How FusionCharts and FusionMaps for Flex work internally?

FusionCharts and FusionMaps are coded in ActionScript 2 and run in ActionScript Virtual Machine 1 in the Flash Player. However, FusionCharts for Flex, is coded in Flex (ActionScript 3) and runs in ActionScript Virtual Machine 2. FusionCharts for Flex handles the cross AVM communication between the Flex component and chart/map SWF files, without you having to bother about it. Internally, both FusionCharts and FusionMaps take data and configuration in XML format. When you use the FusionCharts for Flex API to build charts from data stored in Flex Arrays, XML List or Model, everything is serialized to XML internally.
