Comment on My thoughts on why Silverlight isnâ€™t for Flash Developers, and what does it really mean for Microsoft by Shaun

I think you hit the nail on the head! It is also my belief that MS created Silverlight not to lure away Flash developers, which is a tiny number to begin with, but to keep their .NET developers working in within the MS ecosystem to produce RIAs. Why learn Actionscript when you can reuse your .NET experience to create something equivalent to Flash?

I’m a Flash developer with prior .NET experience and a traditional CS background. I’ve looked at Silverlight. You can tell by the way the libraries and development environments are set up that it’s geared towards pre-existing .NET developers. Whereas Flash is geared towards designers who picked up programming, WPF/Silverlight is designed purely for traditional programmers. That’s why Flash development is so easy to pick up–it’s pragmatic. Not so with the .NET framework. It’s a behemoth designed for general programming. You can make almost anything with .NET. RIAs are just an add-on. There’s no way a Flash designer/developer without traditional CS experience can pick it up. But as you rightly concluded, MS is not aiming for Flash developers with Silverlight. There are a lot more .NET programmers than Flash developers.

Comment on Make empty elements with XSLT by Bob

Bob — Sun, 06 Apr 2008 18:02:47 +0000

It’s been a while since this thread was added to (by anything other than spambots), but I’ll add that I was having the same problem.

Empty elements with attributes were being given a closing tag, rather than the compact single, closed tag.

In the end, adding the following attribute to the xsl:stylesheet element worked for me,

xmlns=”http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml”

This, in conjunction with an xsl:output element with method=”xhtml”, produces single, closed tags with a space before the forward slash (because of compatibility problems that some old browsers have), which is exactly as I need it.

I’m using Saxon-9b, by the way.

Here’s a crazy, wacky idea: Make a Visual Studio plug-in version of Flex. Adobe did it for Eclipse, why not do it for Visual Studio? I don’t know how difficult it is or whether it is possible, but they should look into it. I’m not saying drop Eclipse or that VS is more important than Eclipse, but if Adobe wants those VS people, they should spend the $ and make it happen.

I was a Visual Studio C guy for many years before switching to Flash/Flex. Visual Studio is a great development environment. It took me a while to get into Eclipse, and I still like VS more than Eclipse.

If I could do my Flex and ASP.NET development with the same platform, I’d be happy guy.

Hey, I’m at a new company, trying to hire a Lead Interactive/Motion designer. I am VERY green in the arena…any tips about the best places to post Flash-specific jobs?

Thanks much!

Comment on Programming Flex 2.0 Shipping! by Mike

A good book with some great nuggets, but the code examples seem to be an afterthought.

Is there anyway to get complete code examples? The code examples in the downloadable zip are just snippets. For example, the Chapter 18 code is hardly usable since you never show the entire application, other than snippets, and a picture of the running app.

Also, organizing the code samples in a directory structure would sure be nice.

Comment on Multi-part MIME Component by ssb

ssb — Thu, 15 Nov 2007 20:11:37 +0000

I am having a problem with special characters when using the multipart mime to generate word documents. I am using activEdit to store the text in a database and then use multipartmime to generate a document using cold fusion. When the information is pasted from a word document and then saved in the database some of the characters are not apparing correctly. Examples are

2002â€“2003 shows as 2002 132003
skiersâ€”were shows as skiers 14were
open quote as 1C
close quote as 1D
aportrophe as 19

Comment on Changing Export frame for classes requires unchecking Export in First Frame for components by Stephen

Stephen — Wed, 14 Nov 2007 13:30:36 +0000

I managed to get a simple solution to my problem above. I just placed an instance of the Alert Component off the stage with an instance name of comp_Alert in the same frame as my classes we set to export. When I tested this though, it showed a blank alert box in the centre of the screen. So on that frame I added

destroyObject(”comp_Alert”);

and it all worked a treat. Hope this helps someone else

Any ideas on how to get the Alert Component to work when the export frame is changed and I’ve unchecked the Export in First Frame on the Alert
