Can you double check your usage of Object.registerClass? Object.registerClass("testuser.Test","Test");
Should be Object.registerClass("testuser.Test", Test); -----Original Message----- From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of jgraham_us Sent: Thursday, December 15, 2005 2:25 PM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: [flexcoders] Re: passing Map from Flex to server side Going from server to client appears to be working fine. My server classes do not implement Map or Collection. I have tried very simple cases, and the Maps are not empty. Here is an example. Test.java ------------------------------------------------------ package testuser; public class Test{ Map<String, User> users; Map<String, User> getUsers() { ... } void setUsers(Map<String, Users> users) { ... } } ------------------------------------------------------- Test.as ------------------------------------------------------- class Test { Object.registerClass("testuser.Test","Test"); var users : Array; ... } So are you saying that my object on the server side, users must be of type ASObject, or do I have to implement some intermediate type then build my server side Test object from this intermediate type that is an ASObject? Basically I need to get the Test object on the client side possibly update it and then send that same object back and have it be a Test (server side object) when I get it back on the server.
