Re: [flexcoders] Books - Flex
Hi Gustavo, well, that highly depends on what are your immediate needs for this knowledge and how much time you have. Others here will advise you to simply look for internet tutorials, which are indeed great and enough. But I just like to buy and read books :) Right after I found out that I would need to learn flex, first book I read was Learning Flex 3 http://oreilly.com/catalog/9780596517328/, in my opinion it's the best book for absolute beginners, covers all the important fundaments. I read it within a week, and soon after I was able to do some tinkering in some projects at my job. After this, I've read AdvancED Flex 3http://www.friendsofed.com/book.html?isbn=9781430210276, also a very good one in my opinion. From then on I pretty much stood with internet resources. Specially in light of the fact that there's no books on BlazeDS, red5, especific frameworks, or many other technologies you may need to use. Att, Leonardo 2009/5/6 axcdnt axc...@gmail.com Hi people, My name's Gustavo and I'm new on Flex. I'd like to know your opinion about good books I can buy. Thank you!

Re: [flexcoders] Books Flex and Action Script
Kumar, I find having the product documentation indispensable. You can get printed and bound copies of 4 of the books for $50. I highly recommend it. Printed versions of the Flex 2 doc set can now be purchased for $50 online at: https://store1.adobe.com/cfusion/store/index.cfm?category=/Applications /FlexwithChartingNR=0#view=ols_prodcategoryOID=1579184 The manuals included in this documentation set include the following 4 books: - Developers Guide (printed in 2 volumes)http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flex/2/docs/Part2_DevApps.html - Building and Deploying Flex Applicationshttp://livedocs.macromedia.com/flex/2/docs/Part7_Build_Deploy.html - Creating and Extending Flex Componentshttp://livedocs.macromedia.com/flex/2/docs/Part3_CreateComps.html - Getting Started with Flex 2http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flex/2/docs/Part1_GetStarted.html hth, g On 11/15/06, KP [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Can some one suggest some good books Available in Flex2.0 and Action Script3.0?
