The last weeks or maybe even months, I have spent time getting to understand the Axon Framework created by Allard. Axon is a framework that can help developers created a scalable and maintainable application based on Command Query Responsibility Segregation (CQRS) principles. Each morning Allard and I discussed the framework and the sample we wanted to have. Since I know my way around flex and Axon makes heavily use of events, I decided to create a flex client that could demonstrate some cool features of the Axon framework.
This post is mainly about flex and Parsley. We will go into depth of the architecture of the client and how to talk to the server. I will describe the communication with the application that makes use of the axon framework, but I will not go into a lot of details. If you want more information about the Axon Framework I suggest you go to the website http://www.axonframework.org. There is good documentation available in the reference manual. If you want to learn about flex and the Parsley framework in general, please read on.

Last week, I published the 0.4 release of the Axon Framework. Axon helps developers build high performance, scalable and extensible applications using the CQRS pattern. The 0.4 release is a major step towards 1.0, and includes transactional event handling, high-performance caching repositories and easy configuration of event sourcing support. Furthermore, we have also built a demo application that uses Flex to get real-time updates pushed from the server.
Read on to find out more.

In March 2008 I started experimenting with flex and java integration. I wrote a lot of blog posts since than and even published an article on adobe.com. For most of my blog items I used a sample that is available on google code called books-overview. During the years the sample improved a lot. By now the sample consists of Mate, BlazeDS, Spring BlazeDS and a lot of other spring technologies like spring security.
I was some time a go I had a look at the sample, since than a lot of people keep coming back to it. I still get questions about it. Therefore I decided to upgrade the sample. This blog post is about the upgrade I did which are mainly upgrades in versions of the libraries and the build configuration. Still I think it is worthwhile to have a look at it.
