Newtriks | Flex, Flash & AIR Development | Everything about Flash | Scoop.it
[NFC] For once, this is the main page of the site I link. Professionally, I have to use IntelliJ IDEA to code some flash stuff. And I'm an old eclipse fanboy. Transiting from Eclipse to IntelliJ ain't that simple. Newtriks has some really nice tutorials about the later IDE. A must read. You can follow him on twitter : http://twitter.com/newtriks

Compiling big Flash/AIR projects with lot of SWFs for iOS

Compiling big Flash/AIR projects with lot of SWFs for iOS | Everything about Flash | Scoop.it
This is a nice little trick that can solve you lot of issues.

When you are building a game for Android or Blackberry Tablet OS in Adobe AIR, you are allowed to load the SWF files on the fly – that’s because the code is interpreted from ActionScript bytecode. With AIR for iOS, there is no such option, all code must compiled into single IPA file (from ActionScript bytecode to native bytecode), which you can make out of one SWF only.

Lee Burrows » Get Pixel Colour Below Mouse Pointer

I’ve noticed that this question pops up from time to time on forums, and it’s very straight-forward to do; we can use the draw() method of BitmapData to copy any visual element (in this case, the stage itself) into a BitmapData object. Then we can use the getPixel() method to extract the colour.

Farata Systems » BlazeDS and its Dirty Little Secret

If you are developing a distribute application, you can’t get by with any single technology. You’re using at least one programming language and one or more frameworks. I work in the world that requires Adobe Flex and Java EE knowledge.
To develop a front end I use, at a minimum, HTML, MXML, ActionScript, and Flex framework (add Eclipse with WTP and Flash Builder). The server side’s consists of a Java Servlet Container with installed BlazeDS Web application (throw in some XML configuration files) that talks to the business tier of your application, which ideally, has just Plain Old Java Obects (yeah, right!) that embed SQL queries talking to a DBMS using some JDBC driver. Almost forgotten about the ANT build tool.

GUIMark 3 – Mobile Showdown « Craftymind | Everything about Flash | Scoop.it
It’s been exactly one year since GUIMark 2 was created and it seems the natives are growing restless. Over the past few years I have spoken with and worked with a few vendors about performance issues in web technologies. Most of this stuff usually stays pretty internal, but this time I’ve gotten a new request straight from Adobe’s QA team. Build a new version of GUIMark that’s more comprehensive, focused on mobile, and remains open to the community. With 200 test results this is definitely the biggest GUIMark yet.
