Flex Camp Boston Slides
December 7, 2007 on 12:30 pm | In Flex |Tim Walling and I just finished our presentation at Flex Camp Boston, which has turned out to be a sellout event with some pretty great talks! I’ve definitely learned some cool stuff today.
I’ve put our presentation on the Allurent Desktop Connection AIR prototype online at http://joeberkovitz.com/presentations/ADCFlexCampBoston.ppt in case anyone wants to grab it.

Very beautiful piece of software you guys showed today; it was nice to see your insights into your process of working with Adobe AIR and Flex.

Joe, what an excellent project you and your team have executed. I am in the process of my own project and was introduced to the FLEX application only reciently. I hope you are up for one question. I have a very large set of information in a XML database, eXist. I remember you mentioning during your presentation that you loaded your XML data into a SQL database. Was this done for performance reaasons or a requirement for data services? Any input would be greatly appreciated. Regards.

Kathie — SQL was required, because our application runs in the Adobe AIR environment which may be offline. Thus we need a local database that is accessible from ActionScript, and the only option is the SQLite database that is bundled with AIR.
It should not be too hard to use XSLT and an import utility to convert your XML data into SQL.
