FlexCamp Boston is tomorrow at the Bentley College. You can still register online, and you will also be able to register on site.
In addition to demonstrating Model Driven Development in Flex using Flex Builder 4 and LCDS “Next”, I will also “sneak peek” the new Spring integration announced earlier this week in collaboration with SpringSource.
Hope to see you there.

I have written several times about the Flex / Spring integration on this blog. Now things are about to get even simpler and more integrated. This is very exciting news!
From the press release:
Adobe Systems Incorporated today announced that it is working with SpringSource to simplify the development and deployment of rich enterprise Java(TM) applications through a collaboration that will provide integration between the Adobe(R) Flash(R) and SpringSource platforms. This collaboration will make it easy for Java developers to create enterprise-class rich Internet applications (RIAs) using Adobe Flex(R) software, a cornerstone of the Adobe Flash Platform, and Spring, the de facto standard for enterprise Java.
With support from Adobe, SpringSource is introducing Spring BlazeDS Integration, a new open source project to provide tight integration between Spring and BlazeDS, Adobe’s open source server-based Java remoting and Web messaging technology. A beta version of the Spring BlazeDS Integration will be available from SpringSource in mid-December.
Also in development for early next year is the SpringSource Adapter for Adobe(R) LiveCycle(R) Data Services ES(TM) which will provide integration with Adobe LiveCycle Data Services ES, enabling the creation of server push-based applications based on Adobe Flex for real-time and near real-time solutions.
If you are not attending MAX Europe in Milan this week, I will present my “Model Driven Development using Flex Builder 4 and LCDS Next” session at FlexCamp Boston on December 12th as well. Hope to see you there!
We just added a new session (not in the printed agenda) to talk about a brand new feature the LCDS and Flex Builder teams are working on…
Session details:
“Model Driven Development using Flex Builder 4 and LCDS Next”.
Wednesday, December 3, 1:30 pm – 2:30 pm, Yellow 2
In this session we take a Sneak Peek at a new and exciting feature in Flex Builder 4 and LiveCycle Data Services “Next”. Using the combination of these two products, you will be able to build data-driven applications using a Model-Driven Development approach. In other words, you don’t have to write any server-side code: the data access logic is derived from a simple data model that is easily created and updated using new tooling in Flex Builder 4. This solution is designed to work for simple and very complex applications.
I hope to see you there!

In the second version of our contact management application, we encapsulated the data access logic for the Contact entity in a Data Access Object (ContactDAO). This separation of concerns represented a major improvement compared to our first approach. The remaining limitation we identified was the amount of SQL we had to write “manually”.
In this third version, we use a mini Object Relational Mapping (ORM) framework that leverages the Flex support for class annotations to entirely eliminate manually-written SQL statements.
