Adobe Flex delayed observer for auto-complete TextInput

Does anyone know if there is a Flex 3 or Flex 4 equivalent to the JQuery DelayedObserver?

If not, how could we go about implementing开发者_运维问答 it in Flex?

I'm not sure what the component does exactly and I couldn't find an actual running sample anywhere via Google. If you're looking to delay a call you can use a Timer or CallLater.

If you're looking for an AutoComplete component, I am prone to recommend my own AutoComplete Component. The Flex 4 / Spark version is available free, although does not have the API breadth that the Flex 3 MX version does.
