August 13th, 2008Boulevart - Air Debugger - Whitefly Beta
We are currently developing a small AIR application to simplify tracing in flash (and flex)
The idea is pretty much the same as LuminicBox, X-Ray, … but adapted to our needs.
Main features
- Tracing from the browser, IDE or standalone
- Exploring arrays, custom classes, objects, … in multiple depths
- 3 levels for filtering you results (debug, status, error)
- Easy search through your traces
Future wishlist
- Better management of the popups
- Custom classes will output their property names
- Bitmapdata will display a thumbnail
- Sound will add a control bar to test it
- Better design and/or fixing some of the styling errors
- Add an auto-updater
Please note that this is still very much in beta. Errors and unexpected behaviour will occure, but I encourge everyone to use it and send us feedback so we can improve it!
Also note that it is unsigned and does not have an auto-updater yet.
Once i’m back from vacation i’ll fix these things as soon as possible.
Usage
- Add the source files to your classpath.
- Import the classpath:
import be.boulevart.whitefly.Fly;
- Use one of these lines of code to trace your item:
Fly.debug(item);
Fly.status(item);
Fly.error(item);

Good job Raf ^^.
I would like a “clear()” function though.
Everytime I compile now the new information is printed underneath the old ones.

Clear() would indeed been handy
or at least automatic scrolling/tracing above the old ones instead of underneath it.
I also noticed XML’s doesn’t get recognized.
but very handy tool it is, especially in air
