Enterprise Flex Applications with the Parsley Framework

Published August 23rd, 2010 Under Flex, Open Source Tools | Leave a Comment

Parsley is an IOC container for Flex, Flash and AIR applications. It has been around for several years now and started to gain wider adoption with the release of version 2 in June 2009. Its feature richness, extensibility and mature support for big and modular applications makes it an attractive choice for enterprise-scale development efforts. This talk provides a brief overview over the framework’s feature set, covering dependency injection, the messaging framework and object lifecycle management. Furthermore it demonstrates some of the features that are particularly important for larger applications. This includes loading and unloading modules alongside their configuration, scoping messaging to individual popups or windows, combining the various configuration mechanisms, using the versatile extention points to easily add custom configuration tags and finally writing unit and integration tests for applications based on Parsley.
