FLVPlayback finally in Flex

Finally Adobe has published a version of the beloved FLVPlayback that works either in Flash 10 and Flex 3. No more crappy NetStream in Flex! :-)

You have to login with your AdobeID and Agree to some blahblah ;-)

Download here the component - there are also documentation && examples.

 

Have fun

Actionscript code generator on the fly

I was wondering if that could be done.. Now i found this amazing japanese site, via pixelhero, where you can code & compile online in Actionscript 3.

Wonderfl: build flash online

and this is my first attempt to code online. ;-)

Tools: Arthropod for debugging

Better than trace or alert, I suggest anyone Arthropod for tracing out debugging information.

It consist in one class to include in your project, and a small AIR app wich contains the console and some easy configuration.

import com.carlcalderon.arthropod.Debug;
Debug.log("My log message");

Supports logging of a lot of types of data: text messages, objects, bitmaps.

Rating: 10 ;-)

Flexbuilder & SVN

In real life, projects need to be kept under control, specially when you work on a team. I usually use subversion, and the TortoiseSVN client for Windows, which I kinda like. But using flex, which is a port of eclipse, I didn’t see a reason why not to use the eclipe svn plugin.

To install subclipse fon Flex just follow these instructions. Remember that you also need to have SVNKit installed.

It’s really easy to use, all options you need are in the Team menu, in the right click over the project list.

Thanks to Samuele for the support with eclipse.
