Using respondTo and reactTo

Category: Development, Fabrication, Flex, PureMVCDarshan Sawardekar @ 11:56 am

Marcel has written a very thorough article which takes a look at a two Fabrication features that help to reduce the boilerplate in PureMVC Mediators, Reflexive Notification Interests and Reactions.

Reflexive Notification Interests allow you to implement the act of indicating notification interests and reacting to them in handleNotification in a single step via respondToNote syntax. Instead of writing a long switch case statements, individual respondTo methods are used. Similarly, the reactTo syntax does the same thing for events. Thanks Marcel, Nice to see an indepth and objective look at Fabrication.

    Hi Darshan,

    I’m using Fabrication and am able to build my files, but I was wondering how I could use the Flex Builder Debugger to debug an application using Fabrication?

    Furthermore, if I build a debug version of any swf, it throws an error on startup upon registering the Mediator for the main application MXML (tried with all examples in the repository).
    Could you enlighten me on this subject please?

    Thank you very much!

    Kind regards,
    Sven

    Is fabrication a dead project?
