Re: Kotlinjs has solved the circular dependency problem. Flexjs, do you have any plans?

[Alex Harui]

Hi Lizhi,

I still would like to see a small reproducible test case.  If we set a
pattern where anyone can hand us 100's of files to debug then we will
simply not make much progress on FlexJS.  We need you to help us by making
a small test case.  FlexJS is being developed by a relatively small team.
We don't have a staff of folks writing tests so yes, there are going to be
plenty of bugs found by users for a while.  Even better than asking
questions, it would be great if you tried to learn the compiler code and
proposed patches.

I know your English skills are challenging for you, but I have found that
if you take the time to provide enough detail in the code we can usually
understand your question, and these days, if you post in Chinese, Google
Translate does a pretty good job of translating.

So, please use a text search tool to find out where setTimeout is used in
your code and see if you can make a small test case from just those files
and post how setTimeout is being used.

Thanks,
-Alex

Re: [FlexJS] Re: Remote object for Flex JS

[Alex Harui]

Hi Greg,

I didn't even realize the old thread was on users@ so thanks for moving it
here.

I'm sure there are lots of improvements needed to make this work in the
general case so thanks for noticing and offering to help out.  I wondered
for a bit whether there already was a "collect the properties" utility.
Maybe we should create one that takes into account all of the issues you
raised.

It was cool to see the reflection APIs work, so thanks for doing them.
BTW, you need the latest compiler to add the [RemoteClass] data to the app
so the ClassAliasBead can register those classes.

Thanks,
-Alex

Re: Kotlinjs has solved the circular dependency problem. Flexjs, do you have any plans?

[lizhi]

So how do you solve this bug? Now change this bug, and people who use flexjs
later will be popular. If you know it is bug, but do not think of ways to
change this bug. Flexjs will only become less and less popular. Because
flash is dead, I don't want to see flexjs die too. Only SDK stability,
reduce bug, will be more and more people use flexjs. More people will use
more and more. Now I feel uncomfortable with this SDK, because every update
will always encounter a variety of bug, and then I will come to the forum to
ask questions. And as a Chinese, I'm not very good at communicating in
English
