ViewSource: Officially a bug
It's official: the problem I've been encountering with Flex's ViewSource feaure is a bug. Here's the page from Adobe's official bug reporting system:
It had already been reported, and has been fixed in the next version, which is still under development (expected to be released in Q4-ish of 2009).
It is comforting to know that the next version will fix the problem. But I'm not just comforted; I am validated; encouraged; even elated -- much more than I had expected to be. Given my long hiatus from computer programming (and the failure of Thumtronics), my confidence is not what it once was. I tend to assume that everything that goes wrong is my fault; that I "don't get it;" that this stuff must be really hard.
Yet this ViewSource problem is not my fault. I did understand it. It's a bug. The beam is not in my eye, but rather, is a mote in my brother's. I was right.
That's encouraging! :-)
Onward!
