I wanted to learn what Adobe AIR was all about, so I created an AIR application with the ColdFusion 8 documentation that utilizes the Ext 2.x library. The application allows you to easily view and search the ColdFusion 8 documentation. Best of all, no need to be online - everything is stored locally in the sqlite database - so it runs extremely fast. There are still a couple of minor bugs, and I am hoping to make some future improvements to the apcfdocsplication, so be sure to check back.

Great app, but I notice it is missing a few functions. serializeJSON for one. Any update?
Also - there is no place on this blog (as far as I know) to contact you. I had to search to find the blog entry for the CFDocs air app and post a comment, but wouldn’t it be nice if there was some kind of contact form, or something like that?

This is great! Thanks for taking the time to make this. Are you planning on making further enhancements? If so, the search doesn’t work for me and it would be great if it could remember which monitor it was opened in (and what size).

I just noticed that the search was indeed working for me but that it is really a left truncated filter and not a full text search like I had thought it was. Useful, but if you get bored and want to put in a full text search I know I’d use it

Great AIR app. Spotted some bugs like CFFILE links for actions like RENAME don’t work. Same for CFIMAGE and there are probably others.

This is pretty useful. I’ve been using it almost everyday as a reference. Any plans on writing a tutorial? I’ve been looking everywhere for a tutorial walking through the steps of building an Ext JS interface for an AIR application. I can’t seem to figure it out. Anyway - great job!
