Adobe's Flex Builder can help in building a data grid from a service in "Flash" !
That's what Mayank and Sunil were telling the Eclipse India Summit 2009 attendees. They demonstrate how quickly a service can be consumed and converted in to a .swf file.
They say, the advantage should be that the whole UI application goes to the client, and since its inherently AJAX , lazy loading and has automatic paging etc. it should perform well. Most of the demo showed automatic code generation making CRUD operations really easy. I still have questions about maintenance and worried about narrowband towns.
Yeah! its really cool to see , oval on a WebSite screenshot to be converted in to a search textbox. The Flash Catalyst tool helps in converting PhotoShop image layers in to controls/widgets - its especially beautiful too a line and a box converted in to a scroll bar ! They say the web designer and web developer can work in iterations sending work back and forth.
Somehow I don't like to have more languages (declarative MXML and action script), especially when you have to print currency in 18 languages !
