]]> Comment on Debug Flex and .NET using ASP.NET Development Server by Chris http://miti.pricope.com/2008/07/29/debug-flex-and-net-using-aspnet-development-server/comment-page-1/#comment-16658 Chris Thu, 05 May 2011 01:03:57 +0000 http://miti.pricope.com/?p=9#comment-16658 Greetings. Great post, I think I'm nearly able to debug both the ASP.NET page and Flex app, but my situation is different (using an ASP Web app and not a Web service for starters). I have a flex app that I'm embedding in an ASP page using swfobject.js. I put the two projects in the same folder as described in this blog and I can run the .NET Web app in Visual Studio 2008 and it correctly invokes the embedded Flex app, etc. But I'm not able to debug them side by side: to debug the Flex app, I have to start it first using the ASP.NET Developer Server but it starts in a dedicated browser window. If I then start the VS .NET project, it connects to port 3000 but the Flex app embedded there is not the same (debuggable) session running in a different window/tab. I'm using ExternalInterface to communicate between the Flex app and the ASP page and would like to be able to debug this configuration. Any thoughts on how I can do so (without Amethyst)? Greetings.

I wounder can these layouts can show the elements from bottom to top ? I mean all the element align to the bottom line. For example the LargeCircleLayout expants all the elements from bottom to top.

However I doubt that a thing as complex as mp3 conversion can be translated on the PB kernels that in current version don't support loops. If you know a good open source C library for mp3 encoding you can try to compile it using Alchemy and give it a try. It might work a little faster than an algorithm implemented in AS3 but still it will run on a single core. If you don't have an MP3 algorithm currently then I strongly recommend this way as you have a decent chance of having something working in maybe less than a week (maybe even days if you are good with make files and C compilation).

Currently working at a project where i need to make mp3 encoding on the client. Just wanted to ask you if you own or maybe point me to some sources, where i can do this using Pixel Bender. I want to use Pixel Bender, thinking that the encoding will be much faster than regular as3, or using some alchemy library. Thanks, Marius Bratu. P.S. Great post! Hello:)

I am disappointed with the performance though, if you mouse around even moderately it jumps a hell of a lot. I really like the way you explain the formula that is used for the resizing effect.
