How do I handle click event in Spark List control in Flex 4

Question

I have a s:List component. I want to handle a click event to know what list item is selected. I don't see Click event in s:List. Any workarounds?

Thanks.

I figured how to do this. Thought I would share so that it helps others like me:

<s:List id="taskList" creationComplete="taskList.addEventListener('listClickEvent',handleListClick);" width="100%" height="80%" labelField="description" dataProvider="{todoList}" 
        useHandCursor="true">
    <s:itemRenderer>
        <fx:Component>
            <s:ItemRenderer click="handleClick(event)">
                <fx:Script>
                    <![CDATA[
                        import ListClickEvent;

                        import flash.events.MouseEvent;

                        import mx.controls.Alert;
                        private function handleClick(me:MouseEvent):void
                        {
                            var listClickEvent:ListClickEvent = new ListClickEvent("listClickEvent");
                            listClickEvent.index = itemIndex;
                            owner.dispatchEvent(listClickEvent);
                        }
                    ]]>
                </fx:Script>
                <s:Label text="{data.description}" top="5" bottom="5" right="3" left="3"/>
            </s:ItemRenderer>
        </fx:Component>
    </s:itemRenderer>
</s:List>
