How long in the future will support AS2?

Hello

I've developed Flash animals for almost a decade, I consider myself advanced AS2... I am also very advanced in PHP...

Throughout all my projects, I have always used Flash, AS2, mySQL and PHP and have done tons of applications, some mission critical, w / this combo...

When AS3 has implemented, I was excited, until I tried to learn it and tried to develop in the context of this. It's not really a BIG BREAKTHROUGH of AS2 AS3, this is more than a COMPLETE CHANGE... in the habits, by attaching codes, etc... While I was trying to who kissed, and I don't really... for months... I can't adapt to it in a practical and efficient way... I understand for large projects and scalable than as3 has an advantage of foreground... but for s-m projects, AS3 just makes things more complicated than they are... and it takes me a lot more than time and effort to achieve simple things I wana... even just the shortcuts to the KEY ESC + who did my coding FAST (esc + st = stop()) was something that I did not so much...  So I redide my project and I simply went back to AS2 and still happy with it... as long as I know the limitations, especially in performance, I'm ok.

I continued to build a lot of the inventory using FLASH/AS2 interface and PHP MYSQL backened accounting systems... It is robust, secure, and all I need and do it, I can achieve... I've never had any complaint (Finally, except for some light stuffs here and there the limits of the datagrid control, but it's ok)

Now I embark on another project, w/c will require long term support... that the software will be used for at least 3-4 years and I will continue to improve its features and interface...

That being said, my experience with these types of projects, I AM COMPLETELY CONVINCED that ALL I NEED TO BUILD and MAINTAIN such software is all FEASIBLE/AVAILABLE w / my current working environment, the AS2/PHP/MySQL... but I'm not sure, is ADOBE FLASH PLAYER for AS2 special SUPPORT because a lot of the GUI of my software work on the browsers to be cross compatible (Windows/Ubuntu desktop computers)

So my question...

I read the blog of 2008 in ADobe

http://www.Adobe.com/devnet/ActionScript/articles/six_reasons_as3.html

Quote;

[img] Backward compatibility and the technologies of the future

If, after reading all of these benefits, you always want to learn ActionScript 3.0, then you can continue to write code ActionScript 2.0 to develop your projects. But as the Flash platform evolves, good number of cool technologies will be available in ActionScript 3.0. For example, technologies such as Adobe Flex 3 and Adobe AIR require ActionScript 3.0, so if you want to work with these technologies, working on a older version of ActionScript isn't really an option. [line]

SO it says here that backward compatibility will be maintained, and I don't like what's new... I have everything I need in AS2...

BUT... This is a 2008 article, and I don't know if he meant backward compatibility to stay until 2020 mean? Laughing out loud

Anyone got any ideas on that?

Thank you

TJ

Yes, but as I said, it would be very likely that the Flash Player will stop an AS2 content... There is a world of computing already out there who should stay steady in the future, not only will you.

  • Satellite Pro A100 - how to activate the shortcut keyboard-support on Vista?

    Hello. I've recently updated my satellite pro a100-828 to windows vista, and things work well to a large extent with two exceptions:

    1. I can't figure out how to activate the shortcut keyboard-support: media-keys to the left and the fn keys do nothing. There seems to be no shortcut keyboard-utility for windows vista in the drivers * tion. So what to do?
    2. the standby electricity utility is not available, which is good because of the power saver new vista. Except that I can't dim the screen, so the battery does not last me too long. How can I do this?

    Thanks in advance

  • How long is the Apple support its routers for?

    Basically. I'm looking for a new router I would like to know how much time Apple support their routers for, I know bugs and security flaws are found quite often so I would like to know how long it will be before a router would stop receiving updates as I know another router factory there once a router is the end of life--what some firmware updates will be available.

    Thank you.

    In general, Apple will provide support for 5-7 years after a product is discontinued.  But they must not offer updates to the firmware at all once a product is discontinued.

    For example, the 5th generation AirPort Extreme was abandoned in June 2013. No update firmware of the product have been since then.

    With regard to the flaws of security and bugs... it isn't usually the router that is the problem... it's almost always the operating system of the computer.

  • Satellite P300 - 1 c 9 - How long works the battery?

    Hello

    I was wondering if someone could let me know how long I should wait for the power of the battery on my satellite p300 - 1 c 9 to last?

    The laptop is now 11 months, again it only lasted a meager 1 hour, now its down to 44 mins which seems to be very short.

    It doesn't seem to be the point of a lot having a laptop that must be connected whenever you use!
    I talked to toshiba tech when he was nine and was advised to unload a few time completely to form it and he said he would get me another 10% (wow, a whole 6 minutes), which made no difference.

    look forward to hearing any suggestions.

    Hello

    Sooner or later each battery will die and lose the own performance that s nothing unusual

    You should know that the battery working time depends on the use of the laptop.
    The battery much faster running high-performance applications that need many remedies of material.
    All parts of equipment must be able to! CPU, GPU cooling modules, display, etc.

    Reduce the brightness of the screen and set the CPU or GPU to lower performance in order to save the battery.
    You can do this in Win7/Vista power management!

  • How long does the warranty repair service?

    Hello
    I bought my laptop on 2007-07-06, and a few days later I noticed that my RTC battery isn't working correctly, so I go back to my laptop for Toshiba on 25.07.2007. On the State of the Service Toshiba site http://weblord.toshiba-tro.de/WeblordTracking/default.aspx, I see that they have received the 27.07.2007.

    The following entry, which is 30.07.2007, said that repair is underway and nothing else. So, does anyone know how long can take a battery change, and how long should I wait for my laptop?

    Hello

    I put t know how long the repair will take in your case, but in my opinion, it depends on the type of malfunction, the availability of parts and the country.

    In your case, everything seems to be ok. Repair makes progress.

    If you wish you could make a call to the ASP in your country. Maybe they will know more about this procedure
