A couple of good Flex improvement ideas

rost — Mon, 14 Jun 2010 15:32:32 +0000

Constantin Kovalev has posted a good Flex improvement ideas on Adobe’s website — I think they are good to promote:

1. Cover all the Flex Framework with unit tests

Dear Adobe! Please extend MXML’s fx:Metadata tag functionality to have possibility to annotate any MXML tag with metatags using preceding fx:Metadata tag.
+ Promote this idea!

2. Support meta tags in MXML

Dear Adobe! Please extend MXML’s fx:Metadata tag functionality to have possibility to annotate any MXML tag with metatags using preceding fx:Metadata tag.
+ Promote this idea!

3. Host some central Flash/Flex public related Maven repository

It will be supergreat if Adobe will host some public Maven repository for Flex/Flash libraries. It will be a great step towards community and just an other prove of Adobe’s openness We know there is Cairngorm 3 Maven repositoryhttp://opensource.adobe.com/svn/opensource/cairngorm3/maven-repository/ but it is just a set of swc files in Subversion without index etc. Please host some Nexus compatible repository. And it will be great if any developer can submit their own artifacts there. I believe it is much more effective for opensource community than any marketplace.
+ Promote this idea!

The more good ideas we promote — the faster Adobe will hear us and make better Flex, so — don’t be passive, go and promote right things!

This is a game for you, perfectionist flexer nerds. Go to hackr challenge, and test yourself, whether you know your Flex good:

Maybe, you know your Flex too bad, and it’s worth learning more Flex in a week?

Lost and Found: The Playable Virtual Arcade Games of Soviet Children, Online

rost — Wed, 03 Jun 2009 15:00:54 +0000

When some of Soviet adults played big and serious Cold War Game, the happy children of U.S.S.R. were spending their time in different way. The culture of arcade machine games was blossoming in both city and country side. To be honest, not every village have got its electronic playground made on military factories, but there was pretty plenty of, and I was one of that happy children who has access.

That time has gone as soon as Iron Curtain fell and cheap game consoles (Mario, we remember you too) and then PCs became available to the regular families. But memory lives, and there are people in Moscow who does remember the old-school Soviet Arcade games, a big metal boxes with fancy, colorful reality inside, with controls and buttons, with a lot of fun. Alexander Stelmakh have founded the Museum, there are some details in the Wired’s Soviet-Era Arcade Games Crawl Out of Their Cold War article.

Now, some of the Soviet Era Arcades are online and playable

And now anyone can visit the Museum of Soviet arcade machines, that just opened today! At the moment, only its Russian version is fully functional. But you can actually play the favorite arcade games of Soviet kids. We thank the Flash Developer of Artemy Lebedev Studio, Dmitry Bezverhii and Anton Sidorenko, we also want to respect the whole ArtLebedev Studio for this cool work. These games probably not for everyone, but here they are, virtual Arcade Mashines of the U.S.S.R. At present, only four have been created in flash, but I hope more to come:

Play “Magistral“ (eng: “Thoroughfare”), read its translated description.
Play “Morskoy Boy“ (eng: “Sea Battle”). This game seems to be a clone of “Midway’s Sea Raider”. Read translated description.
Play “Gorodki“, old Russian Game, here’s translated description and article in Wikipedia.
Play “Avtoralli“ (eng: “Rally”), read its translated description.

Also, there are a huge quantity of nice illustrations of the development process.

The question is, can these games be popular in wide auditory, except the fans of 8-bit art, old school and vintage junkies, and the ex-children of Soviet Union?

Call from Flash to Skype is possible now

rost — Fri, 20 Feb 2009 13:24:46 +0000

This is true: guys from FlaPhone is really making it possible and invite you to test it.

Official announcement: FlaPhone: Calls to Skype are now available.

Adobe Marketplace now promotes the FlaPhone AIR Application.

It seems to be a win start of SIP telephony. If only Adobe will make Mobile Flash Player which will be able to handle such calls, the world of mobile communications can change dramatically.

Adobe Flex, Microsoft Silverlight and future of computing

rost — Thu, 12 Feb 2009 13:47:22 +0000

Kevin Hoyt from Adobe and Sam Stokes from Microsoft will have a debates on technologies, platforms and future today, 12 February 2009, 7:00 PM (PST/GMT +8), in the Bronco Student Center (Ursa Minor) at California State Polytechnic University in Pomona. Microsoft and Adobe will demonstrate their evidences of domination. Adobe, who gave the world Photoshop, Flash, Flex, Dreamweaver and AfterEffects, engage developers to create cross-platform media prodigies online as well as a desktop applications, being able to run with or without the internet connection, which is possible with Adobe Integrated Runtime, or just AIR. Microsoft gives developers the opportunity of creation online applications which are full of media and animation with Silverlight and power of C#. Interesting.

Debates will be translated online in two options:

For users who have got a mid-bandwidth channel, higher quality.
For users with low-bandwidth, lower quality.

At the moment, a nice ballet is translated there, with interruptions sometimes.

By the way, Kevin Hoyt recently published an useful AIR application with sources, which itself is a set of 75 samples of JavaScript AIR applications with centralized launch interface. It worth looking inside, especially when you know how much power is in the JavaScript frameworks like ExtJS, which embraces the AIR too.

rost — Tue, 19 Aug 2008 21:24:38 +0000

Ted Patrick just shared some info on his new “Hyperdrive” project which is a hosted video service for AdobeTV and Adobe Media Player, or just AMP.

This video project is for contain app demos, tutorials and conference sessions created by community. Anyone can upload his stuff and share with others.

To start with Hyperdrive, Ted uploaded the complete set of full San Jose 360|Flex Sessions recordings, so anyone can see them through the AMP now. All videos are High Definition 1024×768 ones. At the moment, 5 sessions are available:

TicketMaster Kiosk by Kevin Fauth
Flex Accessibility by Giorgio Natili
Reading the Flex source code by Jonathan Branam
Project Workflow by Axel Jensen
Creating Reusable Components by Ben Clinkbeard

I decided to include the 360Flex AMP pre-install badge in this post:

You can notice that widget now contains not so much content. I guess this will change very soon. Don’t forget it’s a pre-alpha start. Keep rolling, Ted!

Flash and Flex Remoting implementations for different platforms

There’s a lot Flex Remoting solutions for different platforms and platforms and languages. I decided to summarize them in the following list:

Java: BlazeDS. Official Adobe open source Flex Remoting solution, proposed for porting to all other platforms.
Tutorial: How to use BlazeDS Remoting.
.NET: FluorineFx. Works just great (tested by myself).
Tutorial: How to Integrate .Net / Flex 3 with FluorineFX.
Python: PyAMF.
Tutorial: Using PyAMF with Google App Engine.
PHP: AMFPHP.
Tutorials: Flash/PHP/Flex/AMFPHP Tutorials.

Tutorials: Flexible Rails excerpt: Refactoring to RubyAMF, Flash Remoting for Rails Tutorial.
AJAX: WebORB. AJAX, Java, .NET, PHP and RoR Remoting!
Tutorials and Examples: WebORB and Rich Client System Demos.

It’s just great to see how widely Flash Remoting and AMF are spreaded among the web development world. Am I missing any important tool here?

The only AIR application a man can’t resist to install

Rost — Thu, 17 Jul 2008 15:09:23 +0000

Desktop Keeley – as soon as you’ll see its screen shot, you’ll decide to try it, for sure. Let’s quote the Sun, an distributor of this creative application, where News are being gently mixed with Girls, or vice versa:

“Dressed in a stunning range of lingerie, Keeley will be at your beck and call 24/7 and comes armed with all the information you need, whether it’s celeb’s drunken antics, the latest football transfer news or the Page 3 girl of the day.

You decide how often she appears and can choose from a wide range of topics with just a few clicks of your mouse.”

To get started, simply GET KEELEY NOW. Also, you may want to know what’s behind this pretty special app.

Really, what they have made! Sometimes Keely just goes over my desktop and tells me to get back to work

How to make your first AIR Application using Flash CS3

Rost — Sun, 22 Jun 2008 19:32:29 +0000

This works like magic – now Flash Developers can easily create AIR applications on their own. Lee Brimelow appeared in the Adobe TV show where he has shown the process of creation of the simple AIR application using solely Adobe Flash CS3 IDE. So, here’s the full recording of this show:

Short and useful tutorial. I just emphasize the moment of enabling AIR development in your copy of Flash CS3 IDE. In order to get the full pack of joy, you just have to make sure that you have installed all necessary updates from Adobe in the following order (sequence can’t be changed: each next item strongly depends on the previous one):

After installing these updates you’ll get the full AIR features including multilingual applications support. In the ‘Create New’ section of the Welcome Screen, you’ll see a new item named ‘Flash File (Adobe AIR). In Commands menu, two new items will appear:

Magic, magic!

Parallel People Workflow – Acrobat.com

rost — Tue, 03 Jun 2008 00:31:29 +0000

BuzzWord + ConnectNow + 5GB Shared for me at Acrobat.com – it was the happy very first day of Summer’08.It seems like I’ve just thought about something like it and now it’s here. Actually, I was only thirsty for using Connect as replacement for my teleconferencing with clients, but Adobe, it looks like you read my thoughts in advance on almost everything regarding online collaboration and documentation. Regarding ADs, I like how it is explained:

“…about whether we are going to put advertising in Acrobat.com. In short, that is not our plan today. Adobe has built a great business selling software, and we plan to continue to do so with software as a service via Acrobat.com.”

I tend to call it Parallel People Workflow, which is hardly only a technical, but motivational issue too: as I remember, it is usually easier to proceed with the document when you know you are not alone. Maybe it’s just my laziness, but then other people probably got it too.

Google 3D Maps Adobe AIR Application v 0.5

Rost — Fri, 30 May 2008 18:26:19 +0000

Here’s the promised update: Google 3D Maps Adobe AIR Application, version 0.5. The main subject of this update is to target the Release Version of the Adobe AIR Runtime – you’ll need it to run this app. Sorry for this long delay.
Download Google 3D Maps Adobe AIR App v0.5, source flies (and bugs) are included

About Google 3D Maps on Air: This app utilizes the Papervision3D engine, Google Maps and Adobe AIR HTML component to create the interactive planar and spherical maps from html pages loaded from Google Maps.

Actually, it can operate at any other web page in the same way. Now I’m going to implement the same functionality within Adobe Flex, it just became possible because of recently released the Google Maps API for Flash.

Have fun and nice weekend

ColdFusion 8 & AJAX & Flex3

Ashwin Mathew made an online presentation dedicated to developing AJAX Applications in ColdFusion 8 (it was 21st May 2008 at the Bay Area ColdFusion User Group). You can see the full Adobe Connect recording complete with chat and other Connect features here: ColdFusion 8 AJAX by Ashwin Mathew.

Also, there’s article in the Adobe Developer center with an overview of Ajax features in ColdFusion 8.
