Fabrication - Simplified PureMVC multicore modules
We have released a new PureMVC multicore utility, Fabrication. It simplifies the development of modular PureMVC multicore applications. You can find more details about it in the PureMVC forums.
Download the Fabrication utility here.
Download the Fabrication routing demo application with the binaries here.
The live demo is here.

do i need a swc to use this, if not.. what else do i need to do ?

Hi ceaseoleo,
Sorry for the late reply. I missed this comment earlier. I haven’t put out a swc at the moment. I am changing a few things with the framework at the moment. I will add the swc to the download once I am finished with the refactoring.
peace,

I use Flex builder ANT blug-in but I can not use the build.xml to generate swfs.
I always get error at line 11.the error happen at:
fabrication.dir = ../../framework/trunk
Do you have idea to make the ANT plug-in to work with the build.xml? how to change the build.xml.
Thanks

Questions for build.xml
1 I can not see the file that name is ‘user.properties’
2 A error happen at
file=”${fabrication.dir}/common.xml”
because of
fabrication.dir = ../../framework/trunk
3. which file define {bin},I can not find the file.
4.How to make ANT elipse plug in work with the build.xml.
Thanks

Hi Mike,
The build system is tied to the Fabrication framework directory. I didn’t want to duplicate some of the common build stuff that is use in the framework in the examples also. The user.properties is used to override the fabrication.dir. You need to create this file along side the build.properties or directly modify the fabrication.dir property in build.properties.
To get the build system to work,
1. Checkout the framework source from http://fabrication.googlecode.com/svn/framework/trunk/.
2. Create a user.properties in the fabrication directory and add the property flex.dir to point to your flex framework sdk directory.
3. In the example application created a user.properties and point above mentioned fabrication.dir property to the folder that you checked out fabrication into.
4. Then run ant in the example directory. It should compile the application and launch it.
peace,

One more thing, the example zips in this blog post are dated. You need to use the examples located on svn at http://fabrication.googlecode.com/svn/examples/

Do I have to use ANT to compile Flex application with Fabrication?
May I only use Flex builder to do the compilation with Fabrication framework?
Thanks

You can use Flex builder also. You will need the swcs for Fabrication and its dependencies(PureMVC Multicore and PureMVC Pipes utility) in the libs folder. If you are targeting Air then you will need the air version of the fabrication swc. You can find these at the download site[1].
