Re: [flexcoders] Re: Developing Flex against CF Server
Dale, you can use runtime definition without the services-config.xml. please see Mike Nimer's blog for details: http://blog.mikenimer.com/index.cfm/2007/1/10/Bye-bye-services HUa On Jan 2, 2008 11:01 PM, Dale Fraser [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Thanks So do you need to do -services C:\CFusionMX7\wwwroot\web-inf\flex\services-config.xml Because you selected a basic project rather than a CF project?

Flex Builder does need more intuitive and support different develop/production scenarios, especially where the developer isn't running locally or even on a local network. It can be confusing. It is assumed that you're using a dev version of CF on your dev box. (ideal scenario). Mapped drive works great when on a LAN, but doesn't if I'm deploying to a remote server/host. In my case, I find using the Basic project, not CF option, is easiest for me for remote server work. On my local PC, I created a folder path C:\CFusionMX7\wwwroot\web-inf\flex\services-config.xml CF8 in your case Then after compiling/running locally in Flex, I FTP/RDP the /bin to the remote server. This lets me build locally and compile locally, then test on the server with live data. Not ideal, but it works. But, you do need to right-click on the project, select properties and enter the following in the complier arguments -services C:\CFusionMX7\wwwroot\web-inf\flex\services-config.xml It's a workaround that works for me. When I'm in the office, on a LAN, I map a drive, like Mike suggests.

Let's call it Z drive. Do in your Flex settings you write Z:\ColdFusion8\ for the path. I bet you could also use UNC paths, such as \\server\c$\ColdFusion8\.

What am I supposed to put in here, the server one I assume. It fails of course as the locally C:\ColdFusion8 is not available. So how do you configure a Flex project that works with a development server rather than a local development environment? Regards Dale Fraser
Re: [flexcoders] Flex Remoting
Hello Giles,
for you second question, you can setup channels at run time
// setup coldfusion AMFChannel
private function setupCFChannel():void{
cSet = new ChannelSet();
var customChannel:Channel = new AMFChannel(my-cfamf,
http://yourcfservername/flex2gateway/;);
// Add the Channel to the ChannelSet.
cSet.addChannel(customChannel);
myService.channelSet = cSet;
}
mx:RemoteObject
id=myService
destination=ColdFusion
source=cfc.testGateway
showBusyCursor=true
mx:method name=getAll
result=handleResult(event)
fault=Alert.show(event.fault.message) /
/mx:RemoteObject
hope this helps.

Hi Guys
I've started looking into Flex Remoting again. I looked into this a
while ago but didn't get very far. I gave up when I realised that the
production server here CF 7.1 so Flex Remoting wouldn't work anyway.
I'm now pretty confident that I'll be able to updrage production to CF
7.2 so now I want to get my flex remoting working.
I know the basics of how it's supposed to work, you create a new
project and point it at the web-inf/flex directory and it builds an
xml file for you.
I've got 2 problems with that. For a start I already have a large
project built and don't really want to re-start the project just to
get the wizard at the start to set up the xml for me.
Is there any way of converting an existing non-CF remoting project
into a CF remoting one?
My second problem is that I only have FTP access to the dev box where
CF runs so I can't point flex at the web-inf/flex directory.
How do I get round this?
I hope someone can help.
Thanks
Giles.
