- abalone 10y agoYou're thinking of MXML. Different thing.
- synja 10y agoNope. E4X was inline XML and it has been in AS3 for many many years. Sad to see that all these great and convenient language features will take years (or never) to reach JS now that we voluntarily handcuffed ourselves to standards based tech just to satisfy the vendetta of a dead man. But at least Flash is dead, right?
- MattRix 10y agoThe post you're responding to was talking about the markup language used for Flex, which was MXML, not E4X.
- bbcbasic 10y agoI quite loved my small stint developing in Adobe flex. I have to admit it.
- lscharen 10y agoI share that sentiment. The complete decoupling of UI presentation and logic all the way up to and through asset deployment via Flex Skins was interesting and had a lot of potential.
