Thank you, that was very helpful.
As a follow on question: if you dispatch an event in a Cairngorm app like so:
CairngormEventDispatcher.getInstance().dispatchEvent( new CairngormEvent(
AppController.GET_WORK_ITEMS_EVENT ) );
I haven't created my own custom event, does Cairngorm take care of the override
or do I really need to create a custom event class for every type of event?
