Big thanks to the team from Silverdust!

Together with foresee I created an app which enhances the book: ”Domino / Handbook for a sustainable World” with a lot of cool features, to name a few:

• You can read it on the device
• We included TED TALK Videos which are related to the current chapter
• Most of the beautiful graphics of the book can be send via email.
• You can quickly browse through the book via the overview and the linked content section

At least here is the iTunes Link:

And sure there is also a Blog accompanying  the app:

I hope you enjoy the app and have fun sending voodoo sessions.

In South Africa you can’t win without magic!

Using a try catch block everywhere in Flex it is not so easy because a lot of code is executed async by the callLaterDispatcher.
But after looking around a little I found a Variable in UIComponentGlobals.as called catchCallLaterExceptions.
If you set this to true the callLaterDispatcher will run inside a try catch block, and you can set a listener on the systemManager to catch the Error Event.
This is just little tested from my side so I can’t say for sure that it will work always correctly.

UIComponentGlobals.catchCallLaterExceptions = true;
systemManager.addEventListener("callLaterError",globalExeptionCatcher);

The relevant Code is in UiComponent.as

private function callLaterDispatcher(event:Event):void
    {
        // trace(">>calllaterdispatcher " + this);
        UIComponentGlobals.callLaterDispatcherCount++;
 
        // At run-time, callLaterDispatcher2() is called
        // without a surrounding try-catch.
        if (!UIComponentGlobals.catchCallLaterExceptions)
        {
            callLaterDispatcher2(event);
        }
 
        // At design-time, callLaterDispatcher2() is called
        // with a surrounding try-catch.
        else
        {
            try
            {
                callLaterDispatcher2(event);
            }
            catch(e:Error)
            {
                var callLaterErrorEvent:DynamicEvent = new DynamicEvent("callLaterError");
                callLaterErrorEvent.error = e;
                systemManager.dispatchEvent(callLaterErrorEvent);
            }
        }

But this doesn’t work if there is a EventDispatcher involved in the callStack, as  Luke Bayes points out here.
If this is bug in the AVM2? I don’t think so…
But anyway this means it won’t work for events like creationComplete etc.
