Interesting. Any thoughts on Granite Data Services' approach? There is a custom externalization process for Java Enum objects, and a granite Enum class in ActionScript that all your (generated) Enums extend. The enum class takes care of reading/writing. The writeExternal() method just writes the name of the Enum; readExternal() tries to find the name of the object in the constants defined by the Enum. The RemoteAlias metadata is set up as for a standard Java class.
Are we asking for trouble in using this method? Is there something inherently dangerous here? -- Maciek Sakrejda Truviso, Inc. http://www.truviso.com -----Original Message----- From: Seth Hodgson <shodg...@adobe.com> Reply-To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com <flexcoders@yahoogroups.com> Subject: RE: [flexcoders] Java enum in Flex3 Date: Wed, 4 Feb 2009 16:20:33 -0800 BlazeDS and LCDS roundtrip Java enums to the client and back as Strings.
