U.S. government profiles of countries and territories around

shows a nice combination of the controls available in the

ILOG Elixir toolkit, including 2D and 3D charts, a tree view,

interactive maps, and more. For more information on the

ILOG Elixir toolkit, visit http://www.ilog.com/products/elixir/.

Desktop Applications

Not only is Flex good for making great web applications, but

you also can use it to build desktop applications using exactly

the same Flex toolkit. To demonstrate I’ll show two desktop

applications. The first is a chat application, shown in Fig-

ure 2-12. The application is called Pownce (http://

pownce.com/) and it sits on the desktop using Adobe’s AIR

technology.
