Re: adobe flex vs apache flex

2013-08-14 Thread maven apache
@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?

 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.

  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.

Thanks all your guys.

Does it mean that the different IDE will generate the same application
based on a specified Flex SDK?


BTW, it seems that the navigation menu at `flex.apache.org` have some

 Adobe flex was donated to Apache and become open source. Apache flex have
 a lot of additional features and new SDK was already release. You can visit
 their site @ www.flex.apache.org

Thank you, I got it. I will try to enjoy myself with Flex at flex.apache.org.

 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.

Re: adobe flex vs apache flex

2013-08-14 Thread maven apache
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.

 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 ...



question about the flex installer

2013-08-13 Thread maven apache
Hi:

I am new in flex, and I download the Apache Flex® SDK Installer 2.6 .

However I am not exactly sure what does the `Select flash player version`
mean:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/1xmf8j5hyl8yeue/flex.png


Does it mean that if I choose version 11.8, then all the application I
created will be run and only run  on 11.8? People who have flash player
lower than 11.8 will not access my application?


If  this is true, I think choose the latest version is not a good idea.

So I wonder which version is better?
