hxamqp: AMQP with haxe!
It’s been a while since my last post, but the wait has been worthwhile. I’ve been working on converting Ben Hood’s amqp library for as3 with my converter. It’s been an educational experience on a couple of fronts getting more familiar with the issues of conversion from as3 to haxe, AMQP/RabbitMQ, and flash vs neko [...]

Previously, I attempted to convert the AsWing project with as3tohaxe and decided instead to go after a smaller code base, the as3flickrlib. I spent the majority of the time dealing with converting the xml processing which as3tohaxe doesn’t handle (and I’m not sure ever will), but the rest of the codebase went through for the [...]

Since the last blog post, as3tohaxe converter now has expression parsing, “as” converted to “cast ()” calls, and a program, as3tohaxe.hs, to run through a directory recursively and convert! So I gave the converter the AsWing codebase as its first big test and ran into a couple problems. The parser was bombing on some unidentifiable [...]

Woo hoo I just got confirmation from Dom Sagolla about flashcamp. This will be my first time going, and I’m psyched! I can’t wait to tap into Flash 10′s new features (vectors, 3D, new text layout engine). The future of Flash and haXe looks bright.

So after a couple of months of study, I finally put together my first Haskell project, as3tohaxe, an Actionscript 3 to haXe converter. And now it’s up on github for everyone. The code is a mess because I’m still green with Haskell (and haXe!). It’s just a start, but I hope to continually improve the [...]
