Well then what you've done is moved away from his original question and gone into the subject of project size/scope. I thought we were still talking about his question, so I apologize. I assumed when you used it in the context of his question about Webservices... well, anyway. >>IMO, using multiple design patterns = framework Whether you >>throw them together on your own or use an existing one, it's >>still a framework. I guess that's your opinion and not mine. You're using the word framework a lot more losely than I would. >>Stuff like Cairngorm and ARP are just a step up from MVC. >>IMO, you can read about them all day long.. the only thing >>that will help you grasp the concept is getting your hands >>dirty and actually use them (at least that's what works for me). Yeah, so it's the cart before the horse. How can you start using a framework if the docs you read don't help explain how to get started using it? You can't use the framework until you know how to use the framework. >>I rewrote your code because it was wrong/sloppy: Maybe for AS3, but I follow the method shown in the AS2 docs. It's not wrong if it works correctly, although as you have illustrated there may be a better more refined method. Sloppy infers that the coder knew a better way but chose not to do it, which was not the case. I didn't realize that setting it as a pending call would be better in this case. Either way, my intent is just to help the original poster in his question about Webservices, not go on and on about how he should be using frameworks on large projects.
