Re: [Flashcoders] flash and ASP.NET (ryanm)
Interesting approach, Ryan. So, the big advantage here is cost (free!) with the big disadvantage being that we're limited to string data types on the return. Thanks for sharing. The other way is to use the XML object. You can put all of your return data in XML and compress it. XML is extremely redundant, so it compresses very small, and the decompression is handled by the browser automatically. With some creative use of the byte array you could probably still pass binary data (this will be a great help with images stored in a database). I also regularly use bitmasks in XML, you just have to convert them to numbers before using them. Serialization isn't a big deal, you just write a recursive function that serializes/deserializes your objects as XML and use it in your gateway class. Remoting is a convenience, from my perspcective, and not all clients can afford to pay for conveniences. In my opinion, remoting often allows the developer be lazy when they shouldn't be. I'm not saying that remoting is bad, it just lets you spend less time thinking about the transport layer, which is often a good thing, but it can let you be lazy when you should be putting more effort into an efficient transport layer. Rather than passing whole objects back and forth simply because you can, it is often more efficient to figure out how to pass the smallest amount of information in the simplest form, and then it comes down to building a well thought out transport layer. Some apps benefit greatly from remoting, but usually those are apps that depend on real-time data updates, and not your usual DB read/write apps. If you don't need real-time updates, why spend the resources on it? If you don't need a response from a "save to database" request to move on, why not just send it off asynch and let a background listener worry about whether it saved correctly or not? In fact, if you don't need to know your data was saved to move on, why not queue DB changes and send them out in scheduled batches, and worry about DB errors when the batch finishes, saving the end-user bandwidth and time, not to mention keeping traffic volume on the server down? It all depends on the needs of the app, of course, but I find that in most cases, remoting would often be easier on me but that doesn't necessarily mean it serves the app best. ryanm ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders

RE: [Flashcoders] flash and ASP.NET
Well fluorine started as another projector extender library written in c#. The communication between the host application and the flash player uses flash remoting (the host application becomes a "mini webserver" by using .net remoting channel sinks) http://fluorine.thesilentgroup.com Now a big part of the library was actually an AMF implementation. So we split it, there is an old version of the remoting gateway (http://fluorine.thesilentgroup.com/download.htm) called "Remoting for .NET Test"...but that version was experimental and the first step only Since then the remoting gateway was further developed to cover all the functionality needed and we are in testing phase, hope to release it soon -Original Message- From: Paul Hart [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, December 07, 2005 6:04 PM To: Flashcoders mailing list Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] flash and ASP.NET That sounds interesting.

Why can't the little flash file just *sit* someplace that has Flash Remoting?

Re: [Flashcoders] flash and ASP.NET
I have written a .NET based web service(for a game scoreboard) which I use to read/write to a SQL database from flash, the type of data source doesn't matter to .NET, if you want I can package it up and send the source to you? Let me know because I'll need to remove sensitive connection string details etc. I can also send you the scoreboard as2 class which work well with the web service.

Re: [Flashcoders] flash and ASP.NET
does it have to be asp? you can run php on IIS and php has ODBC libraries http://us2.php.net/odbc so flash -> amfphp -> ODBC bingo. :) also you can run apache on windows, you dont have to run IIS. It depends on what your constraints are i suppose. martin Serge Jespers wrote: Have a look at http://www.openamf.org Don't know if this can help you but it's also a third party remoting solution.
