ColdFusion Flex 2 Sample Application

Posted At : 7:51 AM Related Categories: ColdFusion, Flex

I have posted a sample ColdFusion powered Flex 2 application to Adobe Labs. The Phone Selector application is a very simple example of a ColdFusion powered Flex application. This sample application is deliberately small and highly focused so as to demonstrate ColdFusion Flex integration options. These include:
  • Accessing ColdFusion Components via Flash Remoting
  • The automatic conversion between ColdFusion Components and equivalent ActionScript objects
In addition, the application serves as an example of some basic Flex functionality, including:
  • The use of Flex states to control display
  • The use of renderers and custom components
  • The use of custom formatters
This application is not intended to demonstrate development best-practices, and was designed purely to demonstrate integration capabilities, functionality, and techniques.

Ben Forta is Adobe's Senior Technical Evangelist. In that capacity he spends a considerable amount of time talking and writing about Adobe products (with an emphasis on ColdFusion and Flex), and providing feedback to help shape the future direction of the products. By the way, if you are not yet a ColdFusion user, you should be. It is an incredible product, and is truly deserving of all the praise it has been receiving. In a prior life he was a ColdFusion customer (he wrote one of the first large high visibility web sites using the product) and was so impressed he ended up working for the company that created it (Allaire). Ben is also the author of books on ColdFusion, SQL, Windows 2000, JSP, WAP, Regular Expressions, and more. Before joining Adobe (well, Allaire actually, and then Macromedia and Allaire merged, and then Adobe bought Macromedia) he helped found a company called Car.com which provides automotive services (buy a car, sell a car, etc) over the Web. Car.com (including Stoneage) is one of the largest automotive web sites out there, was written entirely in ColdFusion, and is now owned by Auto-By-Tel.
