Flash Builder Plug-in for SAP NetWeaver Gateway going away in April A little over a year ago the Flash Builder 4.5 plug-in for SAP NetWeaver Gateway was published as a beta on Adobe Labs (at As a research beta, the plug-in only works with older versions of Flash Builder (4.5 and 4.6).

The plug-in was never shipped as an official product, and isn’t going to be developed further – we’ve discussed open-sourcing the project with the code owners but this is unfortunately not going to be possible. If you still rely on this research project, please grab the bits now – as part of routine cleanup it will be disappearing off of Labs in April 2013. Apache Flex 4.9.0 Released! The Apache Flex project has announced the release of Apache Flex 4.9.0. As you can see, Apache is continuing to improve the Flex SDK. Flash Builder 4.7 now shipping If you didn’t already catch the announcement as part of the Adobe Gaming Sneak Peek or the Game Developer Tools launch, Adobe Flash Builder 4.7 is now available.

Pete's Blog. Advanced CSS Selector With the Flex SDK Gumbo alpha release almost ready, I wanted to blog about the new advanced CSS selector capabilities.

We’ve added support for descendant selectors, class conditions for type selectors (previously class conditions were only registerd by themselves at the top level, i.e. “globally” instead of on a type by type basis), and id conditions for both type selectors as well as globally. These selectors were chosen as they were seen as the most requested by the community. A few known issues that will be fixed shortly after alpha include allowing combinations of conditions at the top level (e.g. a top level id and class selector together in a selector chain, “.specialButton#button12″); Targeting XMLSchema subtypes for anonymous ActionScript Objects For strongly typed objects, you can implement the mx.rpc.xml.IXMLSchemaInstance interface to provide a QName for the xsiType property to target the subclass to be used during encoding.

So far just a random collection of ColdFusion things that I could remember from my ColdFusion days and some new stuff from ColdFusion 8 and 9. As always, you can follow my sad little Twitter account (@pdehaan) to see the latest aggregated posts from my mini example blog empire (as well as other random tweets). Flex Hero SDK 4.5.0.18623 preview build available now I posted this on my @pdehaan Twitter yesterday, but forgot to post it here.

This Weeks Top Posts (3/6) Here is a collection of blog posts from my coworkers on the Flex SDK, Adobe AIR, Flash Player, Flash Authoring, OSMF, and Evangelism teams. AIR stuff: Flash Player, Evangelist, OSMF stuff: Daniel Koestler. Last week, Adobe announced the public betas of Flex “Hero” and Flash Builder “Burrito.”

You can use these tools to begin creating your own mobile applications that run Flash, AIR, and Flex content, and I recommend you check them out here and here. If you’re looking for the next step in getting started with a real-world Flex app, however, you may be interested in the following: I created an open-source application called SurveyApe, which should help you get started in the process of creating robust, real-world Flex mobile applications.

It’s available on Adobe Labs: New URL: 05/16/2011 SurveyApe utilizes SQLite, the database framework that’s available in Adobe AIR. Ostensibly, SurveyApe conducts a survey consisting of a predetermined set of questions, allowing multiple users to use your mobile device and answer the questions that are provided in a sample database. Matt Chotin. Flex PM Updates Over the last few months we’ve announced some exciting new members of the Flex PM team: Andrew focusing on Flash Builder and Deepa focusing on the Flex SDK.

With Doug focusing on Flash Catalyst and folks like Vera and Bill helping across our ecosystem, the Flex PM team is in better shape than ever. This means that I’ve been given an opportunity to take a new role that will allow to me focus on broader efforts across the Platform Business Unit. After 7 years of working on Flex and its related tools I’m excited to improve my own understanding of how our larger business works and do what I can to make sure that all of us within Adobe are making the Flash Platform the best it can be. This role change means that I’ll be less involved in the day-to-day operations of Flex, so you won’t see me announcing new builds, beta programs, or responding on the forums.
