View 2 RepliesI'm currently researching Flex visualization components for demoing purposes and am wondering if anyone in the community has had success building on top of any current open source projects. I'm currently looking at axiis but am wondering if anyone has found anything similar that worked well for building custom visualization components? I've found some stuff hosted on Google code but haven't found anything very mature yet.
View 1 RepliesI am wondring if anyone has a good resource for opening existing Flex projects that where created in Flex / Flash Builder and run them using the TextMate bundle for Flex and Actionscript projects.
Basically I just want to know if I can walk into an existing project and configure this easily or am I pretty much stuck with using Eclipse ?
Ive been doing some research and I cant seem to find anything on writing to a file. My initial question was writing a array to a seperate file. But now I am looking for resources on how to write any data such as XML or a array to a file. What I want to do is create a game editor. I want to eventually save that data to a file to be opened later.
View 1 RepliesI am trying to develop a flex 3 application that would appear like a vertical/horizontal hierarchy. It will represent the flow of any application based on user selection.
Here black dots represent the nodes (description) that could be furthur divided into sub-nodes having their own description. White nodes represents the end-point of that expanded view branch. Each node represents some part of application,
I'm about to develop a multi-chatroom Flex app, and potentially add to it in the future real-timish audio capabilities (push-to-talk audio messaging).
I'm considering Smartfox, Electro, Wowza, and LCCS.
I've been porting a Flex 4 codebase to iOS using the adobe packager, but have run into a snag when trying to package our whole codebase. The packager runs for a while and then throws an OutOfMemoryError - even if I increase the java heap size to 4GB. No single piece of code seems to be causing the problem, as it compiles successfully if I cut out large chunks of code, and I can change which chunks I'm omitting. It might be related to the size of the code itself.I've logged a very detailed bug report with adobe here: ou can package to reproduce the issue, a ruby script that generates actionscript codeto generate that AIRI file, and a summary of all of the things I tried before logging the bug.

View 1 RepliesI'm having problems compiling applications with remote ant, something similar to this. However the flex compiler seems to have problems with this. When I run the same script on my local compiles everything without any problems but when I try the remote ant it fails without giving more information.

I'm a junior developer and I'm having some problems with my flex builder 3. Every time I make a new project, flex builder detects syntax errors like:
1084: Syntax error: expecting rightbracket before leftbrace. FotoBeheer line 23
1084: Syntax error: expecting rightbracket before public. FotoBeheer line 22
1084: Syntax error: expecting rightparen before s. DomoticaSystem line 16
1093: Syntax error. DomoticaSystem line 16
Nevertheless, Fotobeheer will run, but any other program just won't even start. Does anybody have any ideas how to solve this problem?
I'm not a flash developer, I'm having issues figuring out how I should set up these two projects that I have in Flex Builder.I've already created projA which has a .mxml that references several custom controls & skins from com.xxx.controls within projA.I now have to build projB which also has a .mxml that will create a different .swf. I want to use some of the same controls from projA.I currently build projA through the command line and nant and will need to do the same for projB.
Should I create a new project to move all of the common controls into? How do I then use this library project in both the projects & compile via command?

Typically these dependencies are seen in the Eclipse-->Flex Project-->Properties-->Flex Build Path. Graph is expected to funnel thru' all the way into these dependencies until the leaf has none.

View 1 RepliesMy company want to develop an online multitouch scrumboard for our scrumteams. We are still in doubt between flex and silverlight as platform for the application. (don't want to fire a hole new flex vs. silverlight discussion again) Installation rate & platform independence are not critical to us, because it's just for teammembers and only windows 7 enables multitouch events in flash or silverlight.We would like some pros/cons specifically for this project (multitouch, rich user interface, integration with backends).[code]

View 1 RepliesI have several Flex Builder projects which depend on each other (both libraries and "applications",projects which generate an SWF), and want to compile them from commandline. I know there is the fb.exportReleaseBuild ant-Task, but unfortunately it doesn't work on Linux and only comes with Flex Builder.
Is there any other way to build those projects, including their dependencies, from commandline?
We're currently developing a flex web app and our build situation is far from ideal. At present we're (as in individual developers) just building using FlashBuilder and deploying manually. The programmers are currently screaming bloody murder for two reasons, though:The lack of CI is like going back to the stone ageWe don't much care for FlashBuilder(Note: We're only using FlashBuilder because it was the easiest way to set up a flex project in conjunction with Away3d and get it building / rendering correctly -- it's a stopgap solution).As a predominately .NET development shop, we're used to doing continuous integration as well as continuous deployment. Ideally, we'd like to get something comparable to this for our flash projects without tying ourselves to a particular IDE.
Requirements:
The build process must be:
.. runnable via the commandline
.. runnable on both developer and CI build machines (and certainly not requiring an IDE!)
.. preferably as IDE-independent as possible (pragmatism will kick in though; if this causes a lot of friction we'll just pick one).
.. able to run on Windows (we develop using Windows)
We don't mind a touch of duplication or a few manual steps (e.g. tarting up the build scripts if we add a new project via an IDE, or generating one configuration from another if tools exist), but the less duplication / maintenance required the better.
