RE: SPAM-LOW: [flexcoders] Re: Beta Flex 2 release Date? Any one for a Guess
Thanks Tom. Like João, I am interested in the mechanics of track changes/sync/persist process. You asked How do you envision a CFC backend to Flex2 Data services?. I am hoping that FDS will allow multiple approaches to a CFC backend as, as we all know, there is no one method or framework for writing a persistence layer in CF. For example if you take a look at the FDS section of Christophe Coenraets' FES overview, here: http://labs.macromedia.com/wiki/index.php/Flex_Enterprise_Services:overview# Flex_Data_Service_2 It is very easy to imagine the backend CF code that could be used instead of the java code in his example, i.e. in flex-services.xml destination id=contact adapter ref=CF-DAO/ properties metadata identity property=contactId/ /metadata server assembler classPATH.TO.MY.DAO.CFC/class singletontrue/singleton /assembler fill-method nameloadContact/name /fill-method sync-method namesyncContacts/name /sync-method /server /properties /destination Just two changes, and then instead of a ContactAssembler java class you have a CFC containing the various methods (fill, sync, etc); and within each of these methods you could have either simple persistence code (e.g. direct cfquery calls) or more complex code such as integration with your persistence framework of choice (e.g. Reactor/ARF). Even the sync method is straightforward as after all we used to have to do this sort of thing when handling the multiple changes from the old CFGRID java applet. As I said, it is easy to imagine basic persistence BUT what is harder to envisage are the things João mentions and others. For example; - Complex data objects nested destinations - What do we need to do on the CF/data side to help FDS keep track of changes/dirty records (e.g.. do we need to make sure all CFC instances have a 'dirty' attribute or do we need to have a modified date on the database record. - How do we notify FDS of outside data changes, for example from other presentation layers perhaps, but not necessarily, using the same CFC persistence layer, within or without a framework (e.g. ModelGlue). Perhaps by FMS and CF event gateways? - How will paging work - The usual type casting issues All of the above, I imagine, need to be tackled for all of the other FDS adapters too. Thanks again Tom, any further information is gratefully received. One last thing - I do think it is very important that when Flex 2 and/or Enterprise Services is finally released, that it include a CF FDS adapter. Not only is it important to us Cfers but I think it also sends a wider message that Adobe is beginning to exploit the synergies between products (Flex CF) in its portfolio.

Any one for a Guess Hello, I am working on the ColdFusion MX 7 and Flex2 integration. Here is what we currently have scheduled to be available around the same time as the next Flex2 beta. - An update to the CFC Adapter that is currently available on Macromedia labs. This is mainly bug fixes, and updates to stay in sync with the current Flex2 code. - A CF Event Gateway Adapter for Flex2 and Flex Asynchronous Event Gateway for CFMX7. These two pieces together allow you to publish and subscribe to Flex Enterprise Services destinations from a ColdFusion Component. You can publish messages from a Flex client that a CFC will receive. You can publish messages from CFML code that a Flex client can see. For an idea on how this can be used, see the Flex JMS (Java Messaging Service) Adapter example. This is for Async Messaging and does not integrate ColdFusion with Flex Data Services (see below). So the major new piece here is integration with the publish/subscribe functionality in the Flex2 Messaging services. We are also looking to create an adapter that will enable a ColdFusion Component to be the back end to the Flex Data Services layer, similar to the way Java Objects can currently be used. I don't expect this to be available at the same time as the next beta, but miracles can happen. :) Rest assured that we want to get this kind of functionality into your hands and get as much feedback on it as we can. FYI, we also are hard at work on some CF-specific Flex Builder 2 productivity extensions that should dramatically increase the productivity of RIA construction for CF customers, and make the leap to RIA development for CF customers new to RIA with Flex2 a super easy, fun and productive experience, but more on that later :) Questions: - Do you think you can use the pub/sub functionality as described? - How do you envision a CFC backend to Flex2 Data services? -- Tom
RE: [flexcoders] Beta Flex 2 release Date? Any one for a Guess
Ditto. We are also very interested in CF7 Enterprise/Flex 2 DS integration? Can anyone from the team give a high-level view of the 'mechanics' or how it is being tackled on the CF side. For example, will the adapter have in-built integration with existing java (e.g. hibernate) or CF (e.g. Reactor/ARF) persistence frameworks or will it just provide hooks to make it easier for us to do the integration, or I remember a note to this list, I think from David Mendels, that suggested that the CF team might post details of what they are up to.

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Is Flex Mature ?
OT sorry - On Agile Development ... Interesting article in IT Week (a UK computer industry weekly) that mentions how .Net teams at Microsoft are beginning to use Agile techniques and SCRUM to help them address the complaint that Microsoft software releases are too far apart - they hope to get down to 12-18 month cycles. The article mentions daily team meetings with pairs of programmersdetailed to complete small defined 'problems'. Not sure how big their teams are Regards Ian From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Steven WebsterSent: 28 November 2005 16:42To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.comSubject: [flexcoders] Re: Is Flex Mature ? Jason, There's not really a whole lot I can add to your post. But to address a couple of your points: characteristics. I was curious if those projects have resulted in production (released) software, and if the companies could be publicly cited? The very nature of projects of this size, is such that their release schedules are not in the days or weeks ahead. Or in the past. So I'm afraid, I can't cite client names, or describe their projects in any degree of detail. I'd love to - and perhaps these companies will step forth on the list and discuss their own implementations; but I don't necessarily expect them to. My apologies. I¹m very conflicted by your positioning in this response, and that¹s why I¹m asking you if you can remove the veil on these clients you reference. The terms ³agile practices² and 30+ developers are paradoxical, wouldn¹t you agree? Agile, by definition, is about developing software in short iterations of 1 to 4 weeks. 9 women can¹t have a baby in 1 month, no matter what they try. Likewise, I can¹t imagine the project management nightmare of having 30 developers crank out iterations in 1 to 4 weeks. I didn't say that 30 developers were all working on the same iteration of development. Careful application architecture, a well-defined framework for development, good coding standards, collective ownership, a strong emphasis on unit-testing and continuous integration, all enable the modularisation of a project of this size into a number of almost concurrent mini-projects, each of which can be delivered by "agile teams". In a specific project we're engaged with right now, the developers within the organisation are all engaged in parallel iterations of development, on different modules of the same overall application. Each teams' iterations are aligned, each team continously integrates into the same code-base, yet the average team size working on any given iteration is within the magic numbers that you rightly specify - 4-6 people. I've personally worked on agile teams as big as 10 developers, with 4-week iterations, and would agree that this is getting to as big a team-size as you'd be comfortable with. Agile development promotes face to face communication over written documents. That must be one helluva meeting room to have 30 developers ~LOL~. There is a pragmatic approach here; each team(working on their own iteration) has a morning standup meeting with their 4-6 developers. Meanwhile, a representative of each team engages in a company-wide standup meeting with the business stakeholders. This ensures the necessary granularity of team-wide discussion while ensuring that teams are aware of project-level issues and opportunities. This allows the agile approach to scale. And just to be clear; I'm not suggesting ever that agile development is the only way to deliver these projects. Other teams have their own methodologies, based on their own experiences, and they'll work for them. But agile works for us. Agile development contends that customers and engineers work together in a single workspace, some refer to it as the ³bullpen² though we always preferred the term Bat Cave! 30 engineers plus customers in one space doing 1 to 4 week iterations? Perhaps these folks are doing pair programming (!) so there are really only 15 engineers on the project ~LOL~. The approach to pair-progamming is also pragmatic, on a story by story basis. And yes, there is a customer on-site to whom the development team have permanent access. I¹m not looking to pick a fight with this post, but merely inquiring about the feasibility for you and your team to publish white papers that back these positions up. When I propose whitepapers, I'm proposing technical whitepapers around unit-testing, continuous integration, architecture of large Flex applications, etc. There are other books/whitepapers that cover agile development in large teams; it's not high on my priority, nor do I feel particularly compelled, to "back the position up". With regards to the remainder of your email, casting doubt on the existence of the projects that I'm mentioning here, I'm afraid there's little more response I'm prepared to enter into here. I'm not presenting my findings to a

I *think* you will be out of luck with Flex2 as I think they have made changes to remoteobject/AMF which require the new CF adapter (if you use Coldfusion) or Flex Enterprise Services. In essence, with Flex 2, it seems that remoteobject and the associated speed enhancements of AMF are only available to 'Enterprise' users and/or us CF'ers.

RE: [flexcoders] Re: FLEX Licenses for sale - FLEX 2.0 Enterprise upgrade included
MM announced they will release Flex 2.0 in the first half of 2006. Let's all hope that it is prior to 31/03/06 as, I imagine, there are a few people like us who bought Flex in late March 2005 to beat the price rise on 01/04/2005. Flex then came with a year's subscription included so this may have run out if Flex 2 is released after 1/4/2006. I bet there will be a few people keeping their fingers crossed!

RE: [flexcoders] JPG delivery via Java-App
To avoid having to save the image from the database to a physical file as an intermediate step you could try streaming the data from the database directly into the http request of the mx:image tag as Abdul suggests So, 1. Create a java/actionscript VO mapping that includes the image name as a sting. 2. After Flex has received the VO, trigger an event that request the image from the database either via an intermediate physical file save or directly streamed into the http request. Two requests for data instead of one, but it would get you the image. Hope this helps.

Can you try appending some dummy query data such as ?a=b to the end your RemoteObject endpoint URI (if it doesn't have one already). i.e. if your RemoteObject endpoint is something like: /cfmx/flashservices/gateway change it to: /cfmx/flashservices/gateway?a=b The reason is that CFMX may be using standard J2EE session management rather than CFID/CFTOKEN. Perhaps your IE browser is sending some header (or not sending some header) that makes CFMX or the J2EE application container think you don't have cookie support. In this case, it is trying to send back an AMF Response Header to tell the client to append some ;jsessionid info to the URL so that on your next request it can maintain your session. When this AppendToGatewayUrl AMF response header is sent back, it is literally concatenated to the end of your endpoint. So it might look like this: /cfmx/flashservices/gateway;jessionid=DHDKJHER849527456845 While this is fine according to the J2EE servlet specification, this can cause problems with J2EE connectors (such as JRun's) and web servers such as IIS. Adding some query info to the URL: /cfmx/flashservices/gateway?a=b;jessionid=DHDKJHER849527456845 seems to satisfy the connector/IIS condition. You could prove this by first watching the AMF traffic to see if such a header was being sent or second, sniffing the network traffic to see that a Not Allowed HTTP error was being sent during the failure. I know this is a server side issue and I know you said this only happens in MSIE, but perhaps SP2 changes the default cookie settings for IE only? If you need a network sniffer, there's tons out there - JRun ships with a sniffer.exe which is useful for server side sniffing.

[flexcoders] Flex 1.5 price - A Real Example of a Nearly Lost Sale
Well, we have just committed to Flex and fortunately beat the price rise - paperwork justcompleted with Macromedia UK. First, a big thank you to this list. Whoever started the price increase rumour did us a favour. We have been prototyping and playing with Flex for a couple of months now and have liked what see - both in terms of the 'Richness' Flex can bring to the user experience AND the 'Rapid' way we canCODE that experience. Of course, we have always known Flex to be (for us) an expensive option but, basing our budgeting on the old $12,000 price, we felt that we could justify the cost even though we were 'at our limit'. Our financial year ends on April 30, and we were planning to buyat the end ofApril and use up our budget - thank goodness we didn't wait and were able to secure the old pricing. I say thank goodness because, to be quite honest, we wouldNOT have purchased at the new prices and we would have been cursing for weeks because of 2 months wasted development effort. I can understand why others are 'angry' at the price increase, especially the smaller organisations/developers like us. Flex might be an enterprise class product but I would suggest you don't have to bea 'deep pocketed' enterprise to make good use of it. When we spoke to Macromedia UK we were told that the old (12,000) pricing was 'early adopter' pricing and they confirmed the price increase as Lucian has done. I have to say, that if you are discounting a product for early adopters, it is normal to say so upfront, indeed it is usually done to encourage adoption in an open way. I can't remember Macromedia saying the 12,000 price was discounted for early adopters (but I might of missed it), so the increase in price now seems an unusual marketing tactic. I hope Flex goes from strength to strength regardless of price, and sincerely hope Macromedia haven't killed it via seemingly odd pricing decisions. Anyway, as I said, we have now committed and we look forward to many years of happy Flex development. Regards Ian PS One bit of good news - annual maintenance is based on the price you paid for the product, so getting it at the 'old' price means we pay less for maintenance in future years. Yahoo!

When our maintenance period ends and we decide to extend the maintenance will the price for the new maintenance be based on the original price (12k) or the product's price at that moment in time? According to what Ian just wrote I would expect the first, is this right? Thanks, Dirk. PS One bit of good news - annual maintenance is based on the price you paid for the product, so getting it at the 'old' price means we pay less for maintenance in future years. Yahoo!

Comic Relief - Red Nose Day - Flex
Just noticed in the UK computer press that this year's Red Nose Day (national fund raising telethon for Comic Relief) has Macromedia as a partner. Red Nose day itself is also being billed as the single largest ecommerce event to date. "It expects over 150 million hits, making it the single biggest e-commerce event ever - posing a big challenge for its systems." "The web site itself must be able to support a large number of users wanting to make payments on it during a very short period. Currently the payment mechanism on the site is a holding page generated by payment processing company WorldPay, but Gill said that a more sophisticated page would be available on the day. New media and development directorAmanda Horton-Mastin said, "The technology [will] enable us to live-authorise donations while all the other exciting online activity is happening. The last Red Nose Day campaign received over £3.7m via new media, and Comic Relief hopes to beat this total in 2005."" and isn't this the best quote - sums up the advantage of the Flex experience ... "Horton-Mastin said, "Most people carrying out a transaction get no other return than a good feeling. We have to capitalise on that on the night, not at a later date." Full Story - http://www.pcw.co.uk/news/1161006 And guesswhat they are using Flash and will be using Flex ... "This campaign will see the use of new content using different technologies as the weeks go on, to offer visitors an evolving site. Starting with the inclusion of Flash Comms Server - bringing all the advances that it enables then the release of applications enabled by Flex and Breeze." http://www.rednoseday.com/partners/mini-macromedia.shtml If Flex is going to be used as the 'front end' to the online donation process then this would be a significant public demonstration of flex. Go Flex! Regards Ian
RE: [flexcoders] FLEX - NEW VERSION
We will be talking a lot about the roadmap as we get into the spring and summer. Hey, it's already spring over here in the UK - I see Snowdrops everywhere ;) Seriously a roadmap would be nice. Can you shed any light on: 1. A 'rich text' editor component? 2. Better printing integration with Flashpaper via CF7 Reporting 3. CFLogin integration with CF7 via RemoteObject? 4. The effect of Flash Player 8 I understand if it is too early ...

Flex 1.5 just came out last quarter, so it would be premature to be talking about specific future release dates at this point. Do you have a specific question or request?

RE: [flexcoders] Printing
Hey, what else are you guys working on for Flex 2.0? Now that CF7 (Blackstone) has been released, some of us will need something else to keep us excited. There is no harm in asking right? Regards Ian -Original Message- From: David Mendels [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 07 February 2005 15:59 To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: RE: [flexcoders] Printing Hello, Does anyone know if flex printing is going to be improved in the next version of Flex as it's very inadequate for enterprise application development at the moment. This is absolutely an area we are looking at. It is premature to make any specific promises, but we would like to see major improvements here too. Regards, David Macromedia Yahoo!
