as2lib: 0.1 Alpha Release

Today was the day….;) The as2lib had its first release during the Flashforum conference here in Duesseldorf, Germany. You can download the release on www.as2lib.org. The release contains support for event-handling, exception-handling, output/log-handling, reflections, data holders, iterators and speed and unit tests.
Whereby the unit tests are currently reworked and not that major yet. We are planning to release a console for debugging and logging as well as a bunch of IO classes for Local Connections, Flash Remoting and Web Services in about two weeks.
I’m a little sad that my AOP framwork didn’t make it right in time for the first release. The reason is that I need RegExp to polish it. It will hopefully be part of the 0.2 alpha release.

    Btw, it’s Algorithm, not Algorythm !! Many classes in as2lib aren’t named properly such as AbstractContentAlgorythm, CacheAlgorythm, …
    There’s no *rythm in here. Please correct this flaw thx. :)

    ;) Thanks for pointing it out. I have already corrected it in the CVS together with a few other wrong names like Consumeable.
    If you find some more name issues let me know it.

    Hi again,
    I didn’t see at first that you weren’t English. Well I’m Swiss so I make some mistakes sometimes too (er…maybe often ?). :) I haven’t much time to analyze your classes (they are too many !). I don’t know where to begin . It would be nice whether you write a small documentation about what can do each Class (what it can be used for) and what is the project overall (to provide new functionalities ? to “upgrade” some Flash 7 Classes ? to help making coffee ?…).
    In fact, a scheme like UML diagramm (as you did for your ExceptionHandling class) would help a bit.

    Hi Anty,
    a documentation (now also in english) can be downloaded on www.as2lib.org. That should give you the basic idea. There are also a few UML diagrams in it. When I find the time I will make diagrams for every ‘part’ of the as2lib.
