I am sitting in a Flex Team Q/A session here at 360Flex conference. Some interesting details about Moxie release are being discussed. One of the main goals of the next release will be to work on Flex compiler performance.
Will there be a big chabge with Moxie? (like the jump from 1.5 to 2) The answer is no.
a lot of Flex Builder enhancements and framework extras.
The Flex team enjoys seeing what developers are producing.
The new online Photoshop is a Flex app. Adobe has 15-20 internal apps that are using Flex.

Currently the 360Flex conference is on it’s second day. More than half over. I had the fun opportunity to be called out of a session to find out that my presentation has been changed from today til tomorrow (Ben Forta flys out tomorrow and needed to switch). The switch doesn’t bother just glad to help. So for those that are wondering it is changed to tomorrow at 2:30pm.
I have prepared and some example code based on Tom Ortega’s 360Flex Contact Manager. It takes the Flex application Tom created in Flex 101 and puts a PHP backend on it. The examples I will be walking through is not just one way but 4 different methods of talking to Flex with PHP. I will show how to communicate with Flex through XML (Simple), FlashVars, SOAP (Nusoap), and AMF (AMF0 and AMF3).
In the process I have updated the RemoteObjectAMF0 component I created many a month ago.
Some time when I get back from the conference I’ll talk about the specific updates I made to RemoteObjectAMF0. Those attending the conference will get the sneak peek.
