Parent swf import your CustomEvent class, and child import CustomEvent class. When the two swf create a new istance of CustomEvent to dispatch Event, the CustomEvent class for the parent swf is not the CustomEvent class of the Child... even those look the same. when the parent swf load the child, parent must load child CustomEvent class definition inside the loader.loaderinfo.getDefinition(CustomEvent class) , so the parent swf will dispatch custom event of the REAL CustomEvent class of the child. you have 2 swf. parent swf and child swf.
