Ick. I totally forgot to initialize EventDispatcher. Constructor for
EventClass should be:
public function EventClass()
{
EventDispatcher.initialize(this);
}

You'll need a reference of the dispatching class in your listener class to
receive events:
// broadcasting class
import mx.events.EventDispatcher;
class EventClass
{
// EventDispatcher methods
public var addEventListener:Function;
public var removeEventListener:Function;
private var dispatchEvent:Function;
public function EventClass()
{
}
public function onInit():Void
{
trace('onInit fired!');
dispatchEvent({type: "onInit", target: this});
}
}
// listener class
import mx.utils.Delegate;
class ListenerClass
{
public function ListenerClass(eventClass:MyEventClass)
{
eventClass.addEventListener("onInit", Delegate.create(this,
onInitHandler));
}
private function onInitHandler(event:Object):Void
{
trace('onInitHandler invoked');
}
}
// implementation
var eventClass:EventClass = new EventClass();
var listenerClass:ListenerClass = new ListenerClass(eventClass);
eventClass.onInit();

Actually, I had been meaning to post again because I had lost my code
for getting EventDispatcher working between two classes. Someone posted
a response here and I lost it, as well as my code that was working. if
anyone can post again on how to get one class to dispatch a CUSTOM event
and get another CUSTOM class to listen to that event, please post!
Helmut and I would like to see an example. The help docs on
EventDispatcher are really awful, and I haven't seen a lot of stuff
online.
