Re: adobe flex vs apache flex
Apache FLEX was before Adobe FLEX. It was donated by Adobe to Apache last year, so you'll find references to Apache from 4.8 version of the SDK. 2013/8/14 maven apache apachemav...@gmail.com Hi: What is the difference between adobe flex and apache flex or are they the same thing? Because I am new in flex, once I search some questions in google, I will find most of them links will refer to the adobe site. I hope someone can give some explanation. Thanks.
Re: adobe flex vs apache flex
@Carlos Velasco: So does it mean that I can only refer to the docs at apache? I can think the `adobe flex` does not even exist? BTW, does it matter if choosing for adobe flex ide(adobe flash builder 4.7 now) and others like FlashDevelper? 2013/8/14 Carlos Velasco carlos.velasco.bla...@gmail.com Apache FLEX was before Adobe FLEX.

RE: adobe flex vs apache flex
Yes. Who generates the application is not the IDE but the compiler.So from the same SDK you will have the same compiler so the output will be the same (of course if the options of the compiler are the same!).

Re: adobe flex vs apache flex
Yes, you'll get the same application from the same source code using those IDEs. Just project organization that could vary, as each IDE has its own way to organize a project in order to get it compiled. Some IDEs allow you to import project structure from other IDEs project files also. 2013/8/14 maven apache apachemav...@gmail.com Thanks all your guys.

Re: adobe flex vs apache flex
Because I am new in flex, once I search some questions in google, I will find most of them links will refer to the adobe site. How can you not check Wikipedia first if there is an article about Adobe or Apache Flex at all? I'm sure it answers most of your questions. Here, let me help you: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apache_Flex On a side note: So, is that how people start using new technologies nowadays? Going straight to the mailing list asking people about the most basic things? What about some research first? Usually you should read as much as possible of the available information on the internet yourself before you start asking questions like this. Wikipedia is usually a good starting point for that. Don't get me wrong, you will get answers here because people are nice and like to share their knowledge, this is what OSS is all about. But it's a PITA to answer such questions over and over again just because someone can't do the most basic online search. Some really weird research you got there ...

You're right, helping people with their immediate problem is important, and I actually did provide him with a link that should answer his questions, so I wasn't saying go away, do your homework at all.

Re: adobe flex vs apache flex
Please. I have googled `adobe flex vs apache flex` even 'flex adobe apache` before I ask in this maillist. None of the result tell me about the relation but only `adobe have donated the SDK to apache`. But generally, if one project is donated to a third-party organization, so most of support/docs will be found at the organization, event there is a link in the old owner, it will redirect to the new site. For example, `OpenOffice`, oralce donated it to apache. Now you search it in google, you can hardly find anything about oralce. So this will make no confusion. Back to Flex, thishttps://www.diigo.com/item/p/prpopsbzbqosqapcczbbbdcrec/4cf564acf1feccd84acbf6a409f69ed3is what I got. So I am confused. So I ask this question in this maillist because I prefer to apache by its wonderful open-source project(tomcat is my favorite ). So, trust me, I would ask if I have other choice. 2013/8/14 dude d...@atheist.com Because I am new in flex, once I search some questions in google, I will find most of them links will refer to the adobe site.
