I'm with you Roger... keep it up! Just how will Cairngorm and modular apps co-exist?

Hi Roger, nice to hear it! I and my team faced a big project in this way, in a corporate portal. We created our custom Loader and custom Cairngorm components (to avoid conflicts with Command, VH and so on) for supporting this modular way, loading and unloading applications several times.

Hi Roger,
Any word on when you may release the library into the wild. Is it that different to the zipped example?
I'm keen to work this into a current project.
Thanks for blogging the info on modular app's. Very helpful!
Cheers

Hi Roger,
To be able to load modules to a Flex application and to be able to talk to them as if they are components is a very valuable capability. I was wondering how the project is progressing? When shall we expect another release?

Hello Roger,
Is it possible to compile a module that has references to a ModelLocator class which is defined in the main application? I mean, I would like to use modules but I would also like them to fit and work, once loaded, on my cairngorm application.
Alberto
[You may need to do some magic to hand references around - investigate the low-level AS-based API, and then work up to using the ModuleLoader's "child" property - cast it to an interface that has a ModelLocator setter? --rg]
