Apache Royale : addEventListener / removeEventListener best practice

Question

In Flex, the best practice when using a addEventListener was to call removeEventListener to avoid memory leak and/or event to be called twice if component could be created many times (like popups)

So addEventListener was mainly used in addedToStage event function and removeEventListener was in removedFromStage event function

What is the best practice for Apache Royale ?

It seem that addEventListener should be in a initComplete event. But as Apache Royale component life cycle is not very clear for me, does I need to take care of calling removeEventListener, and if yes when (with a specific event ?) ?

I think the same applies like in Flex. But you just should be care of remove listeners when you create components and can be removed eventually. Like in Flex if the object instance will be created just one time and is permanent through the session, you don't need to worry about it.
