You could also store your authentication credentials in a file(xml?) on
the server.
The starting place is to choose your back-end platform/language(Java,
php, CF,.net, etc). Then choose the RPC protocol(RemoteObject,
HTTPService, WebService) you will use between flex and that platform.
Then choose your Flex client UI style( ViewStack, pop-up, etc.)

Subject: re: [flexcoders] Re: Login / Password Form
I used a database and RemoteObject/Web Services to check a CFC with the
query to see if the username and password matches and returns any info I
need then I have something like this:
public function loginHandler(e:ResultEvent):void {
userData = e.result as ArrayCollection;
if (userData.length == 1){
//Whatever you want to do.
}else{
username_txt.text = ;
password_txt.text = ;
Alert.show(Incorrect username and/or password.
Please try again.,Login Error);
}
}
I hide the login box and show the rest of the app which I have wrapped
in a canvas which visible is set to false.
If you dont want to have a database you could use an Array or Object to
store username and passwords hardcoded and check against them. Or if you
have just one username/password you could just use something like:
public function login(username:String, password:String):void {
if (username == someusername || password =
somepassword){
//Your code to do whatever you want.
}else{
username_txt.text = ;
password_txt.text = ;
Alert.show(Incorrect username and/or password.
Please try again.,Login Error);
}
}

Hello,
I am searching a code source exemple for a classical login / password
form in a flex application.
Did I need absolutely a database to store Passwords ?
Thank you,
