Flex - Handling collections from a web service call in object format

Tue, 08/26/2008 - 08:18 — mark

We recently started an internal project and this time decided to use Adobe's Flex RIA (Rich Internet Client) technology for the front-end. We last used Flex on a project about a year ago and it is great for flashy web front-ends.

Flex and XML namespaces

Wed, 06/20/2007 - 21:27 — mark

While learning Abobe's Flex technology one of the issues I faced was how to handle multiple namespaces in the soap messages returned from the web services we were calling. The web services had been written using XFire and, due to the tight deadlines, the namespaces where left to the verbose XFire defaults.

E4X -- Javascript easy XML processing

Wed, 06/13/2007 - 07:08 — mark

One of the neat features I learned using Flex/Actionscript was e4x which stands for "ECMAScript for XML" . ECMAScript is what we commonly know as javascript. What's great about e4x is that its a javascript standard extension and that it's a really usefull and easy API.
