Scott Wilson commented on WOOKIE-143:
-------------------------------------

Hi Thomas,

Great contribution - thanks!

I looked at flex-iframe and it uses an MIT License which is compatible with 
Apache, so no problems there.

I don't really know enough about Flex to do a good review, hopefully someone 
else here can help out?

> Hey,
> Summary :
> 1/ New connector
> 2/ Licence problem ?
> 3/ Advices and remarks
> 4/ URLLoader vs. HTTPService
> 5/ Others
> I have developed a as3/flex connector for Wookie. There is still many things 
> to improve, but it is on a working state now, that is why I decided to post 
> it on JIRA.
> I will send a new version in the next days, with more documentation and a few 
> improvements.
> One of these improvments would be to add an iFrame component inside the Flex 
> application "Example" to display widget instances. However it is about a 
> particular component that doesn't come from standard flex libraries. This 
> component is available at http://code.google.com/p/flex-iframe/ I would like 
> to know, if I will not have any problem with Apache by using this component, 
> since I want to grant Apache rights on my/the code.
> I have some ideas about potential as3/flex connector improvment. Nonetheless, 
> I will enjoy advices and remarks from the community :-)
> I is impossible to respect the same class interfaces and class organisation 
> with as3 because of programming language constraints. We can't have abstract 
> class for example. We can't methods sharing the same name and having 
> different parameter types (except by using default parameter value). etc...
> I couldn't succeed in developing a synchronous URLLoader oder HTTPService, 
> something equivalent to HttpUrlConnection. If somebody knows a solution, I 
> would be grateful.
> Else do you think it is better to use URLLoader or HTTPService ? Code is 
> using URLLoader actually. Calls return URLLoader as a consequence and access 
> to the data property/attribute allows to access to right values. But I'm 
> wondering me, if it hasn't more sense to use HTTPService and return 
> ASyncToken (or connector project sub-classes) instead. If somebody has an 
> opinion about that, please ?
> I advice you to use FlashDevelop, if you wish to compile sources. (It is 
> efficient and free).
> Sorry. I have been afraied to reread what I wrote, that is why there must be 
> some errors still ;-)
> Bye,
> Thomas.
