RE: [flexcoders] Flex Deployment Best Practices

[Matt Chotin]

The modules will help reduce your app and can be used to help reduce break the framework up as well so that only pieces that are needed will be in modules that you’re using.  We will have improved support + docs for that in the next release.  We are also working on some ideas/documentation for breaking the framework up a little more.  With that said, if you are building a single app, you won’t get much benefit from an RSL.  Only if your app is truly big, then it’s the module approach you want more than RSL.  RSLs come into play when you start having multiple apps that re-use the same code.   Matt   From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of hank williams Sent: Monday, October 23, 2006 1:57 PM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [flexcoders] Flex Deployment Best Practices   I have been glancing at Roger's blog, for the last month or two, but the one thing I am not clear on is whether the work that he is doing reduces the all or nothing nature of the actual flex framework? I am very clear on how to modularize my own code, but if the flex framework's dependecies are such that for anything meaningful you need to load 300-400k of library then none of my modularization makes much difference because my code is small relative to the size of the library. While he acknowledges the problem, I can't find where Roger discusses much about whether all of the flex framework really needs to be dragged in the way it is now, and if his new stuff helps to fix this.

I have tried to modularize my components as much as possible. What I'm looking for is some best practices on when/why you create RSLs, SWFs, etc to "break up" your application so it runs efficiently.  I know there are some trade-offs here... just looking for some reference guidelines for the "ilities" ( scalability, maintainability, etc.).
