Re: [flexcoders] properties in components..
Hi Rich,
This is just a test case of mine. I want to set the label of the button using
script, inside the component. Forget trying to set it in the main application.
There are no compile errors in the component code (make the id of the button
whatever you wish), until the component is included in the main application.
At that time any reference to the button is not recognised as a valid property
by the compiler, though the code hinting obliges nicely!

The 1st problem is that you can not name your button id x as it is a reserved
word.
Not sure what you are trying to accomplish. If your goal is to be able to set
the label from the main application, you should do something like this:
?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
mx:Canvas xmlns:mx=http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml; width=400
height=300
mx:Script
![CDATA[
[Bindable]
public var myLabel:String=jim;
]]
/mx:Script
mx:Button id=x1 label={myLabel}/
/mx:Canvas
?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
mx:Application xmlns:mx=http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml; layout=absolute
xmlns:local=*
local:Test myLabel=Rich/

OK, this is driving me nuts. I'm using Flex Builder 2.01 on a PC.
I have a very simple component (say test.mxml), code below, where I set a
label value on a button using actionscript.
I can get this to compile very simply and we're all happy.
As soon as I edit the main application(main.mxml) to include this component:
comp:test
/comp:test
main.mxml is happy but now I get a compile error (access of undefined
property) in test.mxml saying that the button id is an undefined property.
When I edit the test.mxml code, flexbuilder will happily give me code hints
about the properties after I've put in the button id.
What's going on? Maybe I just need more coffee?

Re: [flexcoders] Returning 'this' from an overridden method?

Subject: [flexcoders] Returning 'this' from an overridden method?
Please pardon this simple-minded question from an AS3 novice.
My base class often returns 'this' from methods which makes it
convenient to write code like:
camera.move( 10, 12 ).rotateX( 45 ).rotateY( 90 );
The problem comes when code extends the base class and overrides one
of these functions. The compiler insists, correctly, that the return
type of an overriding function must match the one in the base class.
What I want to do is return the 'this' object that is of the type of
the derived class. Is this possible?
The following is a contrived example to demonstrate. It won't
compile because the overridden function in the derived class wants to
return a type of MyCamera rather than Camera:
This is the correct behaviour. The derived class is MyCamera and any
reference to this, either in the derived class or it's parent will be
working with an object of class MyCamera not Camera.
Make the return type Camera, then it will work. You will be returning an
object reference of class Camera, but in fact it is an object reference to
an object of class MyCamera. You can then cast it elsewhere as a 'MyCamera'
in the application.
The problem is that you are trying to change the signature of the method
that you are overriding.
Paul
public class Camera
{
var x:int = 0;
var y:int = 0;
public function move( x:int, y:int ) :Camera
{
this.x += x;
this.y += y;
return( this );
}
}
public class MyCamera extends Camera
{
override public function move( x:int, y:int ) :MyCamera
{
super.move( x, y );
if( x 0 ) x = 0;
if( y 0 ) y = 0;
return( this );
}
}

Or maybe Ted Patrick, you could let others there know that this is a major issue for people, and it should be addressed. Here are the issues that we are currently facing: 1. In order to transfer the license you have to be the authorized purchaser of the software and Adobe won't accept a request form the actual end user of the license. To make it worse Adobe won't tell us who that person is. At a rather large organization (10,000 + employees) like Scholastic, finding this authorized person is really difficult to do. 2. Even if we do find the person above, we are told that the process will take five days from the approved request before Adobe will issue the Mac license number. 3. Currently there's no way for us to extend the trial version until this is worked out. We either have to install the trial on another computer or just wait it out. It's a pitty that such a great piece of software has so many barriers and red tape to actually use it.

Here are my questions: 1) If I do this, can I add a loader to each child of the ViewStack so that the user does not have to wait for the entire app to load in order to start the application? This already happens with components instantiated on demand as you run through the view stack. 2) I could also do this using ViewStates, but it seems to me that ViewStates are more useful when there are significant shared assets components between the different states. However, performance-wise would it be better to use one over the other? I would split the different 'screens' into separate flex components and add them into the viewstack. Having them as separate components makes the app much more modular - my designs are components nested within components like building bricks. Use events to communicate between components (or more properly your MVC architecture). 3) In the long run (should my application grow larger) would it be better to use a modular approach and load modules for each view? See how it goes - build as much as you need - when/if it gets slow, look again at re-architecting the application using components you have built. Don't make things more complicated than it needs to be. However because I am using Cairngorm would this add an extra layer of difficulty trying to maintain/share a ModelLocator, FrontController, etc between a number of different modules? Don't really see how Cairngorm would affect this. If you build in complication it will be complicated with or without Cairngorm. Paul Thanks for your advice.

Re: [flexcoders] Crazy Issue
No particular theories, but it sounds like you need some debugging/audit trail to be able to monitor what's really happenning.

I am getting feedback from management that the following occured.Here is the setup.A flex2 swf running within a .jsp reads in a url variable using request.getParameter(). The variable is passed into the swf using flashVars and stored as a property of the model. The application loads specific data based on that model.id. The application then allows the user to input data and attaches the model.id to the object and then saves it to the database through a remote object java/hibernate backend. Management is telling me that a record in the database shows a different id than the one that was passed into the application through flashVars. I don't see any way this could be possible but thought I would throw it out to the list. There have been hundeds of records that have been saved properly and only one in question.

Re: [flexcoders] Data synchronisation tips and tricks?
Hi Everyone, Excelent Topic!.. I am now in the midst of writing or should i say rewriting an existing CF/Flash forms app to a Flex/CF/FDS app with SQL 2000. Its a dispatching system. we have several hundred agents creating a dispatch, on creation, each dispatch checks for availability of its team members and offers the dispatch to each member one at a time. there is a timeout between the offerings. The backend (CF) functions run on a schedule every 15 minutes none stop 24/7. If this task finds dispatches that need attention either from a tech or a manager, the underlying data is modified by the backend CFC. Once the dispatch has either been accepted by a tech or cancled by a manager the process is complete. Not much here for FDS on the catching of collisions, but there is alot of data changes that happen all the time. I am building a case for purchasing Flex and FDS. and need some good examples of how to accomlish the same types of things with the DAO objects and FDS and grids within a flex app. Here is my show stopper. I have yet to find a way (I am sure there is one) to call the sync methods of the FDS ArrayCollection representation of the underlying data by my existing CFC's that actually modify the data. In other words, no none flex code can push out the changes! This is a huge problem for me, i am not a Java coder, but i know a bit about it. I can call the create, update, and delete methods within the actual DAO cfc, but not the Assembler cfc. Those require an object to passed to them. a ChangeObject. and i do not know how to create on withing CF/CFC code in order to modify the data in a way that the clients will see the changes. I started my project out with the guts of the CFcontact example and i have read all the samples and articles on devnet, but nothing really stands out about how to modify this virtual data (FDS ArrayCollection) without actually Using Flex to make the changes. Anyway, this is my war story, hopefully i will find a solution and i can complete my Case study. By the way, i have had to blow away my installation of Flex Builder so many times now, i have run out of PC's to reinstall it on :( i dont want to buy it yet because of this issue...

I also downloaded the license agreements for Flex Builder and Charting, and I must say, I am not very good in deciphering what it really means. I understand that you cannot redistribute SDK files, the IDE itself, etc. but the compiled code (its just an SWF, isnt it) should be freely distributable. This is what one would expect from any dev environment, such as Visual Studio, or Flash MX for that matter. Or am I missing something? Can someone enlighten me ?

Hi, Flex2/ActionScript programming model is singlethreaded, but it has asynchronous IO calls. This means that obviously AVM has threads to implement asyncIO. I need to perform some time consuming computations within actionscript, but I can't spawn new thread in AS. Hence the questions: 1. can I somehow implement local service which will receive requests and post responses (events) to consume in GUI (event dispatch thread)? I mean reuse asynchronous IO implementation. 2. back in windows 3.xx days (single threaded os) there was nested event loop approach so within computation loop I can call something like dispatchMessages() to prevent UI from lockup. Is it possible with flex? Not that I know of. You might be able to kludge it using a timer to re-enter a routine to do some computation, then give up control, etc. It would probably seriously compromise the responsiveness of your application. That kind of process is better suited to the server, where you could get back the results on completion.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: another state and targeting issue
Hi Tim, While that may work, should components even be aware of the states used in other parts of the application? I'd suggest that to get truly modular components the component should be raising an event for the application to respond to and change it's own state, rather than have a component do this directly.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: How can I block a TabNavigator ?
Ultimately what determines if it is a good design is whether it works for the user rather than confuses them. People looking at tabs expect to be able to click on them. I've been quite critical of the notion of forcing people through the tabs because it's breaking the tab metaphor. Personally I think that if you are going to use tabs to capture this information, you should let people fill in the tabs in the order they want and have a final 'submit' type control (outside the tabs) that only gets enabled when all of the requisite data has been set (perhaps an indicator on the tab to show which have been completed). I have great difficullty understanding how you can adopt a tab metaphor and force navigation through it with buttons and expect the user to understand it. If you have to do this kind of behaviour use a viewstack and use the buttons to move through that. You've already mentioned using an accordion and that can work well. I wonder if the OP has considered using that?

You could probably calculate the chance of a collitsion based on the length of time it takes to do a booking, how many customers there are (at once) and how many seats there are. If the chance in low, and fairly simple 'soft reserve' like the above or you option 2 is going to be best, I feel. OTOH, if collisions are going to be frequent, you want to be more proactive to help the users out - but at the end of the day, two people might just press 'submit' at the same time, and one of them is going to get a rolled back transaction and 'please choose another seat'. The other party may back out later, but there isn't much I think you can do about that. Depending on the checkout process you can prevent the rollback altogether. This all depends on how the checkout process black box works. If the checkout process is a black box that can communicate back with the ticketing system for confirmation that the product is still available: Ticketing system marks seats as 'pending booking' and sets a timeout on this status to protext the seats from booking. Ticketing system passes request to the checkout process to get the money from the user. Checkout process processes everything, apart from requesting money from the bank. User presses 'submit' to confirm transaction and payment details. Checkout process asks ticketing system to confirm transaction can proceed and tells ticketing system how long it will need (max) to complete the checkout process upon confirmation by the ticketing system. Ticketing system checks that seats are still available and that timeout has not elapsed. If the timeout left on the seats is less than the time required to complete the checkout (no more human involvement is now required) the timeout is extended. If the timeout has expired, the ticketing system will check that the seats are still available to the requesting customer and will re-reserve the seats, pending booking with enough of a timeout for the checkout process to complete. If the timeout has expired and the seats are no longer available the ticketing system informs checkout to abort and not to take the customers money, otherwise the ticketing system tells the checkout process to complete the transaction. The checkout process informs ticketing system of the result and the ticketing system will update the seat status and interact with the customer accordingly.

Re: [flexcoders] Flex - Database
That's true, but there would be nothing to stop anyone building a data access layer using actionscript that was separate to the view logic. Currently the view logic will use FDS, or a web service/whatever to get the data for the view, there's no logical reason why the fuctionality that typically lives on the server couldn't reside in actionscript classes and still retain independence from the view. It's a separate argument whether you want that processing for performance reasons to take place on the client or the server, but in terms of logically separating layers there's no reason not to do that and have a very slim database/persistence layer sitting on the server rather the full access layer. In essence, it's good that the current Flex facilities (almost) enforce the separation, but even without that separation you can be a good developer and not compromise the architecture. Maybe I'll get flamed for this..

Ah, OK now we're talking about the security of a Flex/Flash app, and I take your point. Is that always an issue on an intranet? perhaps not.

[flexcoders] Data synchronisation tip and tricks?
Most of the traffic conversation here seems to revolve around applications that are essentially read-only or are behaving as though they are single user. Any tips and tricks to be found regarding the synchronisation of data in a multi-user application involving a database. For example (since hotel booking is a prominent example in the RIA world), lets suppose I have two customers (Customer A and Cust B) trying to book the same hotel room on the same day. Both see it as free in the RIA, Cust A books it and now the other must know about it too, so effectively then that's a straight refresh of Cust B display and the aborting of the booking in progress. Lets suppose my application allows Cust B to mark several days of room bookings and (s)he has to hit 'book now' to commit to the booking. While this is going on 'Cust A' has booked one of those days, so now I must merge the updated database with the on-screen representation, so it's no longer a straight replacement of the application display from the database, we're having to merge. Perhaps I'd best not even mention database locking and handling that in a RIA. Get the idea? I appreciate this isn't entirely Flex specific. If there are tips and tricks/best practices in this area with regard to Flex, I'd like to know about them before I re-invent the wheel!

Re: [flexcoders] Re: Data synchronisation tip and tricks?
To be honest, this is old-hat for database programmers, yet it's rarely discussed in Flex/Flash circles and largely ignored in most web discussion. Things tend to move up a notch in complexity once you have to consider multiple users and databases. Usually I tend to favour optimistic locking schemes on the database since they don't cause problems with interactive users (send me a PM and I'll try and explain it if you aren't already aware). The real issue is that potentially with multiple users (with or without a database) data can be changing data underfoot, so there are a few issues. 1) protecting data from unprotected updates that would lose or corrupt data; 2) keeping the user interface updated with changes made by other users/processes (which means merging the new data with what's already presented to the user) Using flags in a database to indicate what's going on in the user interface is to be avoided. The particular danger with flag setting in a database to indicate what's happening in the user interface is that there will be cases where the user interface will not complete it's work leaving the database with flags set indicating some operation is happening when it isn't. This could be a long discussion.. I was hoping for a few war stories or snappy techniques.

Very good topic! I'm working on a RIA using Flex that deals with a similar situation for an online ticketing system. Imagine two or more folks selecting the same seat and wanting to purchase a ticket for it. Essentially this is collision bound, unless it is being handled carefully. I see two solutions: a) Use Flex Data Services and it's real-time features of updating clients with the latest status on a specific room (in your scenario). This will not completely eliminate the possibility that both customers want to book the room at the exact same time. However, it will cut it down quite significantly. Of course, there is some additional stuff going on that we would have to take into consideration. b) Use flags in the database records for each room as to its availability and return a response to a customer when the booking is committed. If someone else has beat them to it, then an error would be returned, eventually halting the rest of the transaction based on the fact that the room now is no longer available. This is a very birds-eye view of what would need to happen, at least in my mind. There may be other approaches and solutions to this problem and I would be interested to hear them!

Matt, what has made Adobe depart from what is standard

this than perhaps an implementation issue (ie, we would have preferred to

Its intentional

You cant change whether a variable is visible to the compiler based on

private?When I do so, I get "1000 Ambiguous reference to
loadState"Any work-arounds? I want to have the setter so that I can
raise theproperty change event when I set the state, but I'd rather not
make itpublic.thanks.Thundersee code:private
var _loadedState:int =
ConfigModelLocator.LOAD_STATE_UNLOADED;[Bindable(event="loadStateChanged")]
public function get loadState():int{return
_loadedState;}private function set
loadState(state:int):void{_loadedState =
state;this.dispatchEvent(new Event("loadStateChanged"));
}

Re: [flexcoders] Architecture question
OK, interesting stuff! It's not clear from your description how a given user would choose the right application build for them. I can see two possibilities. 1) A flex front end loads a menu (from a web service) offering a list of application builds to the user (I suppose this might change for different users, or even just be a single choice for each user?). The application UI specifics are then loaded into the flex app and the UI reconfigured. 2) A flex front end loads a menu (as before) but instead of reconfiguring the UI, executes a separate pre-compiled swf that implements the appropriate UI. The pre-compiled swf would have been created when the desktop app generated the configuration info, it would then translate the generated configuration to mxml, invoke the compiler to generate the swf and add the swf reference to the list of apps offered to the user. Both these options would provide a fairly seamless experience for the user, with the only delays being experienced (not by the end user) when generating a new UI using the desktop app. Paul - Original Message - From: Jeremy Merritt To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Sent: Wednesday, August 30, 2006 1:08 AM Subject: Re: [flexcoders] Architecture question Thanks for the input Paul.The desktop application is a tool to build dynamic models of systems and author an interface for others to interact with the model. The interface consist of input objects, (sliders, knobs, input fields, etc), and outputs like graphs and table. A dashboard or sorts to run the simulation. If an author of such models wishes to share the model with others, currently they need to direct the user to download a "player" version of the software to interact with the model. The application we want to build will allow the author to upload their work to a website where they can share the interface of their model with others. An online "player", if you will, that will only require the end-user to have a web browser with the Flash Player installed. That said, it's not unreasonable to have the author do the conversion from the desktop file format into a SWF in a conversion application. I'm leaning toward this approach, because the final SWF would only need to interact with the web service to actually run the model, and record the end-users input decisions. I hope this clarifies things. I welcome others feedback on the pro/cons of this approach vs a dynamically created interface.Thanks,Jeremy On 8/29/06, Paul Andrews [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: - Original Message - From: Jeremy Merritt To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Sent: Tuesday, August 29, 2006 10:16 PM Subject: [flexcoders] Architecture question Hi all,I would like some feedback from the group collective about the approach I'm thinking about taking to implementing an application using Flex for the UI.There is an existing desktop application and the goal of the new application is to be able to run the files created by the desktop app in a web browser. We've already got the guts of the desktop app implemented as a web service -- now we need to add UI. So here is the question: the files output by the desktop app have XML that marks up the interface, complete with x and y coordinates. What would work best? - To have a generic MXML file that uses ActionScript to parse the XML and create the components needed for the UI on the fly and lay them out according to the XML markup - or-- To create a conversion utility that creates an MXML file based on the desktop app's XML and then invoke the Flex compiler to output an SWF. This approach would require me to redistribute the Flex SDK, which seems to be okay according to the license. I'm leaning toward the latter option as it puts the burden of figuring out the layout of the UI and all that jazz on the conversion utility. The resultant SWF would then just communicate with the web service and run the app. What are your thoughts on this? Well, I'm really curious as to what it is that needs a dynamic interface to be built like this. My first thought was(as you suggest) to go with an xml transformation to mxml if the UI doesn't need to be rebuilt every single time, but I'm wary about what the user experience would be - there would be a delay in doing the transformation and then compiling then invoking a swf. There may be a better user experience by running a swf, then reading and interpreting the xml. In the second situation, there's no recompile andtransformation overhead. Essentially your application is reading an xml configuration file from the web servi

It really depends on the nature of the app and just how precise you need the numbers to be. These situations are where a properly abstracted business logic layer comes in handy. When fully seperated from the display layer, all the calculations take place in a single language/platform and all precisions issues can be dealt with at one time, hopefully in a single place in the code. Depending on the nature and purpose of the app that kind of precision may not be required, but it still makes it a lot easier to fix precision issues when they come up if your logic is all handled in one place. I guess what I'm saying is it depends on the app. ;-) You are absolutely right. I've seen this problem (years ago) on an application where the UI was client server and the reporting was done separtely on the server (different software to the client). It can be rather problematic seeing one thing on screen and something different in a printed invoice or report (no matter how small the difference). For some reason the customer/users start losing faith in the software..

[flexcoders] Cainrgorm/Flex 2 document
Hi, I've just been told of a document ( http://www.digimmersion.com/support/Flex%20UI%20Design%20For%20Cairngorm.pdf ) describing one way to go with Cairngorm/flex when developing applications. It might be interesting for those finding their feet with Cairngorm and/or Flex 2. The document does describe a process that includes using the visio template that they sell. Either way, I don't think it matters much - I found it an interesting read and anyone can pick up or ignore any of the techniques described. I should say now that I have no connection with digimmersion (www.digimmersion.com) except as a happy customer. That's it.

I'm a rookie about Flex. Can I connect my Flex 2 application to my Access Database on the server? No and Yes. Flex does not have any facilities for accessing databases directly. Server-side software is required for the Flex client to communicate with. The server side software could be Java, PHP, ASP, RoR, a web service, etc returning data to the Flex Client and interacting with the database. So yes, you could access Access using flex2, but only by writing a server-side software layer to do that interaction for Flex2. Flex doesn't do direct database access.

This TitleWindow has a ProgressBar in it. The ProgressBar's indeterminate is bound to the visibility (you don't want it playing while the window is invisible; takes up resources). You can then do: WaitWindow.showProgress(Loading...); Inside, it'll create a popup if none exists, and put the text in there. It's modal by default. You can then later go: WaitWindow.remove(); And if one exists, it'll remove it. Subsequent calls to showProgress merely update the text. You can use this for changed commands. Are modal windows really a good way to go with this? It seems to me to be a step backward when you are stopping the user from doing anything whilst data is loading. What happens if the load is particularly slow, fails, or was accidentally initiated and the user changes their mind?

Subject: [flexcoders] Can someone explain this code, its related to
Cairngorm?
Hi,
I am trying to understand the ModelLocator and how Cairngorm works.
I have been reading, but I think I need some additional information
on the code below if possible.
1. What is the difference between Public function and Public Static
function. I assume Public functions can be called from anywhere in
the application. But what about the public static
When something is declared as static there can only be one class instance.
There's no need to instantiate the class as an object in order to call a
static function or access a public static member.
2. Any info about the ModelLocator would be helpful.
[Bindable]
public class ModelLocator implements
com.adobe.cairngorm.model.ModelLocator
This is the interface the class implements
{
private static var
modelLocator:code.model.ModelLocator;
A class (static) variable for use by a class (static) function.
public static function getInstance() :
code.model.ModelLocator
Call this to get the instance of the ModelLocator.
{
if ( modelLocator == null )
If the ModelLocator has never been instantiated then create it, otherwise
return it.
This inforces that only one ModelLocator instance exists - a singleton.
modelLocator = new
code.model.ModelLocator();
return modelLocator;
}
//---
--
public function ModelLocator()
This is the Class constructor. If this is called and the reference to the
ModelLocator exists then something has gone wrong - the constructor is
called by the static function above. If the constructor is called twice
there's a problem - there can only be one ModelLocator.
{
if ( code.model.ModelLocator.modelLocator !=
null )
throw new Error( Only one
ModelLocator instance should be instantiated );
}
//---
--
public function initialise() : void
{
}
Thanks,
Malik
Hope that helps

But i dont want to use an array. I would like to create those vars on the
fly.
I don't really see what the difference would be apart from the syntax.
Referring to myVar1.. myVar10 will still mean that you have to fabricate
the name dynamically. There's really no difference between doing that and
having myVar[1].. myVar[10], or the altenatives mentioned by others.
Why do you want to do this specifically this way?

[flexcoders] A general Flex application deployment question..
My wife works in education and her school subscribes to a remote service that supplies web based information via the internet. When it works they love it but it's gotten a pretty awful nickname for the times it doesn't or is just plain slow. The important point here is that it's a good application, supplied from a remote server, but seen as unreliable either due to internet connectivity problems or speed. Forgetting the speed problem (there's usually ways to sort that out), I wondered how people are using Flex as a remotely served application. Are there good strategies to mitigate connection problems and how do companies react to the idea of remotely served applications that are important/critical to the business? Is the critical desktop application where Flex cannot go (except perhaps by in-house intranet)?

I dont quite understand. Arent *all* flex applications remotely served? Isnt that what it means to have an application on the internet? Perhaps you could explain what scenario you are thinking about where a flex app isnt remote? RegardsHank Hi Hank, The scenario I was thinking about primarily is where applications are served on an intranet. In this case the health of the intranet and any server connected to it is usually/often under the jurisdiction of the company using the application, so any infrastructure problems are, in the main, in-house. A web application may then be very similar to a desktop one, because desktop applications in a company environment are often reliant on a healthy network/servers in order to function (network shares, database connectivity, network security, etc.). In this way, intranet deployed Flex applications have very similar deployment risks/vulnerabilities to desktop apps (but none of the desktop installation hassle). All this contrasts with loading a Flex App from a remote server where you may not have control of the infrastructure between the desktop and remote server, neither may you have control over the remote server and it's local infrastructure. I hope that explains my view a bit better.

Re: [Junk E-Mail - MED] [flexcoders] A general Flex application deployment question..
Hank, Your comments are perfectly reasonable (and I'm not sure that any answer would be satisfying). I've spent most of my life working in large company/corporate environments. From my experience, some companies will embrace the trend we've been talking about and have no problem with infrastructure (as you say). These companies weren't the focus of my question. Next come large companies for which infrastructure may or may not be there (I have worked on very large projects where the only link to a customer site has been via dial-up). Even large companies might not embrace the trend, but might have been won over by our flexcoder friends. Lastly, and probably the real focus of my query is putting Flex into a company that doesn't have a big budget IT department or infrastructure, and here there are the barriers I talked about - loss of connectivity (and functionality) of a business critical App. Some of our flecoder friends might have some interesting ideas/stories here.

I realize that my answer isnt exactly what you want to hear, but my experience is that there is not much of an issue and there are few problems with company's implementing remote applications.

Re: [flexcoders] Flex Pricing question
So does an intel "two-in-one" processor still count as a single CPU? Paul - Original Message - From: Nick Collins To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Sent: Saturday, July 22, 2006 5:30 PM Subject: Re: [flexcoders] Flex Pricing question One application means one flex application. So if you develop something in Flex 2, once you compile it it becomes a Flex application. One application means you can have one such application running FDS.However you can still have as many applications on a server as you want if they're not using FDS.

As far as that goes, the Eclipse Plugin IS Flexbuilder, as Flex Builder is really eclipse streamlined and with a different splash screen. In fact, it's the same installer and you choose which you want to install. As far as Flex Data Services, the model is as follows:Express: free but limited to 1 application on a 1 CPU server, no concurrent user limitDepartmental: $6000 per CPU, unlimited applications, CPUs limited only to what you've paid for, 100 concurrent user limit Enterprise: MSRP $20,000 per CPU, unlimited applications, CPUs limited only to what you've paid for, no concurrent user limit (per Matt's comment, nobody pays list for this but they have to have a number as a starting point) On 7/21/06, Umesh Garg [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, Is the Eclipse plug-in for the Flex-builder free orI have to pay for it.

Well, in that case why you would unsubscribe is beyond me. You can just filter the flexcoder stuff into a seperate folder - always there as a reference if need be and you might see something interesting if you dip in.

Re: [flexcoders] OT: average cost for an SDK?

Ok, so this is an OT question, but I thought that the experienced participants in this group would be most likely to have some insight on this question. What do SDKs usually cost? I would assume that it could be anywhere from free to really expensive. I am mostly just interested in polling the list to get a bunch of SDK cost numbers so that I can come up with a median number. Anyone ever worked with an SDK? What did it cost you (if anything)? What's the point of a median number? As you said anything from free to $$.
