Adobe Flex 3.4

Version of implementation Adobe Flex of programming language ECMAScript

Adobe Flex 3.4 a version of Adobe Flex, and implements ActionScript to produce Flex and Flash applications. It was released on August 18, 2009.

It directly followed version 3.3 of Feburary 5, 2009, and was directly followed by version 3.5a released on December 18, 2009.

Examples:

Hello, World! - ECMAScript (327):

While the constructor Main() is called first, it contains a small routine that causes initialization to occurr only if it is created on a stage or when it is added to a stage.

“Hello World” is created via a TextField object. 

package 
{
	import flash.display.Sprite;
	import flash.events.Event;
	import flash.display.MovieClip;
	import flash.text.TextField;
	
	public class Main extends Sprite 
	{
		
		public function Main():void 
		{
			if (stage) init();
			else addEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE, init);
		}
		
		private function init(e:Event = null):void 
		{
			removeEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE, init);

			// entry point		
			var tf:TextField = new TextField();
			tf.text = "Hello World!";
			tf.x = 200;
			tf.y = 20;
			this.addChild(tf);
		}
	}
}

Quadratic equation - ECMAScript (376):

When Main() is called, it contains a small routing to initialize the text fields and display labels.

The example is constructed from four text fields, not counting the clickable button or static text. It takes input from three editable text fields (identified by TextFieldType.INPUT), and places the result in the output text field.

The example may be modified to update the result instantly, but this one requires clicking “Calculate” to get the result.
