First off thanks for your reply, 1. The corresonding object on the .NET side is a Dictionnary (which is the equivalent of the Object in AS3 I believe). So the properties are not typed.
2. I can't send a string and explicitly cast it to a float because the object i am sending is dynamic (this is why we use the generic Object in AS3). It will have an unknown numer of properties of various types. I could setup a mechanisme whereby i send the type of the property with the value and then parse the object on the .net side and cast each property to it's specific type. But that seems very heavy for this simple problem. I would have excpected weborb to be able to make the difference between an intger and a float in a dynamic object comming from Flex. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, "valdhor" <valdhorli...@...> wrote: > > I don't use .NET (I use PHP) but two things off the top of my head... > > The property of the corresponding object on the .NET side is typed as an int. > > You are actually sending what looks like an int so .NET is coercing it for > you. > > You could also try sending the property as a string and then coercing it to a > float on the .NET side. > > > --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, "gordofeatherfoot" <anthony.janssens@> > wrote: > > > > Hello all, > > > > I don't know if it this is the right place to ask but i have had little > > (not to say no) feedback from the weborb forum, so i apologize if this is > > not appropriate. > > > > I am sending a simple AS3 Object to my .net backend through weborb.
