Justin Mclean resolved FLEX-22502.
----------------------------------

    Resolution: Fixed

Change code to dispatch change event so better to listen for this. Value commit event still occurs 3 times. Checked into develop branch.

>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLEX-22502
>             Project: Apache Flex
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: mx: DateField
>    Affects Versions: Adobe Flex SDK 3.4 (Release)
>         Environment: Affected OS(s): All OS Platforms
> Affected OS(s): All OS Platforms
> Browser: Firefox 3.x
> Language Found: English
>            Reporter: Adobe JIRA

> Steps to reproduce:
> 1. Create DateField component
> 2. Set "editable" property of DateField component to "true"
> 3. Add a DateValidator for the "text" property of the DateField component, triggering on the valueCommit of the DateField.
>  
>  Actual Results:
>  The "invalid" event of the DateValidator is fired 3 times whenever the DateField loses focus when an invalid date has been entered.
>  
>  Expected Results:
> The "invalid" event only fires once when losing focus on the DateField.
>  
>  
>  Workaround (if any):
> N/A
>  
> Research:
> This seems to be caused by the fact that the DateField component is actually a descendant of ComboBase, and implements a TextInput.  When focus is lost, the focusOut event occurs at each level (DateField, ComboBase, and TextInput), which in turn ends up firing a valueCommit event for each of those levels.  Therefore a DateValidator is triggered 3 times for an invalid date.
