Twitter Search Demo using Robotlegs, Signals and the Application Signal Bus
I’ve been using Robotlegs and Signals recently and they really are awesome to work with however I still had to create a Signal for each Signal that was dispatched through the application, which is more times than you would need to create a custom event. I was thinking about an approach to get around this problem when I saw some tweets from Jonnie Hallman about an Application Signal Bus. Luckily he was kind enough to post the following gist to demonstrate.
So I thought I’d update my Twitter Search Demo to demonstrate how it could be used. As with the previous posts, click the image below to view the demo. View source is enabled and I’ve included everything for you to compile.

Great demo! Really digging your stuff lately. Small typo in the link on the image, though, it includes 2 “s” in SignalBus.
March 16th, 2010@Troy Good catch. I’ve updated the post now so it should be ok – that’s what I get for posting quickly! I’m glad you like it!
March 16th, 2010Demo, not working?
September 25th, 2010I’m unable to view the demo. Is it still up?
When I try to view it, there’s a flex preloader that never finishes, and Error#2046 appears at the bottom of the page.
thanks
October 20th, 2010Hi guys,
Sorry for the late reply, thanks for the messages about the demos not working. I’ll try and get them up as soon as possible. It turns out there’s an issue with anything built using Flash Builder 4 beta that uses run time libraries.
In the mean time you can download the source code at the link below, which will work fine.

I’ve now republished the Robotlegs examples, so they’re all working now. Give me a shout if you have any questions.
