CF8 and Batik (for SVG)

CF8 and Batik (for SVG)

By barneyb on September 5, 2007

I just discovered that CF8 ships with a more complete Batik than CF7 did. Out of the box it's capable of transcoding SVG graphics to PNGs, which CF7's implementation wasn't capable of doing. With CF7 you had to move the partial Batik that came bundled and replace it with a full version to [...]

By barneyb on September 1, 2007

I just deployed a Flex app to an SSL secured host, and ran into some issues getting AMF over SSL working.  Googling turned up the answers, but in rather fragmented form.  So I'm coalescing them here.  In a nutshell, you have to create a new channel (my-secure-amf) that uses the secured versions of the AMF [...]
