RE: FlexJS and Dart?

I had considered Haxe at one point, but I feel Haxe suffers from some of the same issues I'm talking about, namely the haxe language has been stagnant for a long time as well, and while others have added features into via extensions the result isn't very elegant at all - https://github.com/stro

Re: FlexJS and Dart?

Out of curiosity, Jason, did you also consider Haxe? I would have thought that was more appealing - it certainly also has many of the language features you mention and more, along with the flash api support (via openfl) for html5. That is my main alternative to FlexJS for the migration paths I am r

RE: FlexJS and Dart?

again I'm refering to cross compiling the dart framework itself to dart, aka the source input will be dart and not actionscript, and will skip the FalconJX compiler completely and go straight to dart2js or dartVM. The dart VM provides all the compile time and runtime checking you could ask for.

Re: FlexJS and Dart?

Not so much to convince you otherwise, but in case others are curious why certain decision where made: ActionScript is our source language. So is MXML. If it isn't, IMO, then it isn't Flex. We own the compilers and can make changes to the language, even changes that won't run in a SWF if we don

I guess my main issue is actionscript itself. The language hasn't progressed much in quite some time, support for asynchronous operations in just not designed into the language, lamdas, expression trees, etc etc, it's on it's way to a dead langage. Our teams have put in an increadible ammo

Ok so I adjusted the Maven build and it now builds nicely again. By the way the pom.xml you created was 100% correct. All that was missing was to tell maven to build that module in the pom.xml up one level and to add dependencies to the new module in a few modules that needed it to compile. Ch

A common Event interface makes sense. I don't think it will fully solve the problem. Folks will still expect a common base class and make mistakes. It is a rough point in FlexJS right now, but I think there are bigger fish to fry. Folks writing handlers in MXML will not have this problem as oft
