Improving Cairngorm’s ModelLocator Part 4 - The monostate

05/06/2008 09:07 am by Big Room in Flex

In the first article in this ad-hoc series I expressed my desire to replace the Cairngorm developers expressed preference for implementing the ModelLocator as a singleton with an alternative implementation as a monostate. ...

Calculating the ROI for enterprise applications that use Flex 3

05/02/2008 01:14 pm by Marco Casario | RIAvolutionize the web in Flex

Raffaele, my business partner, has published the slides of his presentation at 360Flex. The topic was very interesting because he showed the benefits achieved as a consequence of adopting Flex to re-design an enterprise application. The benefit was measured in terms of the time saved to execute an ordinary operation (cashing a check) by using the Flex re-designed application respect the time that was formerly necessary to execute the same operation by using a "common" Oracle form-based application (simple html using the "traditional" logic of 1 click=1 page).

In version 1.53, you can now add a photo to your profile at The GAE SWF Project Flex sample (and see other user's profiles).

Important Improvements To Adobe Developer Center

04/24/2008 04:05 pm by Ben Forta's Blog in Flex

Yesterday we quietly rolled out two important enhancements to the Adobe Developer Center. The first change is community powered search (you'll see a new search box on the upper right side of the page), which basically means that searches now includes content from a wider array of sources, including community sources like relevant blogs. The second change is that logged in users can now post comments on articles, these comments are posted live immediately, but are also moderated (and will be scrubbed as needed). While these new features are tested and tweaked they'll only be available in the Flex Developer Center. But we'll add these to additional ADC sections in the future.
