Today we are going discuss about the process of developing Adobe Flex application. It is split up into four steps:
· Design and Configure
· Build
· Deploy
· Secure
The first step while designing an application is to decide what this application will do. After determining what this application will do, select API’s functions that you need to develop this application. This will help in clean and easy implementation of the application by selecting the right plan to develop it.
While building any application it consists of two steps compiling and debugging. We will discuss more about them in detail.
This step will create common binary SWf files that will execute your application using Flash Player. This binary file is generated from source file, which includes MXML, Runtime Shared Libraries (RSL), media file etc. Compilation process will generate SWF file, which will be executed using Flash Players whenever an end user request’s it from web server. After compilation it is necessary to debug this application as it may not work as expected.
The compiled application can be debugged using Flex Builder debugger. It is a full-featured debugging environment. Flex Builder debugger also supports setting up breakpoints, where you can select lines in your code where you want to stop execution and inspect your code to check state of your program.
You need to publish SWF file on the web server, so that the end users can access your application. You also need to write some HTML code to integrate the SWF file into your page. In addition to SWF file, you also need to publish any assets that are used in your Flex application like images, videos, XML data files etc.
