Flex-Ajax Bridge or FABrige is an extension to Flex that allows you to control your flex application by writing JavaScript code without manually setting up any external interfaces. In other words, you’ll have control over all the elements in your Flex app through javascript. For example, if you wanted to get the current value from a TextField called foo then change the text field you might write something like this:
var flexApp = FABridge.flash.root();
var savedText;
function saveTextField () {
savedText = flexApp.getFoo.getText;
flexApp.getFoo.setText("Saved");
}
I don’t see exactly how this is AJAX yet, but it looks pretty awesome.
Update:
This isn’t a new product. It’s been around for a while but I guess it just went to version beta 4. Thanks to Paul for catching that.
