Yes I am alive!
Apr 17, 2007 Miscellanous
Yes I am well and truely alive. Still settling into life here in Melbourne, applying for jobs (and not getting them, not surprisingly), and concentrating on studies. Meanwhile, Flash CS3 has launched, and I don’t have enough money to get it. What a bummer. Also, Patrick Mineault of AMFPHP has announced he has retired from the project. Aral Balkan releases a new solution that could possibly replace AMFPHP.
So what are my plans now? Uni definately comes first. I have a couple of game ideas I want to realise, and I also run a course-notes site for my course. Portfolio, and site are also on the list. And a job.
But hopefully I will get back into the groove of blogging (and also have things to blog about!). See you guys around!

Hi Daryl,
I don’t believe that SWX will replace AMFPHP. It is an alternative that might be better for certain types of applications (mashups, etc.) and it can be used alongside AMFPHP too as they use the service class structure. In fact, the SWX bundles actually contain AMFPHP and use the same core JSON class.
Basically, when you install SWX, you can choose to hit the SWX gateway to get a SWX SWF back, hit the AMF gateway to do remoting or the JSON gateway for JSON and the XML-RPC gateway for, well, guess what!
Hope you find SWX useful!

Woo I’ve been visited by Aral Balkan! I am honored.
I will be keeping track of SWX
Thanks
