a static EventManager class somewhere in your root/main application class, that uses custom events could be worth investigation. Actually, I'm all over this at the moment, as finding a generic solution for an application's event mechanics is the piece of the puzzle I'm currently up to.

[Flashcoders] RE: Who uses Adobe Flex
I'm currently using Flash Builder 4 Beta 2 and I'm happy with it. Once you get your head around using SWC libs, modifying compiler settings, template files, modules, the advanced debugging, profiling, etc (all of which I'm loving and still learning) you can take an advanced look at developing sophisticated applications, but still with the flash 'coolness' factor. Looking forward to soon phasing out the confusion around what 'Flex' is. Just onwards and upwards with the Adobe Flash Platform - and the future is looking good. __ Win 1 of 4 Sony home entertainment packs thanks to Yahoo!7.

[Flashcoders] RE: Inheritance and Static properties
Helmut, Grant Skinner link below might help you with your event framework. http://www.gskinner.com/blog/archives/2007/07/building_a_stat_1.htm And you can access public static constants anywhere in your application as long as you import the class? Are you saying this is not true? __ Get more done like never before with Yahoo!7 Mail.
