Projects updated for Flex 2!
I've updated my ActionScript 3 and Flex 2 projects to work with the official release of the Flex 2 SDK. Details below.
For the AIM project, I made a couple little enhancements. First, while not a functional change, I documented all the code a little bit better. The main TocConnection class (named for AOL's TOC protocol) can now be instantiated in both MXML or ActionScript. You'll also find some useful event properties that can be accessed from MXML:
-
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
-
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" xmlns:aol="zeuslabs.im.aoltoc.*">
-
<aol:TocConnection signOn="this.signOnHandler(event)" disconnect="this.disconnectHandler(event)"/>
-
<mx:Script>
-
<![CDATA[
-
-
private function signOnHandler(event:TocEvent):void
-
{
-
trace("Signed On!");
-
}
-
-
private function disconnectHandler(event:TocEvent):void
-
{
-
trace("Disconnected!");
-
}
-
-
]]>
-
</mx:Script>
-
</mx:Application>
The particle system experiments haven't changed too much. I made a few minor tweaks here and there to adjust for the changes between Beta 3 and RTM and I added more documentation. Hopefully I'll find some time to do some more experiments with particles soon.
I skipped the MXNA Dashboard, which was my entry to the Flex Developer Derby, for now. Some of that code is a little messy, and it all needs documentation. Plus, I want to make the treemap portion into a reusable Flex component. That's going to take some time.
Finally, I enhanced my Regular Expressions Explorer. Type in a regular expression, and some text to validate or search on, and it will show a list of results. Thanks to a cool little subclass of TextInput, an individual RegExp testing form will now resize based on its content.
Enjoy playing with the code. It is released under the MIT open source license.

I think it would be wonderful if you made a reusable treemap widget. I am a huge fan of newsmap and have wanted to use treemaps to display all sorts of information.
