"remoteobject which requires FDS"
RemoteObject use in CF does NOT require FDS.

Yes Cairngorm store uses remoteobject which requires FDS, however
they don't make you data management services. I would be intersted
if any one might have any tips or sample app using data management
services with Cairngorm.

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Cairngorm FDS Sample

[Dimitrios Gianninas]

Ok I'll chime in here since I use FDS with Cairngorm. Examples taken from the 
first Flex 2.0 app we built.

First off we initialize the DS in the model that it relates too:

public class ConsumerModel {

   public var consumerDS:DataService;

   

   public function ConsumerModel() {
 consumerDS = new DataService( "consumerDS" );
 consumerDS.autoCommit = false;
 // set other properties first
   }
}

Then in the commands that we need to, we use the DS to perform the operations 
that the command requires, as an example update:

public class SaveConsumerCmd {

   public function execute( event:CairngormEvent ):void {
 ...
 var token:AsynToken = ConsumerModel.getInstance().consumerDS.commit();
 token.addResponders( this );
   }
}

Now the examples are simple, but working with a DataService and a RemoteObject 
is different. So I don't use delegates, but because u can set responders for 
each operation, thus u can have every command handle each DataService operation 
as it sees fit.

Hope that helps,

Subject: [flexcoders] Re: Cairngorm FDS Sample
 
So far I'm finding that using FDS mixed with Cairngorm is pretty
difficult.  

1. When I define my services in the services.xml file, if I specify
'autoSyncEnabled' in the XML declaration, it throws a null pointer
exception.  It looks to me like things are getting initialized out of
order.

2. I've had to specify fault handlers in the services.xml file if you
want to user 'fault' attributes in the service declaration tags.  If I
do not do this, then some errors do not get handled at all, even if I
have a fault handler method declared correctly on my responder (ie my
calling command)

3. Many of the solutions I read about on this forum that show how to
handle calls to the backend in FDS are not easily applied to a
Cairngorm structure.  For example, it is hard to call
service.revertChanges in my fault routine because my fault handler
method is in my command object and the service call is made in my
delegate object.  I have to create a reference to the service using
the ServiceLocator solely to call revertChanges in the event of a fault.

Anyone else experience these problems using FDS and Cairngorm
together?  If not, I'd love to see some examples showing me what I'm
doing wrong. 

Thanks
