Hello all,
I am trying to create a blog editor with flex and php. I am just
learning about XML-RPC, and want to use this in my flex app. I have
set up a XML-RPC server, created my response handling functions, etc.
Everything is working fine except that I cannot figure out how to
send the RPC method I want to call with a regular MXML httprequest.
Here is the example from the documentation,
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!-- fds\rpc\HttpServiceParamBind.mxml. Compiles -->
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml";
verticalGap="20">
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
import mx.utils.ArrayUtil;
]]>
</mx:Script>
<mx:HTTPService
id="employeeSrv"
url="employees.jsp">
<mx:request>
<deptId>{dept.selectedItem.data}</deptId>
</mx:request>
</mx:HTTPService>
<mx:ArrayCollection
id="employeeAC"
source=
"{ArrayUtil.toArray
(employeeSrv.lastResult.employees.employee)}"/>
<mx:HBox>
<mx:Label text="Select a department:"/>
<mx:ComboBox id="dept" width="150">
<mx:dataProvider>
<mx:ArrayCollection>
<mx:source>
<mx:Object label="Engineering" data="ENG"/>
<mx:Object label="Product Management"
data="PM"/>
<mx:Object label="Marketing" data="MKT"/>
</mx:source>
</mx:ArrayCollection>
</mx:dataProvider>
</mx:ComboBox>
<mx:Button label="Get Employee List" click="employeeSrv.send
();"/>
</mx:HBox>
<mx:DataGrid dataProvider="{employeeAC}"
width="100%">
<mx:columns>
<mx:DataGridColumn dataField="name" headerText="Name"/>
<mx:DataGridColumn dataField="phone" headerText="Phone"/>
<mx:DataGridColumn dataField="email" headerText="Email"/>
</mx:columns>
</mx:DataGrid>
</mx:Application>
I understand how to send value pairs, bind data, send the request,
etc. I just cannot figure out how to call the RPC server method that
I want to use.
Hope my question is clear, thanks in advance for any help :)
