26 Sep: Flex Google calender
posted by: Martijn van Beek, at 26 September 2006 11:31 GMT+1, 27 September 2006 10:18 GMT+1
My first (working) Flex application. It displays a public google calender. It's build upon the new XML object which introduces a couple of new things to the flash world like namespaces and E4X.Here is my first Flex application that is worth publishing. It's an app which visualizes a google calender (if it is public). For this example I choose the Adobe Apollo calender made by Mike Chambers. Flex introduces a new XML object which handles XML like it should be. It supports namespaces, E4X and more. I struggles a lot with the namespace stuff and think my app can be much simpler. This app will be updated when I learn more about Flex.
The Flex Google Calender 0.1:
Because of the flex sandbox i've written a wrapper in php to open the calender.
If anyone of Google is reading this, please place a crossdomain.xml file in the root of google.com with a little * in it as allowed domain
If anyone has tips for me for my flex app please mail me at: martijn (at) devigner (dot) com.

at 21 March, 2007 21:32Hi Martijn,Wow, flex and gcalendar together! I'm learning flex right now and this is the first calendar example I've seen. I tried to download the zip file on the viewsource page but it doesn't seem to work. When you get a chance, could you make it available again.Thanks,Drew -

at 8 December, 2007 19:55I'm learning Flex too. I'm able to create an Array collection from the Google calendar feed but have been using the debugger to try and parse the XML hierarchy without a great deal of success (stupid coercion errors! :)
Thanks for sharing this! -

Many thanks.
