CVSDude Backs PureMVC Manifold Project

Futurescale and CVSDude Unveil Infrastructure Support for PureMVC in any Object Oriented Language

PureMVC, the only enterprise-class framework to run on any AS3 platform has now been ported successfully to AS2, C#, Java, ColdFusion, Python and PHP with more ports underway.

Like the original AS3 Reference Implementation, these ports will have demos, utilities and documentation; all created with the expertise of those intimately familiar with the platforms supported by each Port and with the PureMVC framework itself.

Today, Futurescale has unveiled a newly-augmented website that provides for unlimited project expansion.

Cliff Hall, Futurescale CEO and PureMVC Project Architect explains, "Last year, CVSDude, the premier enterprise SVN hosting provider from Australia was kind enough to grant the project an unlimited enterprise account, making it possible for us to take this next big step. The abilty to continuously and reliably support all the demos and utilities that the communities for each port comes up with will ultimately be the limiting factor on just how far the project can go. "

Visiting the PureMVC.org site today you will find that it has been completely reorganized around this new paradigm of Ports, Demos and Utilities. The new structure containing the public code repositories and their interlinked set of wiki documentation is dubbed the 'Manifold Project'.

Considering the expansion of the project, Hall said "PureMVC has proven to be an effective solution for developing RIAs in Flex, Flash, AIR and even FlashLite. How about Silverlight, J2ME, Windows Mobile, .J2EE, PHP, Python, ColdFusion, et al? How will the patterns that have worked well on the client map to the server side?

"Once this is all worked out, how will what will systems built entirely in PureMVC on both the client and server side? What tools will we build to ease the unavoidable development tasks that can be automated? These are the questions that will be answered by The Manifold Project."

Making an open invitiation to developers, Hall continued "If you know PureMVC and any of these other platforms and would like to help that Port take off so you can use it there as well, I encourage you to come join in the fun, we need more Demos and Utilities. At this point we have over 30 projects in the repositories!

"You can start by visiting the wiki page for the Port you are interested in. Get to know the Project Owner and ask what you can do to help."
