Actually, the blind developer in our office ( http://uk.linkedin.com/in/arturortega ) quite likes his iPhone.

I believe it’s more to do with their other distribution system, that ibominable dungeon; iTunes.

Once you have access to all the video and music flash sites out their for free, you’re more likely to see most iTunes content for it’s real worth i.e. nothing (though the “worth” thing is another argument, you’ll agree that you’ll at least be less likely to buy from iTunes).

Microsoft is like a cartoon Hitler; you know they’re evil, but they’re so incompetant that you’re not too worried. Apple on the other hand, are both evil and capable.

Comment on TortoiseSVN, Subclipse, how’s it all work? by Anthony Linotn

I didn’t really know where to start. But thankfully your guide really helped.

Took me a while to work out why my repository URL wasn’t working. Turns out it’s because you NEED the file:///. I find that a bit odd since I’ve never seen that as a requirement before in any other programs.

like this (get the PV3D repository from googlecode):

container = this.createEmptyMovieClip(“container”, this.getNextHighestDepth());
container._x = Stage.width / 2;
container._y = Stage.height / 2;

scene = new org.papervision3d.scenes.Scene3D(container);

camera = new org.papervision3d.cameras.Camera3D();
camera.zoom = 1;
camera.focus = 500;
camera.z = -2000;

// bmpImage = bitmap in library
bmap = new org.papervision3d.materials.BitmapAssetMaterial(“bmpImage”);
bmap.oneSide = false;

plane = new org.papervision3d.objects.Plane(bmap);
scene.push(plane);

scene.renderCamera(camera);

Thanks.

It’s been a while (and a couple of machines ago) but I’ll see if I can dig out the FLAs and classes and pop’em up for download.

Comment on My SWC isn’t Compiling properly! by admin

OK another gotcha – check that you don’t have errors in your library. It will not compile the swc, but as you aren’t actually using it directly then you will be able to compile the swf but may not get the error warnings. I’m sure you’ve done this, but clean all the projects as this can sometimes case problems too.

Good luck

Hi,

I am experiencing the same nightmare. I have a flex project which compiles nicely. However when I create Flex library project using the classes of this project, the builder doesn’t compile the swc file. I am sure I do everything correctly, as I tried to do this with some simple project (2-3 classes only) and the swc file compiles. However, when I use my big project with a lot of classes, the swc file is not compiled. Sometimes I have luck to get the swc file if I uncheck some of the classes so that they wouln’t be included in swc, however this happens without any obvious rule.
