Hi, I try to find some information about MXML compilation at runtime on a Java based server.
My goal is to create a CMS/eCommerce solution based on a Java core and a Flex front-end. You can find more informations on the wiki of the Igenko project : http://code.google.com/p/igenko/ The architecture of this project will be : - A Java server core based on Tomcat, Spring, Hibernate, GraniteDS - Natively designed to store content in a JSR 170 Java Content Repository (Jackrabbit) - Workflow management (JBoss JBPM) - A Flex Backoffice, with a WYSIWYG site designer - One or more Flex public websites, dynamically generated from content and layout stored in the repository. I know that Flex Data Services provide runtime compilation of MXML (http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/201/html/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhelp.htm?context=LiveDocs_Book_Parts&file=compiledeploy_142_11.html), but I want to build and Open Source solution ready for production without having to pay. The guy behind GraniteDS (an open source implementation of Flex Data Service) did a first attempt to have runtime compiler for MXML, as you can read on this post : http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/graniteds/message/192 Another solution is also to dynamically create UI with AS3 from a custom xml (not mxml) like it was proposed on this post (http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/message/93086), but I think runtime compilation of MXML should be a better solution in my case. I would appreciate any ideas or feedbacks on this subject Regards, Sébastien Deleuze
