This is the code we distributed together with the other 3 frameworks' code for our MAX session titled "Using Flex Frameworks to Build Data-Driven Applications". I didn't include the code for the other frameworks because I wasn't sure if I had their latest versions. I'll update the links here when they post the code in their respective websites.

Instructions to run the application:

1. Start the database: Open a DOS prompt (Windows) or Terminal (Mac), navigate to sampledb and execute startdb.bat (Windows) or startdb.sh (Mac)
2. Start Tomcat: Open a DOS prompt (Windows) or Terminal (Mac), navigate to tomcat/bin and execute catalina run (Windows) or catalina.sh run (Mac)
3. In Flex Builder click File > Import > General > Existing Projects into Workspace. Specify 'projects' as the root directory and click Finish

These are the slides I used.

Everybody is invited to FlexMania. Tomorrow, July 7th, I'll be presenting about Mate (in English). It will probably be a shorter version of the presentation I gave at 360|Flex, about scaling Mate applications, so if you missed it, you can see it now.
