Just a very quick entry to say that the Swiz Team has pushed version 1.2.0 out the door! This has a few small tweaks and bug fixes, but also adds the ViewAdded and ViewRemoved metadata tags to support the use of the View Mediator pattern.

We also did a bit of consolidation related to conditional compilation. We still have two versions, but one is now just for the Flex 4.x SDK (including the 4.5 Mobile SDK), and the other just for the Flex 3.x SDK. Get it while it's hot!

    Will there be some examples, whether on GitHUB or on your blog about usage of the new metadata tags and best practices for using them?

    Possibly at some point, Nick. But they are really pretty straightforward, and work in a similar manner to Inject, but pass a view instance that has been added rather than a declared bean. The docs discuss the new tags (http://swizframework.jira.com/wiki/display/SWIZ/Vi...), and as you can see, there's not a great deal to explain heh. I should also note that unless you actually want to use the View Mediator pattern, these new tags won't really impact you at all. Personally I don't like coupling my beans to my views like this, so I won't be doing much with these. But there are some people who do, which is why they were added.
