Topic: How To Build Powerful Editing Apps Quickly With Degrafa And Object Handles
Speaker: Marc Hughes, Manager of Software Engineering at Tom Snyder Productions
Marc will show us two open source Flex libraries, Degrafa and ObjectHandles. Degrafa is a declarative graphics framework that lets you create graphical assets in MXML. He’ll show us how to create some visuals without any bitmap or vector based art assets and then use those to skin Flex components. ObjectHandles is a library he wrote to allow developers to easily create a Flex application that allows movement & resizing of onscreen objects by users. Marc will give a quick introduction to that and show off a few examples of it in use. After the introduction of these two libraries, he will demonstrate how to build a basic diagramming application using Degrafa and ObjectHandles.
