I’d like to ask if there’s any way to do the following:

I have a document class called Application. Inside it i create a TestObject

this.test = new TestObject();

suppose the TestObject initializes and it needs to fetch some values from Application.

can i do that without

1. passing the values to the class when creating the instance (eg: this.test = new TestObject(this.requiredValue); )

or

1. waiting for ‘test’ to be added to the stage (with an event listener)

please let me know what you think,
