Around 6 months back me and Vikas Hazrati gave a XTR on Adobe Flex to my colleagues in Xebia India.
We took some resources from Adobe Dev Net site and eventually found a cool article explaining how Flex Data Services works with Spring using Spring Remoting features and so on.
We were quite amazed with the UI capabilities of Flex with its server side integration. If you look at that article now, its start with a disclaimer saying “Effective with the release of Adobe LiveCycle ES, the Adobe Flex Data Services 2 server product has been rebranded as a Solution Component of LiveCycle ES.”

The purpose of this post is to give a Maven based sample code of Spring with Stripes integration. The source code set is already in Eclipse project format, so you can use eclipse to view files content and structure.
This post will not explain about the techniques of integrating spring with stripes. The spring with stripes integration is very well explained at Stripes framework wiki page – Spring with Stripes. I kindly suggest you to read that documentation first before trying out the sample code given in this post. This post also assume that you are familiar with the basics of Maven, Eclipse, Stripes and Spring.
Few of the other “How to” samples (like Ajax addition, addition, echo, stripes layout reuse) that were documented in Stripes framework wiki page were also included in this sample code.

In this blog I will show how to create a simple Master-Detail screen in Flex, how to back it up by an application is Grails and how to publish changes via JMS to all Flash clients. Important topics will be binding and remote java-object invocation in Flex and configuring JMS.
A Master-Detail view is a view with a master list, showing a collection of items and a detailed view, most often consisting of a form, in which the a single item can be edited. Clicking an item in the master list will display the details in the detail view.
The combination of a framework for building RIA’s (Flex) and a Java based dynamic framework for building services (Grails) seems very promising. I think the high productivity that can easily be achieved by this combination will make it a very attractive choice for your next big project.

JavaFX is one of the recent additions to the Java Platform. Its aim is to “to simplify and speed the creation and deployment of high-impact content for a wide range of devices”. I think SUN is right to focus on this market.
One of my first thoughts was: “What’s with the name?” In my mind it is a reference to Flex. I doubt that it is wise for SUN to make such a reference; they might not be up for that kind of competition…
But for now, let’s focus on what is in this new package.
