Loaderinfo in flex application for the compnents

Hi all
So I am at a point where i can not obtain the loaderInfo for the life of me.

My application is a little complex however.
<local:ApplicationMain xmlns:mx=“http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml
xmlns:local="*"
creationComplete="{infoIn()}"

then in the ApplicationMAin.as I want to obtain the loaderinfo and pass it around the application components user getters and setters.

how ever when ever I try to get it i get null.

Not good as I am trying to load a facebook application as a component, where it needs the loaderInfo to work correctly.

If anyone can help would be very appriciative.
