Lançado o novo Flex Showcase

O Mike Potter acabou de anunciar o lançamento do novo Flex Showcase. Nesta nova versão, que também é uma RIA, é possível encontrar algumas características interessantes, como a possibilidade dos criadores das RIAs listadas poderem fazer login e editar a informação das mesmas, ou alterar os seus screenshots.
Os visitantes podem também votar nas suas RIAs favoritas e deixar comentários.
Melhor que o próprio showcase, são as RIAs nele listadas. Nada como ver com os próprios olhos!

As melhores perguntas do Live Chat de 18 de Setembro

Foi esta noite o Live Chat com Ryan Stewart, James Ward, Matt Chotin, Mike Potter e Dave McAllister. Eu e o João Fernandes, para variar estivemos presentes com as nossas perguntas. Peguei no chat completo, e seleccionei as melhores perguntas para colocar aqui. E digâmos que há algumas novidades muito interessantes. O Thermo é uma delas!

Outra é que provavelmente conseguiremos trazer a Portugal alguns dos nomes acima referidos quando organizarmos o ciclo de conferências que estamos a planear.

Seguem então as questões. A itálico são as que eu e o João fizemos.

Question: What is Thermo ?
Answer: “Thermo” will streamline the process of adding interactivity, behavior and motion to creative assets and will work seamlessly with both Adobe’s Creative Suite tools, such as Photoshop, Illustrator, Fireworks and Flash, and with developer oriented tools such as Flex Builder.

Question: How are things looking for the next FB3 and AIR beta releases?
Answer: Great, they’re on track to be released in early of 2008.

Question: will we see a better embed pdf solution in AIR before version 2.0?
Answer: We’re definitely looking at ways to increase the support for PDF in AIR. I think that’s going to be a big part of 2.0.

Question: will we see an Adobe solution for SEO problem in flex so flex apps could be crawled by search engines?
Answer: We are working on a solution for this. Flex 3 includes built in support for deep linking into your Flex applications.

Question: What are Adobe`s plans/timeline for incorportating AIR technology into mobile devices?
Answer: It’s in the plans, but we don’t have any release date for it.

Question: Is access to graphics processors on the horizon for the flash player?
Answer: we are currently beginning to leverage the graphics processors for hardware acceleration of video and will be looking to leverage this more in future Players

Question: Is Adobe working on some kind of solution for using Actionscript also as a Server-side language?
Answer: No, not that we know of.

Question: How long do you see AS3 being the standard for Flash Platform development? Is AS4 in the works or can we keep AS3 for a while and just add api`s for features?
Answer: AS4 is currently under development in the TC-39 of ECMA. AS3 doesn’t just go away because of a new standard, so you can continue to extend it as necessary. Expect to see more on AS4 from ECMA in mid-2008

Question: when will we see AIR supporting on2 or h.264 to FMS, this is a must have for AIR?
Answer: AIR 1.0, which is out early next year, will support both On2 and H.264

Question: Is there PDF support available for Flex?
Answer: Not from Adobe, but there are some cool third party libraries including AlivePDF.

Question: The Portuguese RIA community is thinking on organizing a two day event around RIA development. Would you guys be interested in coming to Portugal and be the speakers at some sessions?
Answer: Yes, please contact me at *******.

Question: Will the VM of Flash Player ever allow access to local filesystem by explicit authorization of the client? (this would be incredible…)
Answer: this is definitely a request we’ve heard before and something we’ll try to consider for the future

Question: Will flash player eventually support proper, standard compliant formatting for html text?
Answer: text is something we’re focusing heavily on for the next major release of the Flash player. more info to be announced at MAX

Question: Will be the switch to FP10 even more amazing than from FP8 to FP9?
Answer: We think it will be!

Question: We miss better representation of Adobe here in Portugal, other than commercial. Does Adobe has any plans for Portugal?
Answer: check out flex.org/community to learn more about the user groups, we’d love to see one in portugal

Question: Any concerns with SWF and Flash decompiler ? Is there any ways to enhance security ?
Answer: we’re working with some partners on this, but if you deliver your SWF over HTTPS you should be OK

Question: Will FB have some kind of UML to AS live synchronous code generator?
Answer: not in FB3, but there are defintiely folks out there in the community who have been thinking about this

Question: Will it ever be possible to use joypads and other HCI devices on Air applications, without using some kind of backend to talk to the drivers?
Answer: I hope so :) . It’s on the roadmap, it just didn’t make it into 1.0 Joypads with Flash/AIR games woudl be sweet! (Ryan Stewart)

Question: AIR Webkit plugin support for non adobe technologies like quicktime or wmv?
Answer: Not right now, but we’re talking about it. (Ryan Stewart)

Lee Brimelow junta-se à Adobe

Lee Brimelow acaba de anunciar que é o mais recente “platform evangelist” da Adobe.
O autor do gotoandlearn() já tinha participado no onAIR bus Tour acompanhando a equipa da Adobe para fazer demonstrações nas várias cidades americanas. Agora na terceira e última parte do tour, já será como empregado a tempo inteiro.

Apesar de ser um evangelista da plataforma, ele diz que o seu foco será sobre o Flash.

Cursos de programação de RIAs e Aplicações Web

Muitos dos alunos a quem dou formação, quando sabem que a minha área de negócio é em redor de Rich Internet Applications, perguntam-me se conheço algum curso nesta área. Infelizmente, que eu conheça, ainda não existe em Portugal um curso de desenvolvimento de RIAs.
Isso levou-me a pensar que seria boa ideia fazer duas coisas…

A primeira é, obviamente, criar um curso de desenvolvimento de RIAs. Como tal, dentro de um mês deverei começar a trabalhar nisso para tentar colocar o curso em prática em 2008.

A segunda, é criar um espaço no riapt para anunciar cursos de programação web com qualidade, o mais próximos possível do desenvolvimento de RIAs. Assim, convido todos os que conhecem bons cursos em escolas de formação técnicas ou profissionais, a enviar um mail para a mailing list com o nome da escola, o nome do curso, e o currículo do mesmo. Poderão ser as próprias escolas a fazê-lo, obviamente desde que o curso tenha qualidade.

Para começar, posso aconselhar o curso de Programação de Aplicações Web na etic_. Este curso sofreu uma restruturação na qual estive envolvido, aproximando-o muito do mercado de trabalho. Um dos seus pontos fortes é o projecto que em principio tratar-se-á de uma solução de e-commerce com algum CRM, baseado em Actionscript e PHP. Sou um dos principais formadores do curso, por isso posso garantir a qualidade do mesmo.

Curso

Rua D. Luís I, nº6 – Lisboa
info@etic.pt

Julgo que as inscrições terminam este mês.

Sei que a etic_ anda a negociar a compra do Flash CS3, por isso é bastante possível que a linguagem leccionada a partir do módulo 16 seja Actionscript 3. No módulo 20, é leccionado Flash Remoting com AMFPHP. No ano passado, foi integrado no curso um workshop de 12h de Flex 2. Não sei se isso acontecerá este ano, mas vou começar já a fazer pressão.

Agradeço que enviem outros cursos com currículos interessantes para a mailing list, para que os possa publicitar no riapt, criando uma secção específica para tal.

(UPDATE)
Se preferirem, em vez da mailing list podem colocar a descrição dos cursos aqui nos comentários deste post.
