Hi all, in attach you can find the patch for all this stuff, and even a sample test application of it (the bxml file and the js containing the logic). I have sen that Alert and Prompt already contains a static method, but I think that even a constructor one dedicated to this is useful.
And I know that the new utility class Console is trivial, but having a default implementation could help in simple cases ... so the new test application, showing the usage of all these diagnostic-related methods. Unless objections I'll commit this Friday (and assign it to an issue for the 2.0.2, as improvement). Anyway, tell me what you think.
