RTFM #81: Removing a property from an object in Flex

March 25, 2009 · 2 Comments

I spent an hour plus today trying to figure out how to remove a property from a generic object in Flex. I was just about to extend ObjectProxy and try to make use of its protected deleteProperty() method when I found just the right set of search terms on google that led me to the ActionScript ‘delete’ operator

delete myObject.myProperty;

Voila. Works as advertised.

Flock Moving to Chrome?

March 3, 2009 · Leave a Comment

I just caught up with the story that Flock may be switching to chrome as its browser engine. I can’t say I’m excited. I love Flock, but part of the reason I love it is I can incorporate all of my firefox plug-ins with a lot of social media hooks.

A Flock without the web developer toolbar, Firebug, yslow, del.icio.us integration, or the opportunity to add any other cool firefox plug-ins doesn’t interest me.
