I have been writing some applications in AIR that for the first time make extensive use of SQLite. I hit a few roadblocks along the way, so here are a few things that may come in handy if you are using SQLite in AIR for the first time. (more…)

Flex SDK 3.3.0 Stable Now Available

Flex SDK 3.3.0

Now that the new stable is available for download, I would imagine that a new release build isn’t too far off…

You can download the latest version of the SDK here: http://opensource.adobe.com/wiki/display/flexsdk/Download+Flex+3

From what I can tell, it mostly comprises of bug fixes – no fancy new functionality seems to have been added. But I guess you will have to find out for yourself by trawling through the nightly release notes (joy :S)… If you find anything noteworthy, let me know, I only noticed a few changes in some of the utility classes.

Links For 2009-01-22

Thursday, January 22nd, 2009

Don’t worry, the whole links thing won’t become a regular feature of this blog – this is just a roundup of a few things I have wanted to post about recently but just didn’t have the time:

  • There is a cool writeup about Konductor on O’Reilly’s InsideRIA blog (Even though it reads a bit like a blogvertisement in parts, it is very thorough)

  • There a bunch of new videos about Konductor on our Youtube channel – if you want visual and aural updates of Konductor’s progress, then subscribe
  • This one has been blogged to death already, but I am loving Big Spaceship’s Pretty Loaded – I hope they can keep adding new content

It has been a little barren on the blog lately, but I have a few posts I really want to write up about some really cool stuff we are doing with Dreamweaver extension development, so subscribe to the RSS feed and keep your eye open for it if you are into that kind of thing.
