Ok dear i chanaged MyEvent Class with this
public class MyEvent extends Event
{
public static var MY_EVENT:String = "MY_EVENT" ;
public function MyEvent()
{
super ( MY_EVENT , true );
}
}
but what about " dispatchEvent( new MyEvent(), true ); "
dispatchEvent does not accept second argument , it only accepts one argument of
Type Event
