Hi Dev and everyone,

Our company has developed tens of commercial projects with Cairngorm  
over the last four or so years including several with hundreds of  
classes in the client, in Flex and Flash.  I have to admit that I  
simply don't understand many of the criticisms levelled at Cairngorm  
on this list.  It is a very small amount of code (only a few hundred  
lines without comments and spaces) to be responsible for so much  
misery ;-).  If people can give me some specific examples of tight  
coupling or other problems they are having with Cairngorm I would be  
happy to spend some time over the next few weeks (while my workload is  
lighter) suggesting ways to address them.


Regards,
Robin

You can have a look at Aconcagua
(http://code.google.com/p/aconcagua-flex/) as an alternative for
PureMVC and Cairngorm.

Among other features, it supports IoC and has an MVC module.

 I've been using Cairgorm with Prana - an IoC framework. It designed
to work with Cairngorm, as well as Pure MVC but I would definitely
advise looking at it. With regards to Cairngorm it removes all the
problems you have with tight coupling etc.

 It's a pretty hot topic on the web, the battle PureMVC vs Cairngorm. 
 
 
 
 Imho, PureMVC is a bit more complicated to put in place, but is a
great pleasure to use after set up. 
 
 
 The best'd be to test them both if you have time :)

   Cairngorm is definitely a Flex thing, it's dependencies are not
superficial;
   it wouldn't make much sense to try to use it on a pure AS3
project. You'd
   have to redo it and redo the stuff it relies on, which is not trivial.
 
   I agree with Pedro that you should take a look at PureMVC... or,
better yet,
   go back to Flex ;-)
