Yes, me :-) I'm pushing Royale internally, I think it has a lot of promise - although I still do find it a little frustrating at times internally! In terms of what support you can give, the sorts of things you're already doing are great, but yes it might mean we lean a little more on this mailing list if we're facing tricky issues.
We have one sales case in particular at the moment which has the potential to be very big, we're hoping they move forwards with a proof of concept project which would take a small part of their app and port this to Royale. A few issues we've found so far from investigations: - their flex code is embedding icons that are contained within a SWF. Royale compiler didn't seem to like this, not sure whether it's just syntax or whether we need to pull all the assets out (not a big job, we can automate that..) - they have binding using functions e.g. text="{localizationHelper.getString('fieldName')}", which caused an issue when generating the JavaScript code as the string-within-a-string seemed to upset the parser. We can look at this later perhaps though.. - when we got it compiling, the main thing was with responsiveness i.e. trying to get the app to resize and for all the internal elements to then resize. We may use the MX emulation classes for this but it still looked like more support is needed - although we only looked briefly at this. Once those issues are sorted though, we would have one big task (to recreate a very advanced data grid control that they'd developed in Flex/Flash) and a lot of the rest - around the AS3 logic - should fall into place! I'm hoping we can convince them to go with this solution.. thanks Andrew -----Original Message----- From: Harbs [mailto:harbs.li...@gmail.com] Sent: 04 June 2019 14:41 To: dev@royale.apache.org Subject: [EXTERNAL] Re: AIR and Royale Well to start with: Does anyone know anyone working for them?
