I start the service in Actionscript with:[code]My issue is that the server that my WSDL is on, seems to be very slow, and the WSDL file is very large. So it takes around 5 seconds to initially grab the WSDL file. This wouldn't be too bad, but for what I am doing I need to create about 5 or more WebService objects all using the same WSDL (this is a must). It seems pointless to download the WSDL for each new object when I know it is the same.What I am wanting is a way to maybe cache the WSDL locally, or in flash(maybe as an XML object), then apply it to a new WebService object. Or even if someone could tell me how to access the data inside the WebService Object and apply it to a new one.
I have tried a few ideas. I tried using a "clone object" script to clone the WebService object once the original has loaded the WSDL. But it crashed flash because the loop is too big.Is this a case to use a "prototype"? I'm not too sure what it even is. Would it be useful in this situation?
UPDATE: The problem was not to do with namespaces or flex at all. My webservice was returning the wrapped xml. I was blaming the language I had least experience with before questioning the java...I have a basic soap webservice that I am having trouble reading the result from in flex.I'm a solid java programmer and just trying to get my head around adobe flex.In the documentation I should be able to use "WebService" to return the result in e4x format.
Unfortunately, the event object seems to nested and encoded strangely. When I step trough with the debugger I see that responseXml is of type XMLList containing one element (at index 0) of type XML which just contains the following xml:
I am developing a Flex application on top of Mate framework. In this application, I am using a webservice to retrieve data.As this webservice as not a fix location URL (depending on where customers installed it), I define this URL in a config file.When the Flex application starts, it first reads this config file, then I would like to use the value I found to initialize the webservice.But currently, I have no idea how to this.
I have been tinkering around with ServiceStack to expose some web services and have been very impressed. One potential consumer of these services will be a Flex application. Flash Builder (the Flex IDE) has a tool that auto-generates proxy AS3 classes for SOAP web services based on the wsdl - at this point in time only for SOAP 1.1.
If I recreate the HelloWorld tutorial, and try to use the SOAP 1.1 wsdl to autogenerate classes, I get the following errors in Flash Builder. There was an error during service introspection. The part 'parameters' has an invalid value 'HelloResponse' defined for its element. Element declarations must refer to valid values defined in a schema. The part 'parameters' has an invalid value 'Hello' defined for its element. Element declarations must refer to valid values defined in a schema. I am sure this is a problem with Flash Builder's tool. I am wondering if anyone has been successful in auto-generating AS3 classes from a ServiceStack wsdl?
I tried importing the WSDL with the wizard but when I tried to call the web service it results in an error stating
"Cannot marshall type "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema::EnumsChannel"to simple type"
What kind of object do I need to create in Flex Builder 3 to pass into the webservice so that it will recognize it as the appropriate type? The wizard is not correctly creating the appropriate type. Here is the xsd for the enums.
I'd like to try to build my own objects to call the service myself (without the wizard).... created the mx:WebService and mx:Operation but not sure how to handle the enum parameters.
Is it at all possible to connect the Flash Player debug version to the debugger in Flex Builder using source code? I'm running an app which has no right click menu, and I therefore can't right click and select connect to debugger.
I am developing a microsite for a client. The client uses Sharepoint as their main CMS and they want the site to be driven by sharepoint.The problem is that the entire result set is wrapped with Cdata ... not just the content data. Below you can see this (some stuff has been removed to anonymize the data), and this is giving me serious problems trying to parse it.Raw data (service inspector)
I guess I could write a parser that replaced the html entities for <,>," and ' with the actual characters but that is a crappy hack IMO. I have asked the client to try to wrap the fields and attribute data with CData instead of the whole result set but they are unsure if it is a sharepoint specific thing.
I am working on an Adobe Flex front-end with a Java back-end using JPA for persistence. he protocol I am using is remote objects (AMF) implemented with BlazeDS.I started out with a service-facade and entity DAOs, but without any specific DTOs. The same POJOs, the domain objects, were passed in the service-facade as those used as DTOs passed to the Hibernate DAOs.However, the latest few days I have been thinking whether this is a good approach or not. The latest article on the subject I read was this one:Interesting JPA Pattern blogThe situation:Say I have POJO Book with a unidirection ManyToOne relation with the POJO Category (i.e. each book may only be associated with one category, but the same category may be associated with many books). I see some alternatives:Alternative 1:I expose a method/operation addUpdateBook(Book book). In the implementation of this operation I add/update both the book and the referenced category.
When using SOAP web services in Flash Builder, I am able to use the web services tool and test making service calls without any issue.I can pass strings that contain spaces, double and single quotes with great success. when I write code to send a string containing spaces or quotes, the web service doesn't return a success response.If I remove the quotes and/or spaces, success.I've tried wrapping the string in tags, but I don't know what else to do.
i am working on creating a custom application for FMS 3.0 that calls a webservice to validate the user coming in. I have tested the following sample code from the Server-Side ActionScript Language Ref. (See below) The URL has been changed to protect the innocent.
This codes seems to work fine when going to an unsecured site but the innvocation of the service never seems to go out when attempting it over SSL. The Server documentation says that outgoing calls like this should work over SSL. Is this true? If so what do I need to do to get it to work?
I'm looking to consume SOAP services -- read only -- from a third party web service. I know Flex has strong SOAP functionality. I am wondering, however, if there is any benefit to using e.g. Ruby or PHP to consume those 3rd party services and then passing the results to Flex, versus doing it all in Flex. Other than decoupling the client code from the SOAP logic, I can't really think of one.
In Flash user can give permission to localhost and even local html file to access remote webservice.I fail to see the same thing for Silverlight which is a nightmare for testing on local pc.
new to as3 is there already built in libraries that allow for connecting to remote shares that require authentication?searching for as3 and smb is swarmed with results for a game written in flash called SMB, so i am not having any luck finding any info on google.
i need to connect to have a button on my website that connects to facebook (if not already logged in) and posts to the users wall.I've only done this from within an iFrame - do i still need AppId etc etc?
I'm running FMS 3.5 on RedHat, and have some server side actionscript that is attempting to perform an HTTP GET on a remote URL, e.g:
loadVars.send("http://someurl/");
This works on a Windows XP development server, but not on the RedHat deployment server. Are there any configuration options that I need to be aware of in order to allow my application to perform requests such as these (i.e. HTTP requests to remote servers)?
Does anyone know where can i find tutorials or even examples for connecting to a remote web server via XML-RPC. I want to establish connection with the server and call a remote method ...
I am writing an application in Flash Builder 4.5. I am also writing a PHP Web service to access data from our MySQL database. This Web service will be made available to third party clients for them to develop applications to access our database as well, via SOAP.
Is there a big performance difference between connecting to the service in Flash Builder via connecting directly to the PHP file vs. connecting to a Web Service via SOAP?I would kind of like to connect to this service the same way that our clients will, to make sure things stay as uncomplicated as possible for future development, but performance is my main priority.
I've created a GUI in Flash Builder 4.5-1 with localization (copylocal as admin, created the files, implemented in he GUI...) and all works fluid and very well.I now want to generate a PHP service from my DB and that also works ok.When I try to run the application I get the error he doesn't find: Unable to open 'c:Program Files(x86)AdobeAdobe Flash Builder
When I retrieve the compiler options (additional languages) it works without errors.Do I need additional steps to be able to use "Locale" and "Services" combined?I used to work with Flex Builder 3 and didn't have the issues....

Does anyone know if there is a way to make the new Package Explorer window in Flash Builder emulate Flex Builders 'Flex navigator' window?
Bottom line is I don't always need to peer into SWC's, and I don't like having a 'default package' automatically created for me. Not sure why the interface wasn't made simpler, allowing access to more power and complexity only if necessary. I want to focus on the code, not on how to navigate and use the bells and whistles in the coding environment.
I just upgraded to Flash Builder 4 (beta 2) from Flex Builder 3 which I have been using since it came out. Problem: All the projects that were in my workspace from Flex Builder 3 did not carry over into Flash Builder 4 (e.g. in the "Flex Navigator" view if FB3). Flash Builder 4 now uses the .FXP format to manage projects, but Flex Builder 3 did not. Is there an easy way to get all my projects back into Flash Builder 4?
How can i settings crossdomain.xml my flex project.* this is my crossdomain.xml.
<?xml version="1.0"?> <!DOCTYPE cross-domain-policy SYSTEM "/xml/dtds/cross-domain-policy.dtd"> <cross-domain-policy> <site-control permitted-cross-domain-policies="all"/>

I've tried lots of different methods but my project send error message "Security error accessing url Unable to load WSDL. If currently online, please verify the URI and/or format of the WSDL [URL]"
Flex Builder 3 provides support to generate actionscipt from WSDL via the GUI ( Data->Import Web Service (WSDL) ) - but this sort of method requires that you check in the generated source. This is not desirable to us (we understand both sides of the 'should generated source be checked in' and we have decided that they should not) so we would like a method to generate the actionscript classes from an ant task. In this case, the WSDL would live in the file system.
As part of a nightly build i want to automate the generation of action script classes like Flex does but in an automated fashion. So I'm looking for an equivalent tool to flex builder 3's Import Web Service functionality, but accesable to a Hudson nightly build using ant.
I have a flex app that loads a WSDL at runtime and shares that across several different web services I have defined. Unfortunately each call to loadWSDL() makes a network request for it, and while it's not really a problem due to caching it's still annoying and wasteful to have all those requests generated. Is there a simpler way to solve this problem and only make one network request?[code]
