My first Cocomo Compile!

Adobe today released Cocomo.

Codename "Cocomo" is a Platform as a Service that allows Flex developers to easily add real-time social capabilities into their RIA (rich Internet applications). Comprised of both Flex-based client components and a hosted services infrastructure, Cocomo allows you to build real-time, multi-user applications with Flex in less time than ever before. And because Acrobat.com hosts the service, issues like deployment, maintenance, and scalability are taken care of for you.

To start playing with Cocomo create your developer account and login to the console. You'll then be able to manage rooms for your applications as well as viewing Reports!

Just to try it out - I compiled the LoginDialog example of the new cocomo package. This might give you a better impression of what cocomo is!

LoginDialog:

Launch the example!

Don't ask for sources! The LoginDialog sources are located in the cocomo examples folder.

    Sounds cool.

    I’d love to play with this if it only was possible to register. Tried two hours ago and now on different machines - no luck.

    I can’t get past the Account Name entry due to some crappy code. On the debug player I get this error:

    TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
    at com.adobe.rtc.portal.ui::SDKAccountCreate/onCreateAccountResult()
    at com.adobe.hs.amfgateway2::AMFConnector/onResult()

    :(

    Hey Jensa, we’re hearing isolated reports of this issue - if you’re logging in with your adobeID, and it asks you for your account name, try a different name than the one you’re using.

    We’re definitely working to resolve the issue - sorry for the inconvenience.

    Yeah. Got it working now. If you use the Debug Player, you’ll actually see two error messages. The first is a non-handled “null” exception.

  8. Coding with Cocomo - Tutorial Part I 2009-02-6, 3:01 pm

    [...] In preparation for my upcoming presentation at 360|Flex, I’ve decided to write a series of simple tutorials/examples on Adobe Cocomo.

    Most or all of the existing examples seem to show only how to use built-in whiteboards and chat tools. Those are cool, but for any real app, we’re going to want to do something custom. [...]
