Hello, We are now making our
final report about our project, castingoffice.net, to deliver on faculty. We
would like to add some external opinions about our work on the report. We have
already some opinions from modeling agencies, but we would like some “technical”
opinions, especially from the community. What we are talking
about, is one or two sentences that will appear on the end of the report
delivered to our teachers. Something like: "Bethesda has gone and created a
masterpiece. This is more than the best role-playing game of our times. It's
the best one we've ever seen." - PC Zone - May
2006 But more appropriate
and realistic, of course! (Bad opinions are welcome too!). To access the application,
use the following data: User: osflash Pass: test This account is
limited: you do not have permissions to change any information on screen. If
you would like to try to make changes, please send me a mail, and I’ll
create an individual account. You can send your opinion
to my mail box, to avoid disturbing the osflash mailing list. We will be very
grateful, this is very important to us. Thank you all! J João Saleiro From:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf
Of João Saleiro Hello, Following the ARP success stories, but
considering that not only ARP, but all the OS technologies we’ve used are
responsible for this story, I’ve decided to tell our story at osflash mailing
list. :o) I use Flash since 2001, and from the very
beginning I’ve felt that Flash would represent a turning point on what we
call an “application” and how we experience the web. This year,
2006, I’m finishing my graduation on Computers and Telecommunications
Engineering at ISCTE, Portugal, and I’ve proposed as my final graduation
project the development of a RIA for managing fashion modeling agencies –
requested by a (probably future) client. I have a colleague working in this
with me, and on March we’ve finished the SRS. We were using the Flash IDE, but at 29th
March,2006 I’ve seen a post on the king Aral Balkan’s site,
titled “Open Source Flash Case Study for TradingPost.com.au”.
Quoting: “In the study, Edwards mentions how their use of open source
tools saved them over 110 hours in compile time”. I’ve got curious
and started investigating on open source flash technologies. Today, after two months, I’m proud to
present an almost finished prototype of our application, at http://www.castingoffice.net . After
cleaning for bugs, the current version is for presenting at faculty on July,
and the final version of the application will only be finished on October.
Probably the application will be a bit slow depending on your internet
connection, but it is intended to be run on a LAN, so connection speed will not
be a problem. To login into the application, you can use
the following account: User: osflash Pass: test I’ve removed this account server side
permissions for uploading and deleting images, and sending SMS. To change the
language to English, just mouse over where it says PT, on the right top corner.
I alert you that it is not fully localized, so there might be some strings that
won’t change to English yet. I also alert you to the fact that this
is only a prototype, so the application is not fully functional, and there
might be some bugs and interface improvements missing. We’ve used: MTASC AMFPHP Eclipse+ASDT+ANT+AnyEdit ASWING ARP + extensions (Herreman’s
Configuration and Locale; Grant Davies’ Command,System Controller and
ServiceDelegate; and some modifications we’ve made) PHPThumb PHP MySQL We have also used (not open-source): Flash 8 IDE ServiceCapture (trial, until it expired! L L) Navicat MySQL Client Some interesting features: -
Intuitive IDE, with usability
in mind; -
Application can send mass SMS; -
The search is very fast, and
sensible; -
Automatic synchronization of
models with the server; -
The look and feel; I hope you like it (opinions are very
welcome)… if you do, our teachers will surely like too! (as we hope
so) ;). But the most important.. THANK YOU OSFLASH,
THANK YOU!!! J J J João Saleiro PS: Once you go ‘osflash’, you
never return |
