Hey again Nick!  For any other 4D programmers following this list, there's a
special-topic list for 4D-Flex development that may also be of interest:

http://groups.google.com/group/4d-flex

The 4D-Flex list is no substitute for FlexCoders, but the special-purpose
list is a nice place for those of us that already know 4D.


[flexcoders] A framework to help with busines apps?

2010-02-11 Thread Nick Middleweek
Hi,

Are there any frameworks/ methods of working/ general thoughts on how to
design business applications.

By this I mean best practices to load a flex app, show a login screen,
display a search screen, get data, show results, double click to view detail
form, etc...

I realise we can use Cairngorm, MATE, etc for the overall event mamagement
but what about defining those events or having a naming convention or
approach to follow? Does one exist?

Thanks for reading...
