MXML is used mainly to declaratively lay-out the interface of applications, and can also be used to implement complex business logic and rich internet application behaviors. Common practices are employed in the language syntax, such as the use of curly braces ({) to force the computer to evaluate an expression, and dot notation to 'drill-down' through an object. MXML is often used with Flex Server , which dynamically compiles it into standard binary SWF files. However, Adobe's Flex Builder IDE and free Flex SDK can also generate SWF files from MXML for use without Flex Server. There is also a PHP PEAR Package called XML_MXML which is a Framework to build Adobe Flex applications. MXML is considered a proprietary standard due to its tight integration with Adobe technologies. It is like XAML in this respect. No published translators exist for converting an MXML document to another user interface language such as UIML , XUL , XAML , or SVG (as of 2006).
