IÂ’m attending/speaking at CFUnited this week. CFUnited is the largest ColdFusion conference, and this year looks to be a great event. The CFUnited team has done a great job with the session lineup, speakers, and the venue which is being held in a brand new facility.

My talk will be on Flash and .Net integration on the desktop. For people who have Flash applications currently delivered through the web or would like to build a Flash application and deliver it as a desktop application, in this session I will go through an alternative approach to using 3rd party projectors or Macromedia Central that in certain cases will meet your needs more easily.

In the session I go through embedding the Flash OCX control in a WinForms applications, communicating to and from Flash to WinForms and other tips, and debugging techniques that help when building such applications.

Although this is not a ColdFusion specific application, IÂ’m hoping itÂ’s a session people will find interesting especially if they are looking to take a Flash application that talks to a ColdFusion back-end to the desktop

I live a mile away from where CFUnited is being held and will be in and out of the conference all week. I will be there most of the day on Thursday. Feel free to flag me down and say hello! MXNA has a temp CFUnited smart category which is a good way to keep up with what is happening this week at the event
