RE: [flexcoders] Anyone Using a Remote CF Server with Flex 2, Remoting?

[Peter Farland]

Nope, the fact that server B has a /crossdomain.xml file is not relevant
and not even known at compile time. In fact, for RPC services like
RemoteObject, WebService and HTTPService, compiling against
services-config.xml is only a convenience. The MXML compiler uses this
information to generate some ActionScript code for you so it saves you
from having to construct the list of mx.messaging.Channel
implementations used to construct a ChannelSet (it takes a "set" because
it allows you specify multiple channels and fail over to the next
channel in in the event that one fails to connect). If you're
comfortable with Channels you can programmatically create your own
instances instead.

no way!  I thought that was for webservices or REST calls only.
Interesting, So I can have a SWF served from server A that connects to
server B via remoteobject if server B has a crossdomain file?   So, do I
need to compile against a services-config.xml that has the URI hardcoded
to server B to do this?

Re: [flexcoders] Anyone Using a Remote CF Server with Flex 2, Remoting?

[Simeon Bateman]

You got it doug.  Thats why i copy the services-config.xml file to a local
directory in my project and use the -services to tell flex builder how to
find it.  When I create  a new project I tell flex builder its a normal
project then I add the -services as a compiler argument.

This allows me to develop different applications for different servers
without having to manage them all in my main cf services-config file.

I had similar trouble:
http://www.flashcomguru.com/index.cfm/2006/11/11/flex2remoting
 
Read all the comments before you try anything.
 
If I remember correctly I managed to use a remote CF box *without* having to
use any services-config file whatsoever (which is what I wanted to do).
I almost lost my mind back then... :-) Endpoint, config files,
destinations... hh how complicated does this look when you glance at the
docs?

1. Do you have a crossdomain.xml file in the webroot of the server
hosting the flex2gateway endpoint allowing access for SWFs loaded in
other domains?
 
2. I think you are relying on the default context root for your cold
fusion deployment, if so, try removing the {context-root} token out of
your channel-definition in services-config.xml (or alternatively provide
a value for the command line args -context-root "" )

I have taken the time to read past entries on this topic, but the issues
were slightly different than mine and didn't offer enough of a solution
to help resolve my issue.

In my HelloFromColdfusion.mxml file is the following code:

In a subdirectory in the webroot called flex2btb, in the flex directory
is MyService.cfc. I have the crossdomain.xml file in my webroot also.
The code is very basic:

Re: [flexcoders] Anyone Using a Remote CF Server with Flex 2, Remoting?

[Patrick Mineault]

It's your services-config.xml that is off. Try using this:










*







http://localhost/amfphp/gateway.php"; 
class="flex.messaging.endpoints.AMFEndpoint"/>




Set destination to 'amfphp' and 'endpoint' to your ColdFusion endpoint 
in the RemoteObject tag. Then you can change the 'amfphp' names to 
'coldFusion' if it bothers you ;)
