@Steven The AIR example has one way to do this. Since AIR has no native events on when Windows are created, you basically have to manually create Mediator’s for the Window’s if you so choose. Example code here:

Inspirational post, I’m looking forward to getting some RL questions answered at 360|Flex and meeting everyone. I’m calling Joel out (lol), I emailed him in January and didn’t get a response to this question… How is dynamic mediator registration handled in RL?

It was great to meet you guys in ATL!
Actionscript + Python Rocks

Clarification of terms:

Python is a strongly typed and dynamic language.

In Python a variable can hold an object of any type (dynamic), and objects cannot be cast to other types (strong).

Actionscript is exactly the opposite: loosely typed and static.

In Actionscript a variable can only hold an object of the defined type (static), and objects can be cast to other types (loose).
