 | 11 May 05:05 After playing/working with Flex and Cairngorm for a few months, Joe Rinehart (author for Model-Glue) chose to write a port for Flex. Cairngorm was built by the Adobe Consulting Group, and applies a number of design patterns and best practices that make it very flexible, scalable, robust, and manageable, however, because of its layers of abstraction it does require some repetitive code to be written. 17 Apr 11:00 I am curious why no one has posted any articles on the IIS/Apache Flex Modules... Adobe made available on labs a plugin to compile Flex code server-side, just like Flex 1.5 did... with that said, it's probably simpler to write Flex than Flash Forms, and by far more powerful... so why haven't we seen any ColdFusion / Flex Module examples? Performance? I haven't tried it yet (guilty as charged), but I will put together a few examples to prove my theory... 29 Mar 20:01 Extra, extra, read all about it! Flex Wizard in a miracle cure! I'll be teaching a full day pre-conference class June the 25th, at the CFUnited Conference. Last year I taught an Ajax Intensive class, which turned out to be very successful... The feedback I received was: more code, more code! so this year, it's mostly hands-on! You'll be coding in no time.This full day hands-on Flex course that require no previous Flex experience. 19 Mar 20:25 Apollo is the code name for a cross-operating system runtime being developed by Adobe that allows developers to leverage their existing web development skills (Flash, Flex, HTML, JavaScript, Ajax) to build and deploy rich Internet applications (RIAs) to the desktop. 1 Mar 11:07 CF.Objective() updated the sessions list, and let me tell you, it looks amazing! This will be the best high-level CF event of the year, so I hope to see you there.I'll be speaking on Flex and Cairngorm Microarchitecture, a fresh new topic which should interest most CF developers. 8 Jan 15:05 Adobe released an update for Flex: 2.0.1. I just wrote (and lost) a review of the new changes, and it's passed 2am, so I'm not writing it again ... In summary, it now has official support for Macs, it has new JIT support for adding/removing modules in runtime, it's moving towards Apollo integration. You can see the official release notes and also check out Ted's detailed review. 21 Dec 04:49 This video is amazing! Mike Chambers and Christian Cantrell demo a few apps written in Apollo. Apollo for those of you who're new to it, it's going to be the bridge between desktop and internet applications; it allows running native Flash and HTML in your desktop, interactive with all native components.. and it works with PCs and Macs. 15 Dec 11:37 Adobe Systems Incorporated (Nasdaq:ADBE) will introduce a beta version of Adobe® Photoshop® CS3 software, the next release of the world standard in digital imaging, on Friday, December 15th. Adobe is delivering a widely available Photoshop CS... 13 Dec 11:45 jQuery 1.0.4 it out; 247 bug fixes, plus a few nice additions... The Ajax libraries have been fully refactored plus there are a few new properties to the $.ajax method. Important note, $.get and $.post are deprecated in favor of the $.ajax function.A... 10 Dec 11:56 Back in April I perform an egosurf test, so I chose to re-take it and see that changed... here're the updated resutls.Resutls for "Rob Gonda" engine ranking ego points ... | | |
