RE: [flexcoders] Java developers: How do you organize your projects?

[Joost Nuijten]

Hi Dave,   I'm doing the following in my projects: - Flex and Java have their own Eclipse instances. I think there's no reason to mingle them. In my projects the role of Java developer and Flex developer are always occupied by two persons.   - We have a seperate server that acts as the release server. The Flex developer is able to test on his local machine. The Java is able to test his work by using test cases with JUnit.   - The interface between Flex and Java is specified by the Java and Flex developer. Based on the specifications a fake facade is created that the Flex developer can use to implement server interaction.   - Meanwhile the Java developer implements the interface. Everytime a stable version becomes available it is published to the central server and a JAR is commited to cvs. The Flex developer can use this JAR to test the interface on his local machine.   - The Java and Flex part are two seperate projects (also in cvs). Projects are merged by committing a stable JAR into the Flex project. The output of the Flex project (including JAR) will be the final product.   Maybe this will help you a bit.   ~Joost Van: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Namens Dave Bobby Verzonden: zondag 6 augustus 2006 23:41 Aan: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Onderwerp: [flexcoders] Java developers: How do you organize your projects? Currently, I have a client-side flex running in Flex Builder stand- alone and a java server-side which is running in Eclipse, eventually deployed to tomcat. Now when I run from my Flex Builder, I can access my tomcat by just saying http://localhost:8080/project/login.html?user=a&pass=b .. but this is not extensible, so the question is how do you physically lay out your projects? .. do you have ant builds that create a war with all the files copied over? .. do you separate your flex builder from eclipse or run them together as flex (plugin) and java (in eclipse) at one time .. if you develop all in one project (java and flex) how do you separate these concerns, for example, flex requires that application mxml be in the root of the project and say cairngorm files would be in root/com/... I need to set this up fast before other developers join the project, appreciate your inputs. Thanks.
