easow83 — Thu, 12 Nov 2009 07:08:31 +0000

This is a summary written by Jeremy regarding the popular framework currently available for Flex.So that you can make the most informed choice possible regarding which framework best suits the needs of your team or project.

Frameworks must be simple and maintanable, rather than popular or complecated.

With flashplayer10 out in the wild, it’s only a matter of days before the release of both FlexBuilder 3.2 and AIR 1.5 -aka Cosmo (nightly builds are already available). Although we probably shouldn’t expect much besides the FP10 upgrade, it’s still pretty exciting news. I don’t know about you, but I still haven’t compiled any application for this player just yet. I didn’t want to bother tweaking my development environment, and just prefered to wait. Now, I must say I’m getting impatient… Here are some thoughts about what we can expect from these Read More

Flash player 10 security

easow83 — Sat, 18 Oct 2008 13:32:54 +0000

Hmmmm!! I was reading the flash player 10 security that adobe releases last week.I am very happy with the new text engine they are comming up with,

previous text engine have lots of limitations(like was not able to render HTML conent,as other HTML style related stuffs which i faced during development).But this time i think some them they managed.It was a nice feature if they supports HTML fully.

The other features like RTMP(Real time messaging protocol)….i faced lots of problem with scalling of FMS(flash media server)..this time they fixed some thing like lossy delivery, improving performance of real time communications.

ai! in between anyone have an idea of “SPEEK AUDIO CODECS” …

one more feature i love is Drawing API…i love it..
