In addition, two developments pertaining to Flex development support for Microsoft's .Net software development technology were unveiled.
"A partner of ours, called Ensemble, out of Vancouver, has created a Visual Studio plug-in called Tofino, which gives you Flex and MXML support," said Ben Forta, director of platform evangelism at Adobe, in an interview after the morning keynote presentation. Also, Adobe itself is working on a project to boost Flex development in .Net, featuring data services capabilities. That project is with Adobe Labs.
Specifically, Adobe is porting BlazeDS, which has been a Java open-source technology for communicating between Java and Flex/AIR clients, to .Net. Thusly, .Net developers can use Flash Remoting and messaging, Adobe said.
