Flex Coding Guidelines   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #64415 of 150524 |
Folks,

As my commitment to community I'm releasing, with DClick support, our
"Adobe Flex Coding Guidelines", a document about Flex (MXML and
ActionScript) coding conventions that we use on a regular basis.

The objective is clear: provide a common and consistent language to
help code comprehension between developers. The practices established
in this document are based on Java conventions, Flex 2 SDK and DClick
team experience (including myself).

By releasing this document, the idea is to help the community improve
their Flex code by using coding conventions as well and hear feedback
from community to continuously improve this document, that by now is a
community asset.

I'll be happy to have volunteers to form a committee or something to
evolve this project further.

This way, comments on this document (including the best practices) are
very welcome! Involve yourself in this flexcoders thread, at the
flexdev (listaflexdev.org - portuguese list on Flex) or at DClick
weblog (http://blog.dclick.com.br/2007/02/10/adobe-flex-coding-guidelines/)

Hi Fabio I think it is a good document, beside the whitespace paragraphs. Distribution of whitespace is always worth a discussion :) There is only one thing,...

I agree, a very interesting read, but one thing I have to disagree with and bothers me a lot that Flex Builder does this when it creates classes. "Close curly...

I've seen more Java developers do it they way proposed with the curly braces on the next line. It's always bothered me... I'm an old dog I guess (actually I'm...

I'm not sure there's a single engineering organization that doesn't get into fights about curly brace placement. To each their own :-) I personally like...

Be sure of that! ;-) There's always a fight on this. We used to place curly braces in the method/block line but since we're often extending Adobe components...

Hi Ralf! I think the "handler" is more a "you can do this way" instead of "you must do this way". I'll change and explain this better in the 1.3release. :-)...
