Hi Lincoln,
interesting news :)
I allready thought of building a Cocoon Flex Serializer and had a look
at the flex compilers code in order to be inspired. Unfortunately It was
far to complex to do this at home, after work. And there were some
leagal doubts preventing me from continuing after a first courious look.
I would guess, that a Apache integration would be nothing else than a
servlet configured to handle flex source files and compile them to swfs.
You could simply generate flex source files dynamically and let the Flex
servlet serve the content. The other way would be to ... well ... have a
look at the code and create your own component. The problem is, that I
doubt having a component like this would be legal, because it reqires
decompiling the servlets code and AFAIK this is BAD.
If I am wrong with this (Decompiling beeing bad or the code is freely
available), please correct me, It would certainly reignite my effort to
creating a FlexSerializer.

Hi all,
Adobe has recently released a beta "Flex Module for Apache and IIS"
http://labs.adobe.com/wiki/index.php/Flex_Module_for_Apache_and_IIS
Snippet from site:
"The Flex module for Apache and Microsoft IIS provides web-tier compilation
of MXML and ActionScript files on Apache and IIS web servers. This module
lets you rapidly compile, test and deploy an application by simply
requesting the main application file from a web browser..."
Now MXML is XML. The format served to the browser is Flash/SWF. So this is
about creating Flash based Rich Internet Applications from XML.
I am wondering if it's use on the Apache server means we could see it become
available one day in Apache Cocoon.
I don't know much about the Apache server, and I assume Flex applications
generation via MXML would be vastly more powerful in Cocoon rather than
Apache server.
Any thoughts, anyone?
