AW: [flexcoders] Interesting new product for Flex

[Sven Claar]

..and they definitly used the words „Macromedia Flex” on there site ;)   Dirk and I will meet the force4 team on the CeBIT and we will certainly write a couple of articles in the consequence to this.   @Dirk: I hope this is also in your sense *g   Cheers, Sven   Von: Dirk Eismann [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Gesendet: Montag, 28.

The Swing-like app you mention is a standalone tool that does all the magic (creating MXML, AS and Java files from model files) plus it provides a WYSIWYG editor that allows to create Flex application by drag & drop operations (i.e. mapping some server side data object to a data grid).   I haven't used it yet but they showcased their product to us some days ago.   Dirk. -----Original Message----- From: Robert Brueckmann [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, February 28, 2005 2:26 PM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: RE: [flexcoders] Interesting new product for Flex I’m a little confused about what it is they’re offering.  Are they developingan application for you in Flex?  Nowhere on their site do they actually use the words Macromedia Flex when talking about the applications they’re building…it appears once in one of their QuickTime slides as an image plucked from the Macromedia website and that’s it…they reference ActionScript and MXML but never Flex, but it’s clearly what they’re using in their RIA examples they have on their site, yet all their examplesin their slides show a Swing-like application.  Very confusing.  What is the trial application you download from them?  How they charge so cheaply for a Flex-built application?  It was my understanding you have to owna license per application if you’re a contracting company that builds these Flex apps for your customers… Robert L.

Beside the fact that our customer is not very IT experienced we searched for a product which does not require much IT expierence on our side either. What we found is Force4 on www.more4flex.comwhich completly satisfies our requirements. It seems to be very new and wehad our first tests with a Beta Version which already run stable. Now the final version is available and they have improved a lot (and also changed alot :) compared to the beta Version. Does someone else has heard of this product or has any expierence with it?
