  1. Flex architectural patterns James Ward Technical Evangelist jaward@adobe.com www.jamesward.com

  2. OO / Components / Encapsulation MXML is Declarative AS3 AS3 is OO • Inheritance • Interfaces Components can contain: • Properties • Methods • Styles • Events • Effects Inline Classes with mx:Component

  3. Project Structure Library Projects • Reuse code across projects Modules • Load blocks of code post-startup RSLs • Load & cache stagnant / cross-application code at startup • Framework Cache

  4. Platform Evolution – Reduced Application Size Persistent framework caching significantly reduces size of Flex applications Users only need to download the Adobe-signed Flex 3 platform component once Flash Player cache stores it for use by any Flex-enabled site Entire Flex applications can now be as small as 50KB Site B Site A CustomCode CustomCode Flex 3 RSL Flash Player 9 Flash PlayerCache

  5. Performance Item Renderers • KEEP THEM SIMPLE! Objects • Typed objects are optimized in the JIT • AMF!!! Modules / Deferred Instantiation • Do things later...

  6. Project Structure Model - View - Controller • Hand rolled • Formal frameworks (Cairngorm, PureMVC, etc) • Singletons • Singletons and Modules don’t mix Consider where Business Logic lives • AIR / Offline requires client-side business logic • Mostly stateless back-ends

  7. MVC / Service Bus Model Component View Service Controller Component

  8. Testing Unit Testing • Flex Unit • Many others Automated Testing • Mercury QTP • SilkTest • Others coming

  9. Scalability CDNs • Edge Cache SWFs NIO Based Messaging • Thread per client does not scale • Working with JCP & Comet style push options like Tomcat 6 AMF!!!

  10. Security Flash Player uses the browser networking stack • JAAS • ACEGI crossdomain.xml - BE VERY AFRAID! <cross-domain-policy> <allow-access-from domain="*"/> </cross-domain-policy> • Never, ever, ever put a global policy file on an intranet site • Never, ever, ever put a global policy file on a site using cookie authentication
