You might have noticed that since I started my blog in 2008, I covered a lot of technical topics. Before this blog started I was already working as a programmer building application in an Enterprise context. This has been a very interesting journey for me and I am quite [...]
I have been playing with Adobe AIR 2.0 beta 2 for a couple of weeks now. And because we use Maven for our bigger development projects at Nascom, I decided to create a small proof of concept app to wrap the most used Maven commands. Off course Maven is [...]
Last year I have been working a lot on Flex applications, and because of this I usually take my experience from Flex development and apply it to Silverlight. One example is the PureMVC framework that we use at Nascom for most RIA applications we build. The framework also has ports towards other technologies [...]
Another interesting announcement was made yesterday at MAX 2009. Next to the fact that you can develop iPhone apps with Flash Pro CS5, it is not recommended to use the Flex framework for building these applications. The official statement says:

The first example is the most commonly used data binding scenario. It [...]
A while ago I wrote a blog post about a list of useful actionscript libraries on Google Code. So this is a follow up post, and an addition to the previous list. Not all projects are hosted on Google Code, so hence the slightly different title.
Here’s the list:

One of the new features of Flash Builder is the support for FlexUnit (the Unit testing framework for Flex applications). You could use FlexUnit in the past, but as from Flash Builder it’s a piece of cake to create Test classes for your own code. You just need to follow these simple steps.
