Learning Employee Directory 5.2 event clone

ED’s custom events don’t override the clone() method: it doesn’t need because the events are never redispatched. When I test one of my applications I kept getting the following error:
Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert flash.events::Event@141cb29 to org.mymvc.MyMVCEvent
It took me quite a while to debug and finally I have to google it. It seems I am not the only one who has the same problem. The trick here is you will have to override the clone() method in your custom events.
