Steven,

I know you had first posted on this 10 days ago, but it just came to my
attention that Flex with .NET and Web Services is covered in the following
online training:

Flex 2 Beyond the Basics with: David Gassner
http://movielibrary.lynda.com/html/modPage.asp?ID=290
 11. Working with .NET

If you do not already have an account with Lynda.com, you can get a 1 day
free pass here:
http://www.lynda.com/freepass/24

It looks like the training at the link above only cover retrieving data, but
once you have that all working extending it to do insert, update and delete
should be fairly straight forward.

Please post back and let us know if you have your Flex/.NET/database
configuration working.

Steven,

As Tracy has posted, Flex w/ .NET w/ SQL Server works.

You asked for a sample app.  I do not know of one where the back end logic
is a web service in .NET, but I will check around.  I will post back if I
find one.

On the other hand, if you can point us to a sample .NET webservice that
includes update/delete, maybe we can throw together in Flex the MXML and AS
to reference it.

[flexcoders] is there a sample to update/delete records in a database server through webservice?

2006-12-05 Thread Steven Xu
Hi Folks,

There are many samples showing how to get/download the records/XML from a 
webservice , however none of them talking about how to change the server data 
while user modify the Datagrid / List in the flash application through 
webservice.

Is the webservice way to update server data is too slow, more complex, hardly 
implement?  I am new to flex. Flex application does so exciting interface, but 
how can I get my data saved in server database through webservice.

Thanks for guiding me to the right direction, any sample will be appreciated.

Steve

2006-12-05 Thread Tracy Spratt
The way to get data into the server is the same as the way to get it
out: Call a web service operation/method and pass the data to it.

 

How that is handled on the server depends on the implementation of the
web service. 

 

It is easy to sample get data from a server, but to have an example of
saving data on a server, you would need to own the server.

2006-12-05 Thread greg h

Steven,

Could you let us know what you use on your back end?  e.g. Java, ColdFusion,
PHP, .NET, etc?  And also what database you use?

If we know what you use for backend logic we can better suggest samples that
include update/delete logic.

btw ... for ColdFusion, Flex Builder 2 includes wizards that can read your
SQL database's schema and automatically generate the necessary Flex and
ColdFusion code to the SQL DML (Data Modification Language, i.e. INSERT,
UPDATE and DELETE).

btw #2 ... as Tracy suggested, there is no problem doing update or delete
through a webservice.  Personally, I prefer mx:RemoteObject, but
mx:WebService should work just as good.

   Best regards,

   g

And, if you are using the term web service in the generic way,
consider HTTPService instead of SOAP-based WebService.

RE: [flexcoders] is there a sample to update/delete records in a database server through webservice?

2006-12-05 Thread Tracy Spratt
HTTPService is cross platform as well and is easier to work with than
SOAP-based WebService. And theoretically faster, since SOAP adds to the
payload.

 

I am using Flex to update SQL Server 2003 via HTTPService and ASP.NET
1.1 and ADO.NET very successfully.

 

If you do not plan to publish your service to third party consumers, you
really do not need the overhead of SOAP.

 

I have used all three methods of creating the update query I mentioned
in my previous post.  Building dynamic sql on the client and a
passthrough on the server is easiest, but keep in mind the security
issue.
