[flexcoders] Howto build Blazeds sample for websphere
Hi - I wish I could post the answer to the subject. However, I can not. The sample is kind of wierd to me. I would like it to have two "halves": a server half and a client half. In order to be prudent, expeditious, whatever, they seem to have combined everything. So has anyone ported this to websphere and if so could they take the time to post the necessary steps to do so (successfully). I have tried and thus far, have not yet met with the results I seek [so ok, I can't say I failed, so what?] thanks for any help/insight/suggestions/or best step-by-step directions! jpg
[flexcoders] Enterprise use of web services
Hello, I am new to the list and sorry if this is a repeat question! I am wondering about the recommended 'best practice' on the use of web services in an enterprise Flex (2) application. Looking around I found the Kiwi project which seems to suggest that (with proper use of Cairngorm) the View (mxml file) never needs to call a web service. Rather these should be delegated to the server side. While that makes sense to me, I was wondering if this was now widely considered acceptable. For our application, a very related question is how to handle Authentication. Not how to 'do' authentication, but how securely manage it. More directly related to the above web service discussion, so if I am only calling web services from the Server, but those web services require a User to be authenticated first, what is the best practice? Thanks for any discussion or pointers to previous ones.
