A cake decorater is asking about a web based app for designing cakes. It's a drawing app with a twist. He's found a desktop app in C# that he wants to port to Java for the web. I'm trying to convince him that Java for this is overkill and he should Actionscript. Am I right, or would it be relatively easy to port C# to Java. Are there any examples of this type of drawing app he could look over? Weldon MacDonald
You're probably going to write from scratch either way, it wont be a 'port'. You can look at the source code to the C# for ideas on how to do things, but the architechure is different enough that you aren't really going to be able to reuse anything. Most types of drawing are pretty easy to do in Flash, and the user experience tends to be better as well -- (more people have flash installed already, no 10 second hang while the JVM loads up, etc etc). -David R _______________________________________________ [email protected] To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
