Creates an event object that contains information about data events. Event objects are passed as parameters to event listeners.
Parameterstype:String —  The type of the event. Event listeners can access this information through the
	inherited type property. There is only one type of data event:
	DataEvent.DATA.
	 | |
bubbles:Boolean (default = false) — Determines whether the Event object participates in the bubbling phase of the
	event flow. Event listeners can access this information through the inherited
	bubbles property.
	 | |
cancelable:Boolean (default = false) — Determines whether the Event object can be canceled. Event listeners can
	access this information through the inherited cancelable property.
	 | |
data:String (default = "") — The raw data loaded into Flash Player or Adobe AIR. Event listeners can access this information
	through the data property.
