Hi,
I have been involved in .NET C# development for quite a few years and only recently been introduced to Flex. Well, the introduction was enough to convince me that this is where our UI development efforts need to lie. Since this realisation, we have developed a set of templates that will generate the .net c# data access and business logic classes, based on the NHibernate framework. It then generates all flex AS3 classes (conforming to the Cairngorm architecture) - i.e. VO objects, core views, delegate classes, service class (weborb). it will even copy over and register the weborb and cairngorm SWC librarys. Essentially all we need to do now is define the database and from this we can create an entire .net back-end and flex front end, complete with core classes, mxml pages (logins, lists etc). We are thinking of releasing this as a free codesmith project so if you're interested let me know Miika Makinen-2 wrote: > > Hi all, > > We have been testing Flex as a front end for .Net application using > Fluorine > as a gateway between the two worlds.
