Free Flex 3 Posters

Has anybody been able to order the free posters you get with
Flex 3?
I have been trying to explain to support that the page below
does not take my REGISTERED VALID serial number.
https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/entitlement/index.cfm?e=posters
I have been trying to explain this to them for 14 DAYS NOW
and they still have NO CLUE even what the issue is.
Even though I have given them step by step instructions.
I realize that this is only about a few pieces of paper, but
they are getting me so ticked off!!!
Can anyone offer any suggestions on how to get through to
somebody who might be able to help?
Thanks
Mathias

I was having the same issue. I tried again today...and it
worked!

AS3 and FLEX API Posters

Would anyone know where I can purhcase the ActionScript 3 and
FLEX API Posters that were handed out at the MAX 2006 Conference in
Las Vegas? I've seen versions of it on the Internet, but I cannot
print these versions out. Any information would be much
appreciated.
Thanks -

Good question, I'd like to know this myself. 4.5 has a huge number of changes since 4.0.

Free Flex 3 Activation Key with CS4

I recently installed Creative Suite 4 Web Premium and inside the box was an insert giving me an instructions on how to submit for a free Flex 3 activation key. I did that a week ago but unfortunately I haven't heard anything back. The confirmation screen told me to contact Adobe by a specific email address ([email protected]) if I didn't hear anything back. So I emailed them as well but still nothing. I was hoping an Adobe employee might see this post and be able to help me out. Or if anyone else has any suggestions feel free to drop me a line.
Thanks!

Can Flex data visualization sdk be used for free?

I am not interested in the soure of the data visualization component as such,but I plan to use it(binary) just to create the swf files and deploy on a website. I know that Flex SDK is free. But can i use the data visualization component with the Flex SDK(command line) for free?
I am actually able to use it and do not see any watermark. Just wanted to make sure its free use is permitted under the license.
Thanks.

Thanks for the link Paul.
I am still a bit confused. Let me clarify a bit more.
The 'Get the free Flex SDK' link in Flex Homepage (http://www.adobe.com/products/flex/) lists the following downloads:
1. Adobe Flex 3.4 SDK
2. Adobe Flex 3.4 Data Visualization Components for Flex Builder
3. Adobe Flex 3.4 Automation Libraries for Flex Builder
I downloaded 'Adobe Flex 3.4 SDK' and 'Adobe Flex 3.4 Data Visualization Components for Flex Builder' and unzipped the files, and merged the contents of the two unzipped folders(copied to appropriate folders).
So now, using the command line mxmlc I can use the chart components and I do not see any watermark.
And I do not intend to buy Flex Builder as I just use the command line compiler and a simple text editor. So do I still need to pay the cost of Flex Builder professional(for ethical reasons)? Or since I dont use Flex builder, am I permitted to use the data visualization components for free? Technically there is nothing blocking me to use it free, like the need of a license key etc.

Flex 3 Class Architecture Map?

Hello,
Does anyone know if there is a Class Architecture Map for Flex 3 at all? Not sure if it's actually called that but basically I'm after a wall chart that shows all the Classes, they're properties and methods, etc and ideally the inheritence structure?
This is so I can stick it on my wall and see at a glance what is available to me and where things are.
Thanks,
Nick

Hi Nick,
I like to think of it as wallpaper, as opposed to posters.
Contact your local user groups and they may still have some of them. I'm not sure where you'd get it.
If you google around, you can find a few links:

Flex 2 Requirements for showing Demos

Hello there!
I made a small flex demo for my boss, to show him technology
we could employ besides Old School HTML and Ajaxian stuff. He was
impressed, but asked me what kind of setup the "Sales Guys" would
need to demo my prototypes. I wasn't sure. I mean, I know you need
a browser, and the browser needs the latest Flashplayer (version
9), but I have also discovered that my own demo didn't work unless
I had a server running and ran it through "localhost".
That is, when I dragged my HTML pages (that hold the Flex
stuff) into IE, they crapped out. I was using a datagrid that
pulled an XML file from a subdirectory, and it would throw errors
unless I used localhost with IIS, which is the server I run on my
own machine.
So..... I am assuming that our sales guys will need to be
running some sort of server to demo the stuff I make that accesses
external data. Any other requirements you can think of?
And what is this $20,000/CPU for Enterprise Edition for the
"Flex Data Services Express" stuff? I am assuming that if we buy
the Flexbuilder 2 package, that is all we need to deploy my demos,
right? The $20k thingy is for hardcore development on the backend,
right? Not a requirement, but something you might want to have for
data-intensive applications, right?
Thanks for any info you can give me,
Ann

You don't need any of that stuff. You don't need a browser
just flash9 you can play flex apps as standalone applications and
more over you can embed that data directly in your application so
you dont have to mess around with loading it from a server. To
embed data:
<mx:XML id="myData" source="xmlFolder/XML.File"/>
You dont have to buy anything to author flex, the sdk is
free, flex builder is an IDE and can make the learning curve allot
easier.

Using Flex 2 SDK to compile for Flash Lite 2.0

As I understand Flash Lite 2.0 is a stripped down version of
Flash 7 (that is ActionScript 2.0) with a couple of things added
for mobile specific things. But is it possible to use the free Flex
2 SDK to compile a SWF that will run on Flash Lite 2.0 (or Flash 7
for that matter).
Zarathrusta

I'm not familiar with Flash Lite 2.0, so maybe I shouldn't be
answering this, but I've used the SDK for several projects and I
believe that like Flex Builder it requires at least Flash 8. So, if
FL is comparable to Flash 7, I doubt if it would work. Just my
humble opinion, but hope it helps.

How to use a flex custom component in an AS3 Class?

Our software team has been developing flash applications using AS3 (via the FlashDevelop IDE and the free Flex SDK). Recently, some members of the team started exploring FlexBuilder and Flex (wow... why did we wait so long?). The problem is that some folks continue to develop using pure Action Script 3 (FlashDevelop) while others are creating custom components in FlexBuilder.
How do the AS3 developers use the Flex Custom components built in FlexBuilder in their AS3 Applications?

SwapnilVJ,
Your suggestions enabled me to make progress, but I'm still having a problem. Based on you suggestion, I learned how to make a swc using Flex Builder. I successfully added the swc to the lib resource in my AS3 project (FlashDevelop). I was able to instantiate one of my new components (code hinting even picked it up from the lib).
When I run my app, my component is not visible. I can trace properties of it and the values are correct. Any thought why I might not be seeing my custom component?
package trainer.games.board.MatchThree {
import flash.display.Sprite;
public class Test extends Sprite{
private var cp:MatchingGameControlPanel; // <<< this is my swc custom component created in Flex
public function Test() {
   cp = new MatchingGameControlPanel();
   cp.visible = true;
   addChild(cp);
   trace("width: ",cp.width); // <<< works and displays valid data for the component.

Too small window size in standalone flash player in FLEX

Hello,
I have unchecked the option "generate html wrapper file" so I
don't have to bother about closing the browser tab each time I make
a small change to the code and rerun the application.
This works fine as the standalone flash player closes when I
terminate the application from Flex. However, the standalone flash
player always starts in a fixed window size smaller than my
application size so that I cannot see the whole application. So I
have to enlarge the window size of the standalone flash player each
time which is annoying!
Is there a better solution?
Maybe get Flex to close the browser tab after I terminate the
application. I still prefer to use the standalone flash player
during development as my application doesn't depend on the browser
though.

Building from flex builder vs ant task

I have a flex application written using flex builder. When I
build it and run it using flex builder, or create an air file from
flex builder and run that, then my application works just fine.
However, I would like people without copies of flexBuilder
installed to be able to build my application, so I am using the
flex ant task (flex-mxmlc) to build my application. As far as I can
tell I have the same configuration, and the same libraries included
in the ant task. However, when I run the air file generated by the
ant task nothing happens. If you look in the task manager, you can
see that the application is running, but the main window for the
application never appears.
I tried running the swf through a debug version of flash to
get some log output, and I am getting a bunch of exceptions, the
first of which is:
VerifyError: Error #1014: Class flash.display::NativeWindow
could not be found.
at flash.display::MovieClip/nextFrame()
at mx.managers::SystemManager/deferredNextFrame()
at
mx.managers::SystemManager/preloader_initProgressHandler()
at flash.events::EventDispatcher/dispatchEventFunction()
at flash.events::EventDispatcher/dispatchEvent()
at mx.preloaders::Preloader/timerHandler()
at flash.utils::Timer/_timerDispatch()
at flash.utils::Timer/tick()
It seems like it might not be finding the main flex library
(flexlib.swc), is that where that class would be? In my ant task I
have an include-libraries tag that points to that file.
Anyone have any ideas?

I experienced a similar problem (although the class that
could not be found was different for me). Googling around I found
someone who had a similar problem and claimed that using the
flexlib.swc library was the culprit.
The root of the problem is that the Flex SDK that comes
bundled with the Flex Builder has libraries (under frameworks/libs)
that are NOT included in plain free Flex SDK that you and I are
presumably using on our build machines.
When flexlib.swc is linked in, it causes certain classes to
be required at runtime. Apparently when you compile these classes
are linked in if available, but when they are not the compilation
still succeeds. Only you get a VerifyError when you run the thing.
What worked for me was to copy all the additional .swc files
found in my Flex Builder SDK's frameworks/libs directory to the
same directory on my build machine. Also you will need to copy the
additional files under frameworks/locale/en_US.
Rebuild and clear your browser's cache and it should then
work.

Source Code Editor Framework for Flex

Dear Flex Forum members:
As a Flex newbie a quite important question in relation to the "Flex frameworks world" still remains to me, even after some google search sessions:
Does there exist any (preferably free) Flex framework or Flex component covering the functionality of a source code editor with syntax highlighting and syntax checking? -- Anything comparable to the Editor Framework within the Eclipse RCP (Rich Client Platform) or even to the Eclipse GEF (Graphical Editor Framework)?
The background is as follows (and as described in more detail in my first post to this forum):
An Online Shop Management Component shall offer the ShopManager to specify the products and offers in some declarative way and after a pre-defined grammar in place. The application frontend must be realized in Flex, and that's the reason why I'm now searching for:
some kind of textual or graphical editor framework for realizing the Shop Manager's editor which shall support him/her in creating shop specifications/configurations in a grammar-conforming way through syntax color highlighting and syntax checking (error feedback), and
this editor framework being intended for Flex (i.e., being a flex framework)
In some way, much of the editing/modeling functionality is identical to the one offered by Flex Builder (Eclipse application), but in my case this functionality must be exposed as web application (Flex component running on the browser).
Aps., would it also be possible to realize the Shop Management Component as AIR app, distribute it through a web page and run it locally on the Shop Managers client desktop???
Which products/frameworks do you know for accomplishing this task?
Thank you very much for any help.
Best regards
Alessandro

Since people complain about Flex's basic rich text editor (which is a basic building block of the kind of framework you're discussing), I doub't you'll find what you need out of the box anywhere...

Flex 2 SDK; Can't Build Examples

I recently down loaded the Flex 2 (Flex_SDK_2) software.
After downloading it, it further required the down loading of an
JAVA SDK (I chose Java™ SE Development Kit 5 {jdkl.6.0_01}
from Sun based upon what I think you guys recommended).
I have included
“C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_01\bin” or
“C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_01\jre\bin” in
the system path.
However, when I try and build the examples using the provided
batch file which uses “.\bin\mxmlc” I get
Error: could not find JRE
Error: could not find Java 2 Runtime Environment.
I confirmed that the path was set properly by simply
executing “Java” or “Java-RMI” from the dos
prompt where the “mxmlc.exe” resides.
At the moment, I don’t know what to do next.
A point of clarification, it was my understanding that
“The free Flex Software Development Kit (SDK)” does not
have a 30-day trial period.

It turns out this was a syntax issue. I assumed “Ensure
that Java SDK is installed on the computer and that the
java_home/bin directory is defined in the system path.”,
meant
Set Path=C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_01\bin;….
not
Set java_home=C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_01

Slideshow Viewer with music - Flex example code??

Hello.
I am not a Flex programmer at this time. I have only started looking at it because a client of mine wants a slideshow viewer that fades between images and plays music on her website. The site is done with simple PHP. Can someone point me in the right direction? I have no problem learning Flex but I need this asap.
Thanks in advance,
Noble

Noble -
There's no point in reinventing the wheel for that solution...
This is a free flash-based slideshow app that will solve your problem quick, and if you dont like that one, try google'ing Flash-based slidewhow...
http://www.flshow.net/carousel_download.php - by the way, it is FREE
Flex would probably do what you want, but you would be a ways off from deployment, and learning it to solve this problem seems like overkill.

Flex SDK usage rights

Hello,
I have legal questions. I develop an application that will
create swf files. Like FlashDevelop, it will run on
.NET and use the Flex SDK for compiling. So, my question is
do I have the right to ship and sell my application with Adobe's
free Flex SDK bundled inside?
Regards,
Mirza

I think the question was "Which flex components will not work in right way if we compile project with Flex SDK 4.5 and then run it in Flash Player 10.0 enviroment?"
For example - as I understand some new components in Flex SDK 4.5 use flash.globalization classes - so new spark formatters and ?validators? will not work in in Flash Player 10.0.
    * spark.formatter.NumberFormatter
    * spark.formatter.CurrencyFormatter
    * spark.formatter.DateTimeFormatter
    * spark.globalization.SortingCollator
    * spark.globalization.MatchingCollator
    * spark.globalization.StringTools
Also we have to pay attension to 'string sorting' functionality - because it could be dependent on flash.globalization also.
Are there another 'danger' components in Flex SDK 4.5 ?

Flex and commercial apps?

Hi everyone. I have a simple question:
is it possibile to use the free Flex SDK to develop a commercial application or any generic application that could lead to money income? I know this is probably stated in the license but english is not my native language and I'm not good with licensing terms, so I can't understand if I can develop and distribute such application or if I have to buy some particular Adobe license/subscription to develop commercial apps. I stress the fact that using the "commercial" word I mean a generic app that could make me gain some money, including for example a free app with a Donate button, other than the classic sellable product.
I hope someone can give me a reliable answer
Have a nice day
C. PG.

In short; yes, knock yourself out!
In a slightly longer answer. We live in a sue happy world and Adobe employees are generally not allowed to comment on, or discuss intricate meanings of current licensing terms. So, they can't tell you what the license means, but they'll sure sue you if they think you're in violation.
At the end of the day, it is your responsibility to discuss your intended use with your legal counsel to decide if your use is permitted.
