Hi Alex,
I’ll be waiting for your response. Thanks, Alina From: Alex Harui [mailto:aha...@adobe.com] Sent: Friday, February 16, 2018 2:02 AM To: users@royale.apache.org Subject: Re: Substitutes in Apache Royale Hi Alina, I can't guarantee that you will be in production in six months, but I believe we can help you get to the point where every screen shows up and fills with data and we are fixing bugs in corner cases. We might also be chasing down memory leaks and things like that. My strategy for lots of things is to do the big things first and polish it later. For example, I recently pushed some basic Virtual Item Renderer support for Royale, but I'm pretty sure it will have bugs in corner cases, like deleting things when scrolled to the bottom. But most apps start at the top and it will get you going and we'll fix those corner cases later. I want to finish up some infrastructural things in Royale over the next couple of weeks, then I will adjust the compiler to generate an API report. Once we see what that looks like, I should be able to help take the sample code you provided and make it work in Royale. So maybe in a month or so, you'll see more activity around your code. Right now I need to clean up a few things so we can be more efficient working with you. You won't need an IDE to generate the API report. If you know what compiler settings you are using for your Flex app, you can just run a Royale compiler from the command-line with the same arguments. I believe that we are likely to make compiling your Flex app with the Royale compiler one of the steps in migrating. The Royale compiler will catch some syntax issues that the Flex compiler does not.

You gave me hope that I can achieve my target on time and at least I am working in right direction. At most places I'm using getItemAt(0) to access the element in ArrayCollection. At some places myArrayCollection[0].propertyname to access it If you will modify the Royale compiler, I will definitely try compiling my Flex app with the Royale compiler and generate a report of APIs used. Currently I am using Visual Studio Code and apache royale 0.9.0 release is installed.I will need your guidance which IDE and apache royale release should I use to generate that report.

There will be sorting classes eventually. I think there are two buckets of things that you are going to need: Things we haven't written yet: - DividedBox/Container (mostly done) - Menu/MenuBar - VariableRowHeight - Editable DataGrids - Sorting? Things we have written, but aren't packaged in a way that makes migration easy: - TitleWindow - Canvas - ArrayCollection For ArrayCollection, do you use array indexing (myArrayCollection[0]) or do you access it as getItemAt(0)? You have so many files to port, it is tempting to create a Spark-ish and MX-ish component set. They wouldn't be fully backward compatible but would try to implement the most commonly used APIs. I'm wondering what percentage of Flex APIs you actually used in your app. If I modify the Royale compiler, could you try compiling your Flex app with the Royale compiler and generate a report of APIs used?
