Migrating a Flash application to Flex (2004)
In this article I will show you how easy it can be to migrate a well architected Macromedia Flash application to Macromedia Flex. In the process, you will see that the two technologies are more similar than different and learn about bestpractices, patternbased methodologies that lower the risk of developing Rich Internet Applications in the Flash ecosystem. Macromedia uses the term “ecosystem” to refer to the family of products that in some way utilize the virtual machine we know as the Flash Player. This includes the Flash IDE development tool, Flex presentation server and Flex Builder development tool. Both Flash and Flex can be scripted using the ECMAScript 4based ActionScript 2 language and both produce SWF files, the compiled bytecode that is interpreted by the Flash virtual machine. Where they differ greatly is in the source formats used and the time of SWF generation. [via]
