pureMVC example application Outlines

[trilec]

Hi all,
As I began expanding my horizons into the pureMVC framework I started outlining the demo source code.
Part of this outlining process was to simplify to the raw PureMVC functions and callbacks so I could see at a glance how the demo was structured and thus giving me more insite into the framework itself.

This is an example of these outlines, the question is does anyone else find this useful?
And if so where would be a good place to upload more of these.
Outlines for:  Cafetownsend , Bookstore , Arch101Demo and Helloflash.

Hope it helps
Cheers

I think this is very useful. It's always good to think before you go straght to development. It's just a thing you need to learn.
I usually make a lot of notes for myself. I use uml class diagrams a lot to put a lot of the info of your outlines in. I also make little notes of processes. A simple example from my Memory game (it's in the GameCollection demo)

All the cards are layed down
card.TURNED event
  send CARD_TURNED
  CardTurnedCommand
  If(firstCard == null)
    firstCart = turnedCard;
  Else
    secondCard = turnedCard
    Send CHECK_CARDS
    CheckCardsCommand
      If correct score++
      Else score--
        removeCards

so true,

Have you seen any flow charting for action script 3 with perhaps import/ export.
seems to be nothing out there.

Visio is great for UML. You just have to add the language types. In the VSD file for the PureMVC Framework, I have all the AS3 types defined, so that when method return types or parameters are entered they're typed to AS3.

Visio comes with several language's defined, but I've not yet discovered how to save it out of the UML model I have it defined in so that it can always be available for any diagram.

If anyone knows, please tell me, and I'll post the AS3 types if it can be exported for reuse. Surely it can.

For AS3 there will be an UML Software called "Saffron". It is not released yet, but it looks that's it will released soon.
Here is the Blog with infos about this software.

Check the last half dozen messages or so. Seems Saffron will not be making it to Flex anytime soon, if at all.

Enterprise Architect is a good one for AS3, you can import classes and export stubs. Very nice.

I've been following Saffron for over a year. Its general vaporness makes me sad, but he is very close, so we shall see. If you get past the rumors and see what he is saying, then it will still make it to AIR.

I have ended up using MicroOLAP Database designer for getting proxy designs and VO's
then feeding PHP output into FCG (Flex Code Generator with some adjusted templates) to output pureMVC source, needs a little re-work for pureAS3, but saves quite a bit of time.
