Questions tagged [flex4.5]

Flex 4.5 is an iteration of the ActionScript and MXML based RIA SDK focused on expanding support for mobile / tablet platforms.

Notable areas of focus compared to version 4:

  • Developing mobile and multiscreen applications
  • Accelerated coding for Flex and ActionScript projects
  • Support for an improved designer/developer workflow (Flash Builder <-> Flash Catalyst)
  • Updated platform support and improved performance
  • Expanded set of Spark components replacing MX versions, including:
    • DataGrid
    • Form
    • Image
    • formatters
    • validators

The initial 4.5 release in April 2011 provided support for Android devices. A subsequent release in June 2011 (Flex SDK 4.5.1) added functionality to target both iOS and BlackBerry Tablet OS platforms.
