The first link seems to be an alternative method that I was looking for and
might work for me. I appreciate the insight.

Thanks!

functions that need to be called in responder.result once your results have been
received. The functions that need to be executed are typically based in the mxml
component that dispatched the original event. How I have been handling it, is to
have a reference to the function included in the VO payload that is dispatched
to the command/delegate I then pass a reference to the function in an
asynctoken which will be called once the results are received in
responder.result. This works fine for me. However, I am curious to know if it
is the best method in keeping in line with the mvc/cairngorm pattern. I suppose
I could store a reference to the function in the model? I also could set up a
next event sequence in the command class but this seemed like more work than
necessary.
