Talking invalidation at FlexCamp08 Belgium
Koen was kind enough to invite me to speak the FlexCamp at Sisa Antwerp. Given just 10 days headsup, I decided to go with my “Invalidation Routines Pounded into your cranium once and for all!” which I gave at the 360Flex earlier this year in Milan. If you are building Flex Components, and are not 100% clear on the uses and implementation of measure(), commitProperties() and updateDisplayList() are, then this is a must see. The original presentation was 90 minutes, this time it’s compressed to just 30, but I’ll still try to fit time to “dig a bit deeper” to keep it interesting for even the Flex Masters out there. I still see people getting this wrong, so I figure it’s a useful presentation. Apparently the event is pretty much sold out, so if you’re not one of the lucky ones, you can try the scalpers outside the door or by bribing Koen
Also, a wonderful case of “ask and thou shall receive”, Christophe Herreman blogged about the release of the Spring ActionScript last week, I asked if he might demo it at the FlexCamp, and within a few hours he was on the speaker list! I’m really looking forwards to that one!
See you there!

Any chance the talk will get publishd on adobe TV or made available in some other way? I would find your talk very useful but am nowhere near where I can attend.

First, good to hear that there is interest in the topic! And sure, I’ll see what I can do. If we can get this taped I’ll be sure to blog about it
