Evening all, When you make a call to createGatewayConnection() from within the Action Script, what happens? What I mean is, does Flash make a call to the CFC purely to check if it exists and then discards anything, or does it hold a reference to the new instance?
What we'd like to do is PUSH data to the flash component, rather than PULL it from the server... We could set up a timer on the component to re-cal la function in a CFC every x seconds, but what we'd rather do is (somehow) have the CFC inform flash that an update has happened. As far as I can work out, it's not possible. Am I right in this thinking? Alternatively, is there a way around it? Say having flash call the CFC straight away (once) and the CFC will wait until an update has occurred, then return the new data to Flash, whereupon Flash will update and call the CFC again, which will wait etc etc etc... How about creating an instance of a java class on the CFC call and storing that in a global scope somewhere, which does nothing but wait() until an update has occurred, whereupon CF will call a method on that java object to break out of the wait statement, so the initial CFC call will then complete etc... Would that work? I sure there must be an easier way... Pah, what a thing to be doing on a Monday.
