Since the native SDKs provide client side functionality ( Geometry Engine http://developers.arcgis.com/en/android/api-reference/reference/com/esri/core/geometry/GeometryEngin... ) to do project and other geometry operations , why cant we have the same capabilities in Flex ? For those of us developing mobile applications using Flex / AIR this would be so beneficial. There are workarounds of building our own engines but why re-invent the wheel. For example the android SDK or the iOS SDK can be wrapped around a Air Native Extension and we now have the same capabilities in the AIR application the question is why should we have to do that when it would be just as simple as including that in the Flex API .
I had raised this question at the ESRI Dev Summit and I am hoping to get enough support here to get attention on this matter. And hopefully a decision will be made to bring the APIs up to par with the SDKs and not short of the mark.
