Yeah when I was speaking about a backend I didn't mean as verbose as the js
backends. I just meant when compiling for say Feathers, why have code even
close to anything Flex SDK. There is a line between MXML AST and Flex
styles, effects, design layer... ehe...
The problem as you have stated is the

Well, better abstraction is probably always good. I don't k

Alex, I think you have known me long enough o see where I am headed with
this. I agree with everything you have said and it's more of a conceptual
issue with me right now. I have definitely proven to myself that once I
figure out the actual problem I can usually solve it pretty quick.
I guess it's

I think that's the key. You can continue to have fork

Do you mean work overhead? That would be a one time thing, right?
Or runtime overhead? I doubt if porting over stuff to
That's a valid approach as well, but probably has the overhead of wrapping
a lot of their classes to conform to IUIBase. You would probably get a lot
of other things like Binding and States for free though.

Hey Om,
This is all purely hypothetical in my head right now so I may be missing
something as well but the first goal is to use Feathers out right, that
means hooking into Josh's classes. He does use a Bootstrap class to start
the app and that is what you are talking about with Application, that i

If I may, there might be a better approach by just doing it within the
FlexJS framework. You should be able to create a
org.apache.flex.starling.Application.as class where a starling display list
is used instead of the regular display list. You can follow the pattern
that the org.apache.flex.jque
Hmm, interesting. There are a couple things here I misinterpreted from my
journey through the code a couple years ago.
It's great to hear that there are no dependencies, I think one major thing
Josh had to do was mangle how Event was handled since MXMLC required
flash.events.Event for bindings.

I don't know what Josh did to MXMLC to get it to work for
Starling/Feathers. I have encouraged him in the past to try to work
directly with the Falcon output. IMO, MXMLC should be abandoned.
Falcon supposedly has no real ties to any particular ActionScript
framework. MXMLC generated code that e
Would I even need to fork it?
I mentioned to Josh that I use MXML and Feathers extensively for these
audio apps I am about to release on Android which means I have a high stake
in the tech at the moment.
That tinkerer side of me feels I could do something about this but I am at
a loss of what I n
