Re: AW: AW: Donation of Flexmojos
Is there any progress in donating flexmojos to Apache? I am stuck because of GPL and I cannot go forward and use 6.0.1 as my company is not allowing to use GPL licensed software.

Re: AW: AW: Donation of Flexmojos
Hi Chris, Let me know if I can help in creating new plugin. I can give minimum 2 hours daily for this.

Unfortunately Velo never requested users to officially sign an ICLA. So they are still in possetion of the rights to that code. In order to donate this, they would all have to agree. This is an enormous amount of people I would have to ask. So we dropped this idea. We were thinking about creating a new plugin here at apache. Unfortunately I have so much stuff to do here that I can't find any time to work on that ... the skeleton is there though. But the GPL of Flexmojos shouldn't have any influence on what you build with Flexmojos. As far as I know, it would only be problematic, if you bundled Flexmojos itself with your product.

Re: Unable to install the nightly build
Hi All, I am also not able to install the release 4.13. Tried many times but its failing at same point always. Please see the attached screenshot. I am working in storage start up Tegile Systems as Flex Developer. My current web app is on sdk 4.0 and we have redesigned whole application so its time to change sdk too. I wanted to evaluate Apache Flex SDK. It will be great help if someone see the attached error.png and let me know if I am doing any wrong while installing it.

Re: Flex - I’m having an AWFUL time getting this website to work in IE10.
I guess you have to install flash player as this plugin is missing from IE 10. we have also faced same issue with window 2012 server. Go to IE 10 setting and check whether you have adobe flash player installed or not. -- *Thanks Regards* *Gautam Pandey* *Tegile Systems* *Ph : +91 9243014820* On Tue, Jun 11, 2013 at 10:57 AM, Angelo Anolin angelo.ano...@gmail.comwrote: Just for a quick thing, can you right click on your browser where the app is supposed to be loading and tell us what menu options shows up? Also in IE 10, from the tools menu, there's a view source option. Can you paste the source here?

Since you're admittedly a novice when it comes to Flash-based technologies and embedding them into an HTML page, that's the route I would go. If you look on the SWFObject Google code site there is even an app you can run that will generate the JavaScript code for you so you can just copy and paste it over.

But I'm pretty sure that the boss said it used flex a few months back.. Would love to learn more about flex.. Is there a flex for dummies tutorial where I can learn the ropes?? I use dreamweaver for other projects and I really don't know much about flash or flex.. But I'm interested in submitting a couple of screenshots tomorrow. Basically there are rumors that we have to run our app in ie8 mode.. But I just get confused about quirks mode vs comparability mode. Basically I try to use this ie ten machine today.. we are looking twards rolling out ie ten but im having hard time understanding what I need to do to get it working in ten. Can't u just run websites in ie8 comparability mode?? It works in ie nine but not ie ten. I don't understand that.. I mean to say I don't like it. So in ten i go to sign into my website via IP address and it just returns a simple xsl file and no content.. It's basically just a blank page. But it works great from another machine.. I've tried fiddling with the request headers .. Sorry if I'm using the wrong adjective. I just can't for the life of me get Internet explorer ten to run this app and I put a couple two hours into testing to today.. In the big picture I'm interested in writing some sort of test harness that can download reports from our erp automagically and save them to a unc path... I would be a hero if I could do that. Technically I'm already a hero . But we have small IT dept. in Pittsburgh that calls all the shots.. And we're probably going to purchase another company in a few months so I'm rapidly losing my window of opportunity. The erp system runs on progress database and we have about twenty percent of the data coming out to a data warehouse that is where I come in.. Long term we add more data to dw but short term we need to come up with some sort of automation solution to keep this app in scope. I see a fair amount of web service calls and of course getting any sort of visibility to the web services would really open a ton of doors for us. Can someone give me a thirty second over lview of how web services and flex and flash interoperate?? Anything I could do sign in programmatically and either download data or screen scrape or jam data into web services it would just be crazy how many doors that would open for us. We basically have a hosted data silo and it's frustrating as heck that we cannot get to our data in some sort of open and honorable ways. I'm sorry if I'm rambling.. Would be glad to send some screenshots tomorrow but it will take a couple of hours before I could generate the errors I've been getting that make me think it is using flex... My bosses boss is way too busy to talk to me about this app... I'm just dying to find a wsdl or something along those lines.. I know that about half of the complex data entry forms use flash.. Sometimes I get error messages and I can't really follow what technology it is using .. But it looks chock full of flash and web services .. And every where I turn we have new users with ie comparability problems.. And now we can't push out windows eight or even server 2012 without being
