trying to get function signature
Raw
gistfile1.as
protected function listenerValid(listener:Function):Boolean
{
var scope:Array = getLexicalScopes(listener);
var scopeXML:XML = flash.utils.describeType(scope[0]);
// No clue on how to get the "name" of the function passed. I had to use a hard coded string of "hearSignal" for this test
var functionDescriptionXML:XML = scopeXML.factory.method.(@name == "hearSignal")[0];
var params:XMLList = functionDescriptionXML..parameter;
}

if the Function-instance is from a public property or mehtod af an instance you have access to, I think you could iterate over the list of methods/properties and test if
listener == instance[method.@name](This could maybe work without reflection, if the method is a public and enumerable property of the class.)
I don't think the is another option other then using bytecode-based reflection...
