Cataldo, Flash Builder was not donated to the Apache Software Foundation -- Adobe retained it as a commercial product. We unfortunately don't have control over its direction or performance. There is an understanding between Adobe and our project that they will remain compatible with it if at all possible. We are striving (and testing against) Flash Builder for our own project to make sure we can at least compile our own project with it. You can check out how to get started with Apache Flex and Flash Builder here : http://flex.apache.org/doc-getstarted.html (hopefully it translates well!)
There is a lot of work being done with a new compiler, known as "Falcon". This is the next generation compiler that was started by Adobe and donated to us midway through development. It is not 100% there yet, but if you read this mailing list, there are lots of strides being made in a short amount of time that will make it complete. This is the new compiler that Adobe was saying was going to be 5x faster (our tests are not as optimistic), but at the very least it will move us forward and further than we've ever been. The new compiler is also allow us to play with multiple outputs, including HTML5. -Nick 2013/2/4 Cataldo De Benedictis <cataldo.debenedic...@sabacom.it> > Hello guys, > > sorry for my english, we are an Italian software house that has created a > product that bases its technology on frontend flex. > > As this product on our core business, and being a project on which they > work twenty developers would be interested to know what the future > developments of this technology now that is passed to Apache, if you plan > to integrate and evolve the Flash Builder and if there are plans to > improve the performance of the compiler (real problem in high-profile > projects). > > > Thank you for your attention, good job!**** > > ** ** > > ** ** > > [image: Descrizione: cid:image002.jpg@01CC5E66.71D2D760] **** > > Sabacom s.r.l. > Via De Carolis, 144 Taranto **** > > www.sabacom.it**** > > ** ** > > Cataldo De Benedictis**** > > cataldo.debenedic...@sabacom.it**** > > Phone +39 099 9646161 Mobile +39 3938915906 > Fax +39 099 7793989**** > > Le informazioni contenute nella presente comunicazione ed i relativi > allegati possono essere riservate e sono, comunque, destinate > esclusivamente alle persone o alla Società sopraindicati.
