MAX 2007 in Barcelona: Talk Materials Online

  • The Euro-edition of an interactive panel on Flex Best Practices featuring myself, Steven Webster, Sascha Wolter and Dirk Eismann. This one was considerably less formal than the American version and had a lot more give and take; I feel I was able to apply some good lessons and feedback from the first one. I don’t have notes on the panel, since I was moderating it — you just had to be there!
  • A presentation called Practical Patterns in Flex, which I adapted from Jim Echmalian’s talk at 360Flex earlier this year. This features a brand new take on the Model-View-Controller-Service architecture, and highlights the use of specific design patterns to remedy problems of encapsulating responsibility, dealing with asynchronous operations, and gaining access to the “right” controller without using messy singletons. I put together a working sample application in source code form that accompanies the talk.
  • Another talk entitled Continuous Integration for Flex with Ant and FlexUnit, originally assembled by Daniel Rinehart for MAX North America.
