Flex Builder on Ubuntu Hardy 8

01/29/2008 05:02 pm by sephiroth.it - flash & php in ubuntu

I don't know exactly why, but the first time I found the link of an article about the first Ubuntu 8 hardy alpha release I couldn't wait anymore and so I immediately upgraded my distribution..
I can't resist to alphas and betas! damn!

Anyway, a part the obvious problems related to an alpha version, such as video card, mouse etc.. the most frustrating thing was the fact my eclipse installation was corrupted.. I reinstalled eclipse again and downloaded again flex builder for linux.
But when trying to install Flex builder I received a really nonsense java exception error, which more or less was:

xcb_xlib_unlock: Assertion `c->xlib.lock' failed

After some google searches I found out the solution for my problems ( I'm posting here in case someone else is so crazy to upgrade his ubuntu version with a flex builder installed into ):

In a terminal window:

sudo sed -i 's/XINERAMA/FAKEEXTN/g' /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.04/jre/lib/i386/xawt/libmawt.so

Then restarting flex builder bin installation everything worked again and now I'm happy with my flex builder linux version again :)

AIR Inspector and Aptana Update

01/28/2008 04:51 pm by Kevin Hoyt in AIR

Two very quiet, yet very important announcements came last week for developers using Adobe AIR. The first is a new “Introspector” for AIR developers using Ajax - think Firebug, but for AIR. The second is an update to Aptana Studio (1.1 required) which provides support for AIR Beta 3. Here’s a quick look at both [...]

What an amazing 2007!

01/28/2008 12:34 am by Seb Lee-Delisle in Actionscript

Let’s face it, 2007 was pretty spectacular, in fact it was SO spectacular that it’s taken me most of January to write it all down… We flew straight into ‘07 with a massive 9 level platform game, called Extreme Pamplona. It was so big, it took 15 people 2 months to make it, we even [...]

FDT AS3 Application sdk change with no effect

01/25/2008 09:52 pm by wezside in Actionscript

I filed this bug this morning and thought it deserves a post as it took me quite a while to figure out how to do this. Now I know you won't necessarily be migrating for Flex 2 SDK to Flex 3 but you might and if you do please read on.

Here is the official bug. In a nutshell the problem is when you compile a project using the FDT Application features for AS3 projects with the Flex 2 SDK. I then migrated to the Flex 3 Beta SDK and the project was still compiling using the Flex 2 SDK. WTF?

Adding Multiple Children in a Flex State

01/25/2008 05:23 pm by Danny Patterson in General

Many times I've had to add multiple children in a Flex state. Take the following simple example: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="vertical"> <mx:Label id="topLabel" text="Top" /> <mx:Button label="showChildren" click="currentState='children';" /> <mx:states> <mx:State name="children"> <mx:AddChild relativeTo="{topLabel}" position="after"> <mx:Label text="third" [...]

After straight segments extrusion it was time to play with the rounded stuff. This Lathe class allows you to rotate 2 or more 3D points arround the axis of your choice or using an offset if needed, you can add more rotations in order to generate springs, phonecords or screws... and like the segment extrude class [...]

Example: Reflection

Click the pic to activate (pretty cpu intesive, sorry :/ ) I’m going for the “glossy piano” reflection: Here’s the general idea: private function createBitmapViewport():void { bitmapViewport = new BitmapViewport3D(); bitmapViewportMaterial = new BitmapViewportMaterial( bitmapViewport ); bitmapViewportMaterial.precise = true; bitmapViewportHolder = new Plane( bitmapViewportMaterial, 4000, 2000 ); bitmapViewportHolder.y = -1000; bitmapViewportHolder.z = -1000; bitmapViewportHolder.pitch( 40 ); scene.addChild(bitmapViewportHolder); bitmapViewportCamera = new Camera3D(); bitmapViewportCamera.z = -1500; } private function render( e:Event ):void { thing.roll( [...]

Flex 3 Localization

01/24/2008 09:16 pm by Christophe Herreman in ActionScript

With Flex 3 comes the ability to do runtime localization. Compared to Flex 2 where you actually had to recompile your application for each locale, you can now have one version of your application that contains different resource bundles. Today I implemented this in one of the applications we are working on and ran into some [...]

Flex Tip 5: Using Runtime CSS

01/24/2008 07:02 pm by Adrian Aioanei in Flex

On large scale projects that will be deployed on more than just one location it is a constant need for re-skinning the application. This applies mostly to “embedding” projects, that is projects that will need to be integrated (embedded) into an already done site, with a custom template. First solution would be duplicate the project each [...]
