[flexcoders] Flex accessing ColdFusion Remoting service on a seperate server?

2007-04-16 Thread Bill Brown

I am trying to get a Flex application to read a getAll() method from a
ColdFusion Remoting service on a seperate server.

My current (working) set-up has the Flex .swf on the same server as the
ColdFusion Remoting service.
I would like to host the .swf on a different server, yet still access the
same ColdFusion Remoting service.
I'm sure this somehow involves the crossdomain.xml file and web/INF, but I
don't know what magical combination of tweaks are required to get this
working.
Does anyone know if any tutorials to get this working?

Thanks,
BB

By default, the crossdomain.xml file would live in the webroot on the
server hosting the ColdFusion remoting service and in this policy file
it would allow access from SWFs served from some other server.
 
http://www.mycoldfusionserver.com/crossdomain.xml
 
...which would contain:
 
cross-domain-policy
allow-access-from domain=*.myswfserver .com /
/cross-domain-policy
 
Your MXML RemoteObject tag in you SWF might look like this:
 
mx:RemoteObject id=myRO destination=ColdFusion
endpoint=http://www.mycoldfusionserver.com/flex2gateway/;
result=resultHandler(event) fault=faultHandler(event) /
 
And the URL to load your SWF might look like this:
 
http://www.myswfserver.com/myapplication/something.swf
