Re: [flexcoders] Architecture question
OK, interesting stuff! It's not clear from your description how a given user would choose the right application build for them. I can see two possibilities. 1) A flex front end loads a menu (from a web service) offering a list of application builds to the user (I suppose this might change for different users, or even just be a single choice for each user?). The application UI specifics are then loaded into the flex app and the UI reconfigured. 2) A flex front end loads a menu (as before) but instead of reconfiguring the UI, executes a separate pre-compiled swf that implements the appropriate UI. The pre-compiled swf would have been created when the desktop app generated the configuration info, it would then translate the generated configuration to mxml, invoke the compiler to generate the swf and add the swf reference to the list of apps offered to the user.

My first thought was(as you suggest) to go with an xml transformation to mxml if the UI doesn't need to be rebuilt every single time, but I'm wary about what the user experience would be - there would be a delay in doing the transformation and then compiling then invoking a swf. There may be a better user experience by running a swf, then reading and interpreting the xml. In the second situation, there's no recompile andtransformation overhead.

Re: [flexcoders] Architecture question
So it's like two different things...- Creating UI- Using UI (or Sharing with others ?)I am not sure of the software's work flow, but you can still ship default UI as pre-compiled SWFs along with corresponding UI source XML. You can provide a tool to users, where they can customize/personalize/create UIs, view shared UIs by other users or share their UIs. This tool can probably do the compilation in background. This would be more usable solution, in my opinion. When user enters a tool with a intention to create UIs, s/he aware of the work flow there. Where as many users would probably never create UI except using default ones? So they should not face any delays..

My problem is this: 1) I am retrieving the XML data from a server 2) I need the tilelist to refresh itself (not append) with the returned data even if the data hasn't changed 3) The data does not always change between retrievals which causes havoc in my tilelist.

IE Does FDS crap out if you have more than 1000 mxml files requested by FDS and FDS has to compile them all. The 1000 is just a variable number, it could 100 or million.

Re: [flexcoders] Buffer progress bar for streaming FLV
Hi,bytesTotal and bytesLoaded are used when you use progressive flv download. In case of streaming (via FMS/FCS),your actual file is not downloaded rather bits are streamed over pipeTo show buffer progress, you can use NetStream's bufferLength and bufferTime properties instead of bytesTotal/bytesLoaded. -abdulOn 8/30/06, Chris Simeone [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi All, I've been trying to create a Buffering progress bar for streaming FLV (via FMS) with the mx:videoDisplay component.

[flexcoders] Time calculation oddity
The following code should result in a time of 0ms var d1:Date = new Date(); var d2:Date = d1; var result:Date = new Date(); result.time = d2.valueOf() - d1.valueOf(); The odd thing is that there is a 1 hour difference. The timezoneOffset of d1 and d2 is -120 But the timezoneOffset of result is -60. Why does the result have a different timezoneOffset? Is there another way of calculation time differences?

There's no easy workaround. At one point I had a workaround which essentially involved you copying and pasting some code from the chart source with a line or two of change. That's kind of a sketchy thing to do though, since at that point your mucking with implementation details that are subject to change from version to version.

[flexcoders] Cairngorm / Hibernate Best Practices
Hey everyone, I'm working on a rather large application, and have recently transitioned from using my own Java DAO classes to Hibernate. One screen of the application allows clients to add and modify lists of keywords, along with text ads (FYI, this is a project that interacts with Google AdWords). I had autocommit set to false for my Hibernate DS, but the problem was I had to keep using the ServiceLocator to commit the changes. Hitherto, the application's structure was very strictly tied to Cairngorm's design pattern, but now I'm finding that I'm needing to deviate from it a bit. The problem I'm also having with autocommit set to true is that I'm not receiving back AsyncTokens, and can therefore not deal with conflicts or faults. Is there any method any of you have used to deal with Hibernate, or even Dataservices, with Cairngorm, and what are some of the best practices for using the two together?

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Specifying LineSeries itemRenderer with Actionscript
Well, in theory, we've gone to great lengths (and had long, heated, philisophical 'discussions' (read: knock down drag out fights)) over what the relationship between MXML and actionscript should be. Right now, we try as much as possible to follow a very strict 'no compiler magic' policy...specifically: - there's are simple rules for how an actionscript class's API dictates how it is used in MXML. a developer should be able to look at a snippet of MXML and understand instantly how you would achieve the same thing in Actionscript (and vice versa). - variable references and expressions in MXML should be implemented using binding. That means a developer should be able to look at the MXML and know that if there are curly braces, it's a bit of code, and if there aren't, it's a literal value. - Beyond three or four core language tags (Script, Style, Repeater, Component, ??? ) the compiler should have no special knowledge of MXML other than the simple mapping rules described above. if it's all driven by rules and classes, then it improves the chances you the developer will be able to learn the rules and figure out. What's more, if it's driven by rules and classes, then you can extend the product by writing your own classes that get access to all the same features and functionality our classes do. That's the theory. And the debate continues to this day. As we add more functionality and features to the SDK, it gets very tempting to try and customize the MXML Schema in ways that don't quite follow the basic AS--MXML mapping rules. But so far we're still resisting them. Now one of the downsides of following these 'simple rules' is that at times the MXML for a particular construct or feature becomes much more verbose than we'd like it to be. In those cases, we've got three choices: 1) change the AS API to generate a less verbose MXML syntax. This works in some cases (i.e., the API for constraints was changed between beta 1 and beta 2 for this reason). But sometimes there's just a fundamental conflict between what dictates a good AS API vs. a good MXML syntax. 2) Another option would be to just allow custom syntax that breaks the mapping rules for that particular component. We don't like doing that (see above). 3) A third option is to extend the rules to allow for simplifying the syntax. If the use case your looking at it general enough, and it can be tied to a generic set of inputs (i.e., a particular interface, or base class, rather than a specific component), that can be a generally useful solution. It also has a cost associated with it, and can be abused, so we try and be judicious in how we use it. The more we complexify (? nice word, huh ?) the mappping rules of MXML, the harder it gets to do the translation in your head as you read some markup, and the less benefit we get as described above. So in this case, we decided that the situation was generically useful enough to extend the language. For 'renderer' or 'template' use cases, where you write a component that can be passed another component to instantiate for some sub-part of itself, we wanted to make the markup simple. So here the rule is that when the compiler sees a property of type IFactory, MXML allows two ways of specifying it. The first is just by providing a class name, like so: LineSeries itemRenderer="mx.charts.renderers.DiamondItemRenderer" / In which case the compiler automatically wraps the class in a ClassFactory instance and assigns it. The second is to specify an inline derived component, like so: LineSeries itemRenderer Component DiamondItemRenderer / / In which case the compiler reads the contents of the Component tag as a separate MXML component, creates a new class for it, wraps _it_ in a ClassFactory, and assigns that. So...once you know that rule, it should in theory be straightforward to recognize its use in some MXML or the API documentation and know how you replicate it yourself in AS. In theory ;) So to answer your original question, how are you supposed to figure this out? Well, the answer is you're not. There should be documentation...either showing the specific example of how to set an item renderer on a series from AS, or, even better,describing the general MXML rule so you can abstract the idea and apply it generally. Having said that, I can attest to the vast amount of of information the doc team has to communicate to the flex developer base, and the heroic job they do and have done getting it out. It's an evolving process, and they watch this list for feedback, so things like this that cause difficulty should eventually make their way back into improvements to the doc. Ely.

[flexcoders] Re: CairngormEvent Antipattern
This approach seems like it could be extremely useful for me as I am starting to build a lot of larger projects, but I have a quick comment. Forgive me if I am off base here, but is there a mistake in the code example? I am new to Cairngorm so bear with me for a moment. According to your example, you call the event like so: CODE --- var addEvent : WidgetEvent = new WidgetEvent(WidgetController.EVENT_ADD_WIDGET, widgetVO); dispatchEvent(addEvent); --- But, in the Controller, the EVENT_ADD_WIDGET constant, in keeping with Cairngorm practice, equates to the following string: addWidget So, my question is this, if the WidgetEvent expects a parameter of commandName, which in this case would be addWidgetCommand (Again, assuming you are using best practice), then how does the application call the correct command? Is it because the FrontController automatically maps Events to Commands?

Re: [flexcoders] Re: CairngormEvent Antipattern
The frontcontroller doesn't map events to commands but strings like WidgetController.EVENT_ADD_WIDGET to commands. So any event with a type set to WidgetController.EVENT_ADD_WIDGET, which reaches the frontcontroller, triggers the command, which is bound to the string WidgetController.EVENT_ADD_WIDGET.

According to your example, you call the event like so: CODE --- var addEvent : WidgetEvent = new WidgetEvent(WidgetController.EVENT_ADD_WIDGET, widgetVO); dispatchEvent(addEvent); --- But, in the Controller, the EVENT_ADD_WIDGET constant, in keeping with Cairngorm practice, equates to the following string: addWidget So, my question is this, if the WidgetEvent expects a parameter of commandName, which in this case would be addWidgetCommand (Again, assuming you are using best practice), then how does the application call the correct command?

RE: [flexcoders] Building a chat server over FDS... impossible is nothing??
Just to chime in on this briefly. You can fairly easily build a chat system using FDS without dynamically defined client and server destinations and it is not too much work though it has some limitations in how it will scale if you take the simple approach. I think for Toms particular scale requirements, this approach would not be sufficient but if you are only dealing with a server that has at most a couple of thousand concurrent users, this may well be the easiest and best approach, especially if your app requires some back-end integration. Of course the exact load you could support would vary based on your setup but youd be able to expect a reasonably high volume of messages/second hundreds but probably not multiple thousands. To get extra scale, you have change the messaging topology we use in todays FDS (something that we are considering adding out of the box for a future release). Here is the outline of this approach: - Basically each user could create a Consumer with a subtopic to receive chat messages and presence queries. You could use the IM identity as part of the subtopic name e.g. myIdentity.messages. The client would also send messages to a different subtopic also based on the identity for publishing presence events e.g. myIdentity.presence. When the client connects, it would also send an initial I am available message to the myIdentity.presence subtopic, then would send additional messages such as I am idle as its presence state changes. On the server side, youd have a session destroy listener which would send the final I am disconnected message to this subtopic from server code. If you are using HTTP sessions, you should probably put a timestamp in each presence message and the timestamp for this disconnected message should be the current time minus the session expiration time interval (since that is the time of last request seen by this user when the session expires). Make sure you do not replace a more recent presence event with an older one in case this user has logged on via a different browser in the meantime. - Secondly, to get visibility for other users presence events, the client would make an RPC call to some server component you provide which supplies the client with their buddy list. The consumer would then issue Consumer.subscribe calls for each buddys identitys presence subtopic. Once it had subscribed to all of these, it would send a presence query message to the myIdentity.messages subtopic. In response to a presence query, the client just sends a presence event to its myIdentity.presence subtopic with its current presence state. One other type of message you receive on the myIdentity.messages subtopic would typically be actual IMs. The body or headers of the message can contain things like the thread-id, the sender etc. Youd also use this channel to send other control messages such as an add buddy request has been received. Of course a real IM system requires authentication and access control, buddy list approval but I think you can implement this with these two subtopics per user. One representing data and control messages intended for the client, the other for data and control messages sent by the client. For buddy list approval, you send another control message to the users myIdentity.messages subtopic and the buddy would reply with a control message to the other users theirIdentity.messages channel. You can extend the class flex.messaging.services.messaging.adapters.MessageAdapter and override the allowSubscribe and allowSend methods to add authentication. The scalability is limited in this approach because with the current FDS out of the box messaging topology, every message goes through all servers in the cluster so it will not continue to scale as you add servers. It will work in a clustered environment though and so will provide fault tolerance. It is also possible for you to change the messaging topology with a custom message adapter though now you would be getting into some real coding effort. To do this, you must handle subscriptions yourself by overriding the handlesSubscriptions and then the manage method gets called with the subscribe and unsubscribe messages. I think a more scalable topology for chat would be to broadcast only the subscribe, unsubscribe, and presence change events, then to cache the presence state for all users on all servers. This would add an order of magnitude or two of scalability in an IM system. To get complete scalability, you partition the users using some kind of a hashing scheme.

I am using a repeater to display information from my application.

In the array I have an array object that tells me what side the person was on the file. They are either buyer or seller. The problem I have is if the array object has one person of hte buyer side and one person on the seller side. The repeater displays them both on each side. So if I have Bill Bob on seller side and Jim bob on buyer side the repeater processes it like this Seller SideBuyer Side Bill Bob Bill Bob Jim Bob Jim Bob When it should look like this Seller Side Buyer Side Bill BobJim Bob Can someone give me a bit of insight as to why it would do this.

RE: [flexcoders] Flex 2 patch timeline
Matt or anyone else at Adobe. I agree that the quality of Flex Builder 2 is good . . . . very good . . . . however . . . . I know nothing will probably change since Adobe is the big software company, and I am only a single customer(Flex Builder 2 w/charting), but this position disturbs me. It reminds me of the construction industry when a contractor builds or remodels myhouse. I have paid for the work and I find problems but the contractor is off working on another house and doesn't have the time or resources to fix the problems in a timely manner. To be honest,I could care less about a Mac version . . . . AND I know those wanting a Mac version could care less about a Windows version. So please no bashing from the Mac side. It appears that Adobe has not allocated enough resources to the development team where they can have 2 groups. As I recall, it was said on this forum, soon afterFlex 2 was released the development team received new Macs to begin work on a Mac version. Why did Adobe not already have a plan and resources in place. This type of thing is done all the time. While I do not expect that every single bug be issued a "release patch",it would be very nice and customer friendly to have a bug fix release plan in place and implement that plan. Especially in the first 6-9 months of a major release. I haven't encountered a bug that I know of. But when I do, I willprobably have spent many hours or days thinking I did notwrite the code right only to find out later is was a bug. Wasted time . . . . money. I have said this before, but I would not have a single customer if I told them I could not fix the software they purchased because I was working on another version. I really do not understand why large software companies employ this type of bug fix and update plan. I only hope Adobe will rethink their strategy and implementation of releasing bug fixes.

RE: [flexcoders] Flex 2 patch timeline
Jack- I think you misunderstand what Matt said. He didn't say they aren't working on fixes, he said it hasnt been their top priority. If you have an issue, he recommended you contact their support team. I have said this before, but I would not have a single customer if I told them I could not fix the software they purchased because I was working on another version. Again, its not an issue of not being able to fix bugs, many companies have a process in place to allow for handling their customers needs. In the adobe case, if something isnt working as you would expect, there is the support channel. drop them an email or give them a call, and they can help solve the issue you are having. They are the ones who are best able to determine if you are doing something wrong, or if its a bug in the code which needs to be fixed. I wouldnt be at all surprised if their were a number of minor patches available through the support channels. I dont know that there are, but if I were them, and I had a few fixes to specific bugs that havent been reported by the community at large, but instead by a few customers, I would probably give the fixes as needed, rather than make a whole new big push. Then again, thats just my thought process. Sadly, I dont have a whole support team working for me, so i need to deal with bugs in my code as they crop up.

Re: [flexcoders] Embedding fonts at runtime
I figured out how to use the textformat object. The textformat object does actually work, but a TextField will only retrieve the embeded font if it's parent has previously been sent set the font as a style. So for any component that uses a UITextField, set the fontFamily style of the parent UIComponent to the newly loaded font and then the UITextField should be able to use the font even if fontFamily is subsequently reset. I have no idea why this works, so there may be some improvements to this method.

The issue is that Adobe is fixing the bugs, but not releasing them.Jack,With any big software project, there are **always** bugs. Typically hundreds. You *never* get down to zero and rarely even into the dozens. The question is how many of them are there and how important are they. You cant put a new release out every time there is a bug. So you have to decide when a good time to do it is. If there are major and important bugs to fix, you put a release out. But you cant do that weekly. Thats why its important for them to know if there are any showstopper or really important bugs. So Matt's question was important. Are there any bad bugs that they dont know about? It makes total sense to me, if there are no major bugs, to wait and put out a new release in 4 or 5 months. New releases are organizationally traumatic. And they are also not risk free. It is always possible to introduce new bad bugs while fixing old not so important ones. So waiting a while and being sure everything is right with a full QA cycle is not a bad thing at all. Doing that around a major change like mac support (which will also effect the windows version because its the same codebase) seems like the right thing to do if there are no major problems.

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Specifying LineSeries itemRenderer with Actionscript
Having said that, I can attest to the vast amount of of information the doc team has to communicate to the flex developer base, and the heroic job they do and have done getting it out. It's an evolving process, and they watch this list for feedback, so things like this that cause difficulty should eventually make their way back into improvements to the doc. LOL. Homer's doc was heroic. We're lucky if our stuff gets read. When deciding new doc topics to add, we get ideas from reading this list, the forums, blogs, LiveDocs comments, talking to support, mktg, prod mgmt, eng, qa, and little bit of intuition. You can bet that problems that come up time and again in these places will make their way into the docs. One of the big things that we look at, though, is how much of an edge case each issue might be. If one in a thousand users will encounter a problem with something, then we'll likely write about the issue that 1 in 10 users will encounter first. Doesn't mean we won't get to it, but it might be covered by a Tech Note or some other method before it gets put in the main product documentation. Now, if the doc were a wiki, this topic would already be documented. :) matt horn flex docs -Original Message- From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ely Greenfield Sent: Wednesday, August 30, 2006 12:38 PM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: RE: [flexcoders] Re: Specifying LineSeries itemRenderer with Actionscript Well, in theory, we've gone to great lengths (and had long, heated, philisophical 'discussions' (read: knock down drag out fights)) over what the relationship between MXML and actionscript should be. Right now, we try as much as possible to follow a very strict 'no compiler magic' policy...specifically: - there's are simple rules for how an actionscript class's API dictates how it is used in MXML. a developer should be able to look at a snippet of MXML and understand instantly how you would achieve the same thing in Actionscript (and vice versa). - variable references and expressions in MXML should be implemented using binding. That means a developer should be able to look at the MXML and know that if there are curly braces, it's a bit of code, and if there aren't, it's a literal value. - Beyond three or four core language tags (Script, Style, Repeater, Component, ??? ) the compiler should have no special knowledge of MXML other than the simple mapping rules described above. if it's all driven by rules and classes, then it improves the chances you the developer will be able to learn the rules and figure out. What's more, if it's driven by rules and classes, then you can extend the product by writing your own classes that get access to all the same features and functionality our classes do. That's the theory. And the debate continues to this day. As we add more functionality and features to the SDK, it gets very tempting to try and customize the MXML Schema in ways that don't quite follow the basic AS--MXML mapping rules. But so far we're still resisting them. Now one of the downsides of following these 'simple rules' is that at times the MXML for a particular construct or feature becomes much more verbose than we'd like it to be. In those cases, we've got three choices: 1) change the AS API to generate a less verbose MXML syntax. This works in some cases (i.e., the API for constraints was changed between beta 1 and beta 2 for this reason). But sometimes there's just a fundamental conflict between what dictates a good AS API vs. a good MXML syntax. 2) Another option would be to just allow custom syntax that breaks the mapping rules for that particular component. We don't like doing that (see above). 3) A third option is to extend the rules to allow for simplifying the syntax. If the use case your looking at it general enough, and it can be tied to a generic set of inputs (i.e., a particular interface, or base class, rather than a specific component), that can be a generally useful solution. It also has a cost associated with it, and can be abused, so we try and be judicious in how we use it. The more we complexify (? nice word, huh ?) the mappping rules of MXML, the harder it gets to do the translation in your head as you read some markup, and the less benefit we get as described above. So in this case, we decided that the situation was generically useful enough to extend the language. For 'renderer' or 'template' use cases, where you write a component that can be passed another component to instantiate for some sub-part of itself, we wanted to make the markup simple. So here the rule is that when the compiler sees a property of type IFactory, MXML allows two ways of specifying it. The first is just by providing a class name, like so: LineSeries

RE: [flexcoders] Is this a bug? About Number type.
You presumably meant the result should be 23.7, not 23.8. However, getting 23.703 isn't a bug; you'd get the same answer in other languages like Java and C++. The imprecision is because Number in ActionScript (like float in Java and C++) stores a floating-point value as a binary fraction, not as a decimal fraction. These datatypes use binary fractions because that's how current microprocessors store and manipulate floating-point values. Java solves this problem by having a BigDecimal class whjich can store decimal fractions. In that case, computations are slower because it takes many microsprocessor instructions to do a single operation. The current version of ActionScript doesn't have any decimal fraction datatype, but it is under consideration for a future version of the language. The lack of this feaure comes up about once a week, and some participants on flexcoders have discussed the possibiliy of porting BigDecimal or its equivalent to ActionScript. Perhaps you can simply round your results to the precision you need?

RE: [Junk E-Mail - LOW] RE: [flexcoders] Flex 2 patch timeline
Yes, that is the plan. At the same time the Mac release comes out we will be upgrading the Windows release with bug fixes. Mac and Windows will be synchronized at that point moving forward. Hank has stated my position very nicely with regard to the other points.

I agree that the quality of Flex Builder 2 is good . . . . very good . . . . however . . . . I know nothing will probably change since Adobe is the big software company, and I am only a single customer(Flex Builder 2 w/charting), but this position disturbs me. It reminds me of the construction industry when a contractor builds or remodels myhouse. I have paid for the work and I find problems but the contractor is off working on another house and doesn't have the time or resources to fix the problems in a timely manner. To be honest,I could care less about a Mac version . . . . AND I know those wanting a Mac version could care less about a Windows version. So please no bashing from the Mac side. It appears that Adobe has not allocated enough resources to the development team where they can have 2 groups. As I recall, it was said on this forum, soon afterFlex 2 was released the development team received new Macs to begin work on a Mac version. Why did Adobe not already have a plan and resources in place. This type of thing is done all the time. While I do not expect that every single bug be issued a release patch,it would be very nice and customer friendly to have a bug fix release plan in place and implement that plan. Especially in the first 6-9 months of a major release. I haven't encountered a bug that I know of. But when I do, I willprobably have spent many hours or days thinking I did notwrite the code right only to find out later is was a bug. Wasted time . . . . money. I have said this before, but I would not have a single customer if I told them I could not fix the software they purchased because I was working on another version. I really do not understand why large software companies employ this type of bug fix and update plan. I only hope Adobe will rethink their strategy and implementation of releasing bug fixes. My .02 or actually $ 749 for Flex Builder 2 w/charting.

Based on direct feedback as well as observation from the various public forums weve been pretty pleased with the quality of the release so weve held off on rushing out an updater while we work on things like the Mac release of Flex Builder. Doesnt mean were not fixing bugs, but weve decided to try to address more issues in a longer cycle rather than fewer issues quickly. If theres a specific issue that is blocking your work use the wish form (http://www.adobe.com/go/wish) to submit it and indicate so. There are also plenty of official support options available to help as well (http://www.adobe.com/support/programs/flex/?tab:plans=1) Matt From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]ups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]ups.com] On Behalf Of Adam Reynolds Sent: Wednesday, August 30, 2006 2:44 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]ups.com Subject: [flexcoders] Flex 2 patch timeline Before I dive headlong into my first full Flex 2 project, can anybody from Adobe give me an update as to when/if there will be a patch for Flex 2?

Re: [flexcoders] Flex 2 patch timeline
Jack, I don't think you appreciate what a nightmare that would be for any development company. The sheer overhead of doing what you suggest would be immense. I don't know of a software company of any kind that operates like that. I think you've had the wrong position for 27 years.. Paul - Original Message - From: Jack Caldwell To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Sent: Wednesday, August 30, 2006 8:59 PM Subject: RE: [flexcoders] Flex 2 patch timeline Jeff: I fully understood what Matt was saying. That's just it . . . . it is not a top priority. The issue is that Adobe is fixing the bugs, but not releasing them. We as developers have to try to figure it out then call support, etc. That could take hours or days of my time. It's wasted time and money. I am like you, I don't have a large support staff either. My position, for over 27 years,has always been . . . . find a bug send ALL customers a fix ASAP. Not waiting for a customer to call me. Again, in the first 6-9 months after a major release, I think there should be a different release plan in place.

He didn't say they aren't working on fixes, he said it hasnt been their top priority. If you have an issue, he recommended you contact their support team. I have said this before, but I would not have a single customer if I told them I could not fix the software they purchased because I was working on another version.Again, its not an issue of not being able to fix bugs, many companies have a process in place to allow for handling their customers needs. In the adobe case, if something isnt working as you would expect, there is the support channel. drop them an email or give them a call, and they can help solve the issue you are having. They are the ones who are best able to determine if you are doing something wrong, or if its a bug in the code which needs to be fixed. I wouldnt be at all surprised if their were a number of minor patches available through the support channels. I dont know that there are, but if I were them, and I had a few fixes to specific bugs that havent been reported by the community at large, but instead by a few customers, I would probably give the fixes as needed, rather than make a whole new big push. Then again, thats just my thought process. Sadly, I dont have a whole support team working for me, so i need to deal with bugs in my code as they crop up.At 03:18 PM 8/30/2006, Jack Caldwell wrote: Matt or anyone else at Adobe.I agree that the quality of Flex Builder 2 is good . . . . very good . . . . however . . . .I know nothing will probably change since Adobe is the big software company, and I am only a single customer(Flex Builder 2 w/charting), but this position disturbs me.It reminds me of the construction industry when a contractor builds or remodels my house.
