You might also want to consider just using a remote object you've
created entirely in actionscript. That way, if something changes you
don't have to recompile the project. Something like this:
package com.rw.adBlankenship.remoting
{
import mx.messaging.Channel;
import mx.messaging.ChannelSet;
import mx.messaging.channels.AMFChannel;
import mx.rpc.AsyncToken;
import mx.rpc.Responder;
import mx.rpc.events.FaultEvent;
import mx.rpc.events.ResultEvent;
import mx.rpc.remoting.RemoteObject;
public class GetProfileCount
{
private static var _ro:RemoteObject=new RemoteObject
();
private static var
_channels:ChannelSet=defaultChannelSet();
//sets up default channel set
private static function defaultChannelSet():ChannelSet
{
return new ChannelSet;
}
//allows channels to be added from anywhere in the
application
public static function set endpoint
(gateway:String):void {
var channel:AMFChannel;
//look to see if the channel is already there
for (var i:int=0;
i<_channels.channels.length; i++){
channel=_channels.channels[i];
if (channel.endpoint==gateway) return;
}
//add channel
channel = new AMFChannel('pcChannel'+i,
gateway);
_channels.addChannel(channel);
}
public static function get endpoint():String{
return Channel(_channels.channels
[_channels.channels.length-1]).endpoint;
}
/* Execute method. If calling object passes in
result and fault handlers,
those are used. Otherwise, the defaults are
used. */
public static function execute(categoryID:int=-1,
searchString:String=null,
resultHandler:Function=null,
faultHandler:Function=null):void{
if (_channels.channels.length==0) {
throw new Error('No endpoint
specified for GetCategories command Remote Object');
}
//set up remote object
_ro.channelSet=_channels;
_ro.destination = 'AMF_Category';
_ro.source = 'AMF_Category';
//set up a token so we can tell the result of
this call from other calls
var token:AsyncToken=_ro.getServicesCount
(categoryID>-1?categoryID: null, searchString);
//assign the result and fault handlers from
the calling object
token.addResponder(new Responder(!
(resultHandler==null)?resultHandler:countLoaded,
!
(faultHandler==null)? faultHandler: loadFailed));
}
/* trace out the return since we don't know
where to put it */
private static function countLoaded
(e:ResultEvent):void{
trace(e.result.toString() + ' profiles');
}
private static function loadFailed(e:FaultEvent):void{
trace(e.fault);
}
}//end of class
}
