An option for those using the creationComplete() method of an Application or component in Flex, is to use the MXML component equivalent mx:creationComplete

Use the event object within the component along with currentTarget to set / get parameters from the current component.
An example click event to change the visibility of a component from within itself would be:
click=”event.currentTarget.visible=false;”
Enjoy.
