Re: [jQuery] What is the status on the Ext port?

2007-03-05 Thread John Resig
Ext 1.0 Alpha 2 is already running on jQuery:
http://www.yui-ext.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3084

We're working to make some improvements to jQuery to better handle the
demanding animations that Ext requires. But yeah, you can begin using
it now! We were waiting for Jack to make an official announcement, but
it doesn't seem to have come out yet - so we may just announce this
officially, anyway.

That rules - thanks John ;)

It would be most helpful if there was some location, either in this list or
on the main site, that listed timelines for all of these major releases -
1.1.3, ext, form validation, etc. so we could plan better.  The rewrite I'm
doing is a 6-9 month project and knowing what I will have available would be
immensely helpful.

BTW, you might ask him rename the ext plugin in accordance with the jquery
plugin naming conventions ;)

Re: [jQuery] What is the status on the Ext port?

2007-03-05 Thread Daemach

I'm having trouble finding some examples on how this library works - in the
documentation he has function/object references and demos but no
examples/tutorials.  I hate to be the one that asks this, but can you point
us to a few get-started quickly areas?  I learned jQuery in about a week
with all of the excellent tutorials/example code available but I'm not
finding the same level of support over there :/

Re: [jQuery] What is the status on the Ext port?

2007-03-05 Thread Glen Lipka

Daemach*,* Me too.  The EXT project is very much in Technical Preview
mode.  They made it clear to me, after some squeaky wheeling on my part,
that they *are* in progress building out documentation, tutorials, etc.
They asked that I(We) be patient.

Nothing is there now, but they said alot will live here eventually:
http://www.extjs.com/

However, the level of support HERE is awesome.  I imagine that once the EXT
project is ported, that the best place to ask questions about it will be
right here.  You will notice that a ton of the questions now are related to
plugins, so it shouldn't be any different.

Last question - it looks like the ext port is just using jQuery for the
mechanics of ext itself.  Are there plans to port the ext functions to
jQuery syntax?

Re: [jQuery] What is the status on the Ext port?

2007-03-05 Thread Brian Miller
Given that it would be Jack's call, I'd say no.  Ext has a very Java-like
OO design.  It would be hard work to squeeze what he's doing into jQuery
calling conventions.

That doesn't rule out Jack surprising us and doing all that work anyway. 
But, that's not where I'd put my money if I were a betting man.  :)

That also doesn't rule out a plugin-for-the-plugin that simply gives you a
new interfafce on the calls.  But, someone here would have to do that
after the port is complete.
