Re: [flexcoders] Cairngorm is bad?

No Unittests. It is very strange but after releasing FlexUnit nothing is done to improve it to support async tests. Nothing is done to implement Mock Objects in AS (however as2lib has some implementation). That is why Flex community still cannot write neither functional tests nor unittests, and

Re: [flexcoders] passing a view to a command

Interestingly this is always the case in Aral's view-helper-less ARP framework - because the view itself (not the EventBroadcaster singleton) broadcasts the event, the controller uses the target property of the event (the view) to call methods to update the view. I had a talk with Aral after
