RE: [flexcoders] Re: WebORB for .net beta5: feedback

[Jonas Windey]

Hi Tim,   Well, my first impression is that it’s pretty complex, at least a lot more complex than just creating ASP.NET Web services and calling them from flex. Apparently you need to place all your remote methods in xml config files. Etc. The tutorials from http://www.themidnightcoders.com/articles/datamanagement-part3.htm help a lot, but it’s still a huge change, also in the way of thinking. (eg updating data with the sync methods, changeobjects etc). Also you use a lot more databinding, whereas with web services you just fill your datagrid or treeview with the data you receive, and in the case of an update, you will probably use a web service too to update the current row. Here you just omit your changes to your dataService, and he handles all the rest.   I think the Flex + .NET + WebORB community is pretty small at the moment though, so it would be nice of some gurus from this list play a bit with it like I’m doing right now.   Jonas   From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tim Hoff Sent: donderdag 13 juli 2006 11:32 To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: [flexcoders] Re: WebORB for .net beta5: feedback   Hey Jonas, Please let us know what your impressions of WebORB are after you have had a chance to work with it a little. I'll be switching from .NET WebServices to RemoteObject soon, so I would love to hear about your experience.
