Hi,

I have a SDK 3.5 Flex application, and I'm creating a component using TLF. What is be oldest configuration I can sue in order to be able to load the new component into the Flex 3.5 application and still be able to use the TLF?

If I'm going to use the TLF, should I use sdk 4? is there another way to use it with an older sdk?

Tks.

TLF is straight actionscript, and doesn't depend in any way on the Flex framework. You should be able to use it in any Flex 3 version as long as you're targeting Flash Player 10.0 and above, but this has not been extensively tested. In Flex 3 you'll be limited to using the TLF classes directly or making your own components based on those classes.

In Flex SDK 4 you have access to the spark set of components that use TLF. These components have a lot of functionality already built in that you would have to code yourself in Flex 3.
