PureMVC Debug Console by Kap Lab
I recently stumbled upon a pretty cool project released by Kap Lab called PureMVC Console. The debugging console allows you to track various aspects of your single/multi-core PureMVC applications in a convenient manner. Setup is simple and the developer guide shows you how to easily switch your project between production and debug mode via compiler directives. During run-time of your application, you can hit a simple key command to bring the debug console up. This project is definitely worth a look!
No commentsFile uploading in a PureMVC application
Problem Summary
File browsing/uploading/saving is a common task. What is the best way to implement file handling while using the PureMVC framework?
Solution Summary
Below I propose a foundation for handling file browsing/uploading/saving in a single-core PureMVC application.
Explanation
In both single-core and multi-core PureMVC applications, I tend to keep all of the FileReference/FileReferenceList event handling in a Proxy. This allows for application/module -wide handling/presentation of errors related to file uploading. It also abstracts the code for re-use in all of your components in the application.

No commentsAuthentication using Flex and the PureMVC Framework
Problem Summary
Almost all of the projects I work on in Flex utilize some form of authentication. So I needed a base flex project that had an authentication wrapper built with the PureMVC Framework.
Solution Summary
Being that I use PureMVC in all of my flash/flex development, I have several base projects on hand to get a project rolling. If you use PureMVC or are interested in getting your feet wet, here you go!
Explanation
For this example, I am going to assume some underlying knowledge of OOP, Flex, and PureMVC. For simplicity sake, I removed any flex remoting specific code (ex. SOAP, XML, AMF, etc…). In another example I’ll demonstrate how to setup projects using both SOAP and AMF based web services.
Requirements:
1. Flex Builder / Eclipse
2. PureMVC Framework (source or SWC) http://www.puremvc.org
3. Understanding of Object-oriented principles.
In support of the Flex Cookbook, the source code and further explanation will be provided on the Adobe Developer Connection website.
