Flex 2 has been released, and with it comes ActionScript 3.0 (AS3).
What better reason for me to start posting again after a very long hiatus?
I've been working on some of the docs and code samples for the Language Reference and Programming ActionScript 3.0 books at Adobe. Now that Flex 2 and AS3 are released, it'll be nice to post a few tips and tricks about them...as soon as I think of some good ones. :)
First let me point out that there is a somewhat hard to find set of ActionScript sample files that you can download for the Programming ActionScript 3.0 book.
These examples are pretty simple, compared to the larger-scale Flex samples, and they focus on ActionScript code (though they do come with MXML wrappers for use in Flex Builder).
These examples all have detailed descriptions in the Programming ActionScript 3.0 book, which is included in the Help for Flex Builder 2. You can find the book and all the Flex docs in various forms on the Flex 2 Documentation page.
