Re: [Flashcoders] Flash vs. Flex libraries
*goes and tries it* Well, I'll be... Jason - just ignore everything I've said. Seems a lot has changed since I was originally playing with this - and CS4 has features I hadn't noticed.

I _suspect_ (having had previous bad experiences) that doing things within the _complete_ Flex framework will be difficult/will cause errors. Flex has a lot of managers/singletons which seem to be very greedy, and assume a lot i.e. assume some Flex startup code is called up front and assume things are initialised in a particular order. Definitely worth trying, though!

[Flashcoders] SWX 2.00 Released
A new version of SWX has been released! SWX is a Flash RPC that assembles the result on SWF format. The project includes an AS2 and AS3 compiler, developed in pure PHP. With a very simple usage, the same code works on AS2, AS3 and Flex. Example: // On the server we have a class /swx/services/Simple.php with an addNumbers method. // Usage: swx.serviceClass.method(args:Array, [resultHandler:Function], [debug:Boolean]) import org.swxformat.*; var swx:SWX = new SWX(); swx.gateway = http://www.swxformat.org/php/swx.php;; swx.Simple.addNumbers([1,4], resultHandler); function resultHandler(e:Object) : void { trace(The result is: + e.result); } More Info: http://code.google.com/p/swx-format/ ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
Re: [Flashcoders] Are you waiting ages for your copy of CS4?
Thanks for the optimism, Weyert. No, Adobe has twice 'lost' my fax, and my email of the scanned document required to do a crossgrade (the letter of software destruction) has been 'in processing' for over three weeks. I had one Adobe representative lie to me and tell me that the product had been shipped, just to get me off the phone. Then I found out that he was lying, and pretty much nothing has happened. I have complained, I have written and called numerous times, and they won't ship it, nor will they refund our money. Very much at a loss as to why this is happening. I thought perhaps if others have the same problem it could explain this mysterious behavior. Perhaps its just a personal grudge because I call too much.

Hi, Sorry to be slightly off-topic, but I am forced to extreme measures. I have been waiting since late October for my copy of CS4 Design Premium to ship. We have been told its 'in processing' and all number of things. I've even been told its been shipped by one representative, even though that was a complete lie. I'm pretty sure there is something going on. It shouldn't take two months to ship out a cd, and they won't refund our money. Does this sound like you? Please email me on or off list...

I've had CS4 shipped within the last month without a hitch. (UK store...) Ian On Wed, Dec 24, 2008 at 4:37 PM, Chris zomgfore...@gmail.com wrote: Thanks for the optimism, Weyert.

Re: [Flashcoders] Are you waiting ages for your copy of CS4?
Oh yeah, that can be problematic. I have a US copy of CS4 and tried to request a mediakit here in Europe. Impossible because the North American version is not supported here... Really nice :/ Adobe US promised to send a media kit I haven't received it yet. ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
