Figure : Flex runtime architecture.
Flex runtime architecture
The Flex runtime architecture is closely aligned with the just-in-time deployment model of web
applications. The client portion of a Flex application is deployed as a binary file that contains the
compiled bytecode for the application. Users then deploy this file to a web server just as they
would an HTML file or an image. When the file is requested by a browser, it is downloaded and
the bytecode is executed by the Flash Player runtime.

As illustrated in Figure 3, once started, the application can request additional data or content over the
network via standard HTTP calls (sometimes referred to as REST services) or through web services
(SOAP). Flex clients are server agnostic and can be used in conjunction with any server environment,
including standard web servers and common server scripting environments such as JavaServer
Pages (JSP), Active Server Pages (ASP), ASP.NET, PHP, and ColdFusion®.

If the Flex client application is used in conjunction with Flex Data Services, the application has
access to additional services. Flex clients can make direct calls to Java objects as well as subscribe
to real-time data feeds, send messages to other clients, and integrate with existing Java Message
Service (JMS) messaging systems. The Flex Data Services application runs on the server within
the Java web container.

Flex development model and application framework
The development process for Flex applications mirrors the process for Java, C#, C++, or other
traditional client development languages. Developers write MXML and ActionScript source code
using the Flex Builder IDE or a standard text editor. As shown in Figure 4, the source code is then
compiled into bytecode by the Flex compiler, resulting in a binary file with the *.swf extension.

As shown in Figure 4, the Flex application framework consists of MXML, ActionScript 3.0, and
the Flex class library. Developers use MXML to declaratively define the application user interface
elements and use ActionScript for client logic and procedural control.
