current Ruby programmer. Looking forward to share experience and
knowledge in this board.
I'm in the very early stages of building a rather big Flex
application. The application should be robust and easy to extend thus
I've tried to build it with Cairngorm.
Cairngorm has a steep learning curve. It's all too
javaish to me. After reading every document I could get my hands on,
I'm finally able to grasp some of it. I've now successfully build
models and VOs and controllers for a login system. The Views are also
in place. However, I can't find a good way to control/switch Views.
Recently I took a glance at NoteTag. NoteTag solves the problem by
uing ViewStack. I'm still not quite satisfied with the approach.
Without further studying, it would seem that I can't use
transitions with ViewStacks. Flex sells due it's sexyness and I don't
want to miss the effects.
I almost gave up on using Cairngorm due to this problem and I can't
seem to find a solution. I'm new to AS and Flex anyway. There's
ViewLocator and ViewHelper, but reading the NoteTag comments it's not
really needed at all. There must me some magic part of Cairngorm that
reacts to changes and does all the viewchanging and comman calling. I
like the rails approach where the action is optional.
Are there any simplier (micro)frameworks for Flex than Cairngorm? Or
rather, could you please tell me how you use/switch views in your flex
applications.
Any other tips would also be welcome. I'm merely beginning mya RIA
journey.
