FlexJS in an 'alpha' level technology. That's why its version number is something like 0.0.1 or 0.0.2. As such, it won't have every feature of the current FlexSDK, and may never have every feature as some features will be nearly impossible to make work efficiently in JavaScript, especially in IE8.
It might be worth your while to read up on some of the other wiki articles on FlexJS. Start here: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/FLEX/FlexJS Basically FlexJS is not a magic bullet that will take an existing Flex app and make it run without Flash. It is not intending to emulate Flash in the browser. Instead, it is a new framework designed to run well in JS. It should have most, but not all, of the major concepts from Flex (states, binding, mxml). But you will have to do some work to get an existing app to run. So, create a test project without DCD support to try to get DataBindingTest to run. And yes, you will need to use the new UI widgets for now. -Alex From: V Chandrasekhar <shake...@yahoo.com<mailto:shake...@yahoo.com>> Reply-To: V Chandrasekhar <shake...@yahoo.com<mailto:shake...@yahoo.com>> Date: Monday, June 16, 2014 10:55 AM To: aharui <aha...@adobe.com<mailto:aha...@adobe.com>>, "dev@flex.apache.org<mailto:dev@flex.apache.org>" <dev@flex.apache.org<mailto:dev@flex.apache.org>> Subject: Re: [FlexJS] Close, But Still Some Problems My java version is 1.7.0_55.

I get "s:ButtonBar is not defined error". Is this a case of ButtonBar having to be replaced with another control? Thanks for helping me make progress on this effort of using FlexJS. ________________________________ From: Alex Harui <aha...@adobe.com<mailto:aha...@adobe.com>> To: V Chandrasekhar <shake...@yahoo.com<mailto:shake...@yahoo.com>>; "dev@flex.apache.org<mailto:dev@flex.apache.org>" <dev@flex.apache.org<mailto:dev@flex.apache.org>> Sent: Monday, June 16, 2014 1:07 PM Subject: Re: [FlexJS] Close, But Still Some Problems Run java –version from the console to make sure you have a recent enough Java 7.
