What's Flex?
What's Flex? I'm bumping up Christian Cantrell's piece from last week, because I think this info will prove very valuable for people reading this blog. Flex 2.0 is now in public alpha, and will soon go beta, and will prove a significant event in web application development, I believe. Christian describes the different parts of the Flex 2.0 ecology: the Eclipse-based Flex Builder to create SWF interfaces from XML instructions on a standalone authoring machine; the optional server-based Flex Enterprise Services for live compiling of XML to data-fed SWF; the Flash Player 8.5 to work on consumer machines worldwide to predictably render these interfaces; the Flex Framework, a standard to describe advanced interfaces in XML; the Flex Charting Components to add advanced numeric visualization to the browser; the Flex Compiler which can be used inside of Flex Builder or in other types of workflows too. The first discussions of abstracting rich interactivity into XML took place on the Director mailing lists in the late 90s, and now a practical implementation is almost here. Unlike many web technologies, which develop under hobbyists and then try to scale up to enterprise, the Flex approach started in enterprise with server compilation (and high ticket price), and its strong success among those buyers now helps bring a proven framework and rendering out to the world's wider set of developers. I think that more and more people will ask you, as each month goes on, about what Flex is and how it works. Check out Christian's description and the links... puts you ahead of the game, gives you the answers ahead of time.

什么是Flex?在上周我被Christian Cantrell's 文篇冲击,因为我想这个信息对阅读此博客的人将很有价值,这一点会得到证明的.FLex2.0现在是很流行的词了,它将很快有测试版了,它将证明对web应用开发,有着相当大有意义,我相信,Christian Cantrell's描述的Flex2.0:基于Eclips的Flex Builder将能从XML指导下创出SWF的界面成为一独立的创造机器,基于选择服务器的FlexEnterprise Serives能生动的编译XML到SWF,FlashPlayer8.5工作在全世界性的客户端上,这可预言性的致使这界面应用,Flex Framework一个标准的表达高级的xml接口;FLex Charting Components将添加高级数字可视的应用在浏览器中;也能被运用于FlexBulider或者其他类型的工作流中,第一次的对xml抽象及其丰富的交互讨论是在90年代末,但现在实际上到现在才应用,不像其它web技术,只能先在开发运用在程序癖好者中,然后才扩展到企业,FLex是接近于在企业服务器运用为出发点,它强有力支持购买者,帮助全世界范围的开发者带来框架证实,我想过几个月会有越来越多的人们将问你, 关于什么是Flex?它是怎么工作的。检查Christian Cantrell's的描述和links....使你在这个游戏中领先,在将来不久我将给你答案。
