Yes, dynamic typing versus static typing is an old argument starting since LISP, and it's still an argument. Here is a good discussion brought up by Douglas Crockford: https://plus.google.com/118095276221607585885/posts/MgzNUSTwjRt In my opinion, I think it's really a personal preference, and I want to write and maintain real javascript code directly so that I have control over everything. That doesn't mean I refuse the help of tools such as JQUERY or DOJO. Translating from another "language" is not my favorite option even though the result seems not unreadable. Intellisense might be a big plus for many people. Again, it's a personal reference. It's a nice to have feature, especially for programmers whose primary language is not JavaScript. ... View more

This is not a new feature at 3.5. It was introduced at 3.4. The only reason that I suggested to use 3.5 is to make sure your environment is the same as the sample, so that we can narrow down the issue. If you are using 3.4 hosted by Esri, instead of your local hosted one, and you can still reproduce the issue, that would be very strange. Maybe you want to post a simplified reproducible code snippet? ... View more

Luci, templates is an array, instead of a function. So that it cannot add () along with it. You can use for loop to loop through the array. For example: var i; for (i = 0; i < this.templates.length; i++) {   this.templates.layoutOptions.titleText = printTitlep; } ... View more

No, you don't have to set alwaysUseProxy as true. It's not recommended unless it's necessary. For example, if the services and the image output folders are behind fire wall or other security settings, and you put the credentials in the proxy. For that case, proxy is always necessary. ... View more
