Flex 3 : Dispatching an event

[Ravi Kiran V]

Hi
I am trying to Dispatch an event here .

My requirement is that , on mouseover event of a Button , i am trying to generate a event of type Mouse click and call a function .

<mx:Button  id="myBtn"  label="Register"  mouseOver="handleMouseOver(event)"/>

public function handleMouseOver(event:MouseEvent):void
{
var myEvent:MouseEvent = new MouseEvent(MouseEvent.CLICK);
myBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,handleClick);			 
myBtn.dispatchEvent(myEvent);
}

public function handleClick(event:MouseEvent):void
{		
Alert.show("Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii");				
}

This is my own written code and i dont like this way as you can see from the above code that i am using MouseEvent.CLICK number of times .

Please tell me how can this function handleMouseOver can be improved

MouseEvent subclasses Event. Why not just write one event handling function that handles events and add it as the event listener for both mouse over and click events? That would save you having to reregister your click event handler and redispatch a mouse click event.
