Welcome to Flex Viewer forum

[BjornSvensson]

The Flex API forum has long been a place for both the Flex API and Flex Viewer.  As of today there is now a separate forum for "ArcGIS Viewer for Flex"

If you have questions more specific to the Flex API itself, use http://forums.arcgis.com/forums/18-ArcGIS-API-for-Flex

Is there any way the Flex API and Viewer for Flex forums could be listed closer together? There are a lot of Viewer related posts in the general forum, probably due to the fact that the Viewer forum is buried in the list of forums, whereas the API forum is at the top of a column.

Related to this, can the moderators be more vigilant about moving posts into the correct forum?

Could the moderators please tell us if we need to check both forums for viewer-specific posts?

Ken's suggestion was a good one.

Thanks.

Yes, since users are posting viewer-related posts in both forums, you probably should look in both forums.

If I see questions in the API Forum that are clearly about configuring viewer, we'll move them to the viewer forum, but leave a redirect in place for one month in the API forum.

So. I have started working with flex viewer-App builder and have successfully created a few Web Apps that function really well. But now I am confused as to whether or not I am going in the wrong direction when it comes to be able to deploy these maps to our field people. We ultimately want to have our field crews using tabulates. I understand that Apples IOS does not support flash plug-ins. And that Android does. now I am reading, hearing that Android is not the way to go because Adobe is doing something with flash and the new androids will not support flash plug-ins. So needless to say I am very confused at this point with what direction I should be headed in. Is it best then to buy adobe flash builder and learn how to create my own map apps that will allow us to use our flex viewer builder maps that I have created or should I be concentrating my efforts somewhere else. I have little to no programming experience which is why I liked builder a lot. If someone could please give me an idea as to what tabulates would be best for us to use or which is the easiest ones to create web apps for if that's what we need to do. We are a smaller organization so our field crews don't edit data just view and query, look at linked drawings, in the field. From my reading I am guessing that building map apps in adobe flash builder with Arcviewer flex API is probably the best route to ensure that any tabulate we use will consume my builder web apps. Please help me be less confused. Sorry for such a long post but in need of some guidance/ideas.

Thanks for that Bjorn. So I have decided to try my hand at developing and bought flash builder 4.6 Just to make sure though. Now that I have flash builder I will be able to "consume" my web maps that I created in App builder 3.0 on tabulates Correct. I also downloaded ArcGis API for flex. With these I can create my own "app" that will be able to consume my app builder maps on tabulates.

Here's another question: Our ultimate goal is to put all of our data in the cloud. either on Amazon or arcgis on-line. Is it possible ti upload our app builder maps to the cloud then have them consume the maps from the cloud on tabulates?

Yes - see my answer to the same question at http://forums.arcgis.com/threads/70008-Confused-need-suggestions-on-best-way-to-consume-my-flex-buil...

I'm not sure what you mean with "app builder maps" - if you are referring to the application builder for ArcGIS Viewer for Flex - then "no".  If you are referring to "web maps" created on ArcGIS.com, then "yes".

If I understand your scenario right, your "apps" would be installed on the devices/tables, your "web map" (configurations) would come from ArcGIS.com or your own Portal for ArcGIS, and the actual data could come from somewhere in the cloud (Amazon, ArcGIS.com etc).  So, in short, yes - all the data would be in the cloud.

1. I have a question or a variable of type object can take the value of a String or int or another variable?
2. which means the @
************ styleTitleFontName var: String = configXML.style.titlefont. @ name;
3. this is interpreted as if?

**** proxyUrl var: String = configXML.httpproxy;
if (proxyUrl)
************ {
**************** configData.proxyUrl = proxyUrl;
************ }

4. Another question in this line ConfigManager.as
var configXML: XML = XML (event.result);
event.result is a variable of type object but have not found where it is used and in the lines below the values �??�??used as if they had.
