Gridshore » Integrate flex security in Mate using the spring Bl. More than a year a go I started writing about flex. My first post was about the integration of BlazeDS with the springframework at the back-end using intellij. I moved on with a Datagrid component that had filtering included in my second post. Than I did two posts about integrating spring security. The first article was a nice start to understand the concepts. The second post improved the code a lot with more understanding of the flex principles. With the next posts I moved on to use maven, which in the beginning was not easy, but thanks to the excellent flex-mojos plugin from velo.
Kind of a long introduction, but what is this post really about? Read on to find out how I did it and like always leave a comment if you like it or if you have improvements. The books-overview sample The books overview sample is a very easy application. Svn checkout gridshore-books-overview To tests if it works, you can use the following commands: Upgrading flex-mojos 2.0.0 to flexmojos-maven-plugin 3.x - Occas. In case you want to build Flex applications using Maven 2 the Flex Mojo plugin is surely the best Maven 2 plugin to accomplish a fully featured build setup. Unfortunately it lacks documentation. So the best resource for settings up own Maven builds is to look at the examples that the developer Marvin Froeder uses to test the plugin. Marvin Froeder has also a blog where he used to announce changes. However yesterday I realized that I was still building against the Flex 3.0.0 SDK and was looking for information on how to update the build against the latest 3.3.0 SDK.
Fortunately Marvin is very, very fast and responsive in the Google Groups discussion group so I took a look into and searched for information and found a thread, where Flex-Mojo 3.0.0 was mentioned. So I tried to upgrade and get the latest Flex Mojo Maven plugin and it was not as easy as running mvn -up. So here are the upgrade instructions from flex-mojo 2.0.0 to flexmojos-maven-plugin 3.x: New Repository New Plugin Artifact. Maven 2 - Club d'entraide des développeurs francophones.
