Try setting the request timeout to zero. Also, what is the actual fault that is returned? Add the following to your fault handler to find out...

Re: [flexcoders] Re: Webservice Random Faults
I am afraid having to do that will defeat the purpose of having webservices
in place!
To me it alternately looks like having HTTPService with required params to a
CF page that queries the db and returns the data back (in your case its via
AMF using remoteObj).
In-case someone is looking for an answer -
I spent a lot of time trying to dig through the framework api with debug
points everywhere. Its unfortunate, i was in a place where finding the cause
of the problem was a pain as the faults were not consistent and any code
changes cannot be tested without it being reproducible. I read in the
comments of this url - http://www.judahfrangipane.com/blog/?p=87 that
getting rid of fiddler sometimes avoids these errors. In my case these were
not the IO errors (#2032) as i receive the HTTP status codes fine 200 in the
response in fiddler. I just couldn't give a straight solution to get rid of
fiddler without the issue being reproducible.
While i debugged through the framework, i figured out that error was
getting generated from mx.rpc.AsyncRequest.as (Line 62) and the
acknowledgement forwarded by fiddler has DSErrorHint set to true. This is
the catch to isolate why fiddler receives the HTTP status 200 fine (acting
as proxy) just that it doesn't reach through till flash player fine. One of
the QA Engineers reproduced the problem in-house and I have witnessed having
fiddler on (acting as proxy) causes the problem and turning it off gets rid
of it [I was really lucky to reproduce it, it was like one out of 30-40
operations faults]. Hard to even convince any one even now, but hope this
saves someones time.
Use network sniffers instead of http proxies for debugging.

[flexcoders] Re: WebService Payload Truncated (#2006 Out of Bounds Error) on Send in Gumbo
I've been looking at this problem for just about a day straight now, and just can't see why I'm getting an out of bounds error on send. I've tried updated to the latest Gumbo nightly (9377), which no luck. My code to launch the WebService call looks like this: _calibrationData = new ByteArray(); var stream:FileStream = new FileStream(); stream.open(file, FileMode.READ); stream.readBytes(_calibrationData, 0, stream.bytesAvailable); var token:AsyncToken = this._service.mLoadCalibration(file.name, _calibrationData); token.addResponder(this._mLoadCalibrationResponder); Which seems to be a-okay. Or, am I missing something obvious? I'm pretty sure I've hit up against a SDK bug. I've opened a bug report with Adobe, to track this issue at http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/SDK-22751 Anyone else transferring large (1MB) base64 encoded data using the Flex webservice client?

[flexcoders] Re: WebService Payload Truncated (#2006 Out of Bounds Error) on Send in Gumbo
Interesting point. I tried truncating my byte array down to 60KB, I still got the out of bounds fault. However, if i drop the byte array down to 10KB, no out of bounds error. Somewhere between the two (60KB and 10KB) is the breaking point. I've read through the article you referenced (thanks for the link!), but still don't see what quota parameter Flex would be blowing. Are we talking MaxReceivedMessageSize? The other interesting thing is that I'm seeing much greater volume than 60KB being transmitted to the SOAP server when inspecting incoming data server side using Wireshark. If this is a quota violation being triggered, how would it enforce on the packet data? Would some of it be dropped? Maybe everything following the violation?

Ah, MaxReceivedMessageSize is not a Windows limit,per se, but a Windows WCF limit that is programatically controlled by the SOAP server.

RE: [flexcoders] Re: WebService returning results, but event.result is null
Interestingly enough, setting the resultFormat to e4x does indeed properly
populate the event.result. I'm guessing this has got to be some sort of
parsing error in the WebService classes attempts to marshal the results as
objects. Has anyone else run across this issue?

Well, actually it is at the operation/method level. The default is
object, which converts your soap xml into a tree of dynamic objects, and
this has some issues.
Change it to e4x, which will preserve the xml, to see if the behavior
changes.

I don't believe the mx.rpc.soap.WebService class has a resultFormat
property, but, if it does, im using its default. I've only seen that
property on HTTPService, not WebService

RE: [flexcoders] Re: WebService returning results, but event.result is null
Not specifically. But the default object conversion is the source of
*many* problems. It is a quick way to display data, but that is about
all. I don't see how, even theoretically, that a single algorithm could
handle any arbitrary XML input and produce a reliable, predicatable
object tree. And dynamic objects can have poor access performance, and
the object tree does not provide e4x expressions for manipulation. Ease
of use is its only benefit.
I steer folks away from it any chance I get.

Interestingly enough, setting the resultFormat to e4x does indeed
properly populate the event.result. I'm guessing this has got to be
some sort of parsing error in the WebService classes attempts to marshal
the results as objects. Has anyone else run across this issue?

Ok,so, given im making a call like this:
public function getMediaItems(eventId:Number):AsyncToken{
var req:Object = new Object();
req['event-id'] = eventId;
var token:AsyncToken = proxy.find(req);
token.addResponder(responder);
return token;
}
How do I get a handle on the operation? (in this case, it's the find
method of my service, proxy.

Well, actually it is at the operation/method level. The default is
object, which converts your soap xml into a tree of dynamic objects,
and this has some issues.
Change it to e4x, which will preserve the xml, to see if the behavior
changes.

I don't believe the mx.rpc.soap.WebService class has a resultFormat

[flexcoders] Re: WebService using a bindable hostname
I managed to get this working finally. I couldn't manage to change it with any of the options I listed. But what did work was using the FlexBuilder 3 interface and importing the WebService. Then using the code it called. Fairly significant work around, but it did work.
[flexcoders] Re: WebService operation faults propigating up to WebService fault handler.
This is a good idea and exactly what I'm going to try now. This will
cover about 98% of my commands, and will have the advantage of both
faults coming from the operations and the service level to have the
same handler.
I guess at this point, I really want to understand the AsyncToken
stuff in relation to Cairngorm design, so I think I'll post over to
the cairngorm list. It's probably really a best practices that I'm
looking for.
Thanks Tracy for the suggestinos.

Hmmm...interesting.
I got into the Responders/AsyncTokens because that's how all the
Cairngorm samples were setup.
But with what you say, it's very consistent with all the samples using
MXML WebServices...putting a fault on the operation. But with faults
on the operation, what happens when Flex can't even call the operation
because of a SOAPEncoder error?
Originally, all was fine with using Responders, but then I noticed
that errors from the SOAPEncoder were getting swallowed, and when Flex
tried building a SOAP message, but couldn't because of some improper
format, nothing would happen. It would sit there. Adding an error
handler to the actual service solved that.
Now, however, I'm stuck with Responder's handling faults, and the
actual WebService handling faults. I'd like to at least not have the
Web Service fault trigger if the responder handled it.
I'm about 12 Web Services, 140+ calls into this thing. I don't think
it'll be possible for me to get rid of my Responder cairngorm
infrastructure...but I'd like to at least get a handle on how/where
the faults are raised from.
Had I done this again, I'd probably take your approach of having a
single handler, use that as the master that subs things out depending
upon the type of response. This would have the benefit of a single
point in dealing with the Flex services layer...

Everything

But when I try to use more than one parameter to hand over to the
service-operation, the value of the first argument overwrites the
second argument. I do call the Service in this way:
webService.myoperation('D','990');
I did some traffic-sniffing using fiddler and the sent request

Am I doing something wrong or is this a bug in Flex when dealing
with
more than one parameter in the service call? I couldn't find an
example where a webservice uses more than one argument but my
call is
just the way it is described in the manual. Does anybody have a

Btw.: up to now I do use the trial version of Flex Builder 3 -
maybe
this is a limitation of the trial version?

Hi there:
We've run into some webservice issues here when switching from Flex
2.0.1 (not the hotfix version) to Flex 3. We are retrieving data
from
a .NET backend using a SOAP/wsdl format. When we switched to Flex
3.0, the structures returned on the repsonse were sometimes a
little
different.
For example, we had a data structure returned that was like this:
data.result.UserProfileResponse.snapshots.Calendars
Where Calendars was an ArrayCollection.
Now the struture comes back without the Calendars part, and the
data
is in an ArrayCollection under the
data.result.UserProfileResponse.snapshots structure.
The wsdl loks like this:
![CDATA[
s:complexType name=UserProfileResponse
s:sequence
s:element minOccurs=0 maxOccurs=1 name=userProfileDAO
type=tns:UserProfileDAO /
s:element minOccurs=0 maxOccurs=1 name=snapshots
type=tns:ArrayOfCalendars /
/s:sequence
/s:complexType
s:complexType name=ArrayOfCalendars
s:sequence
s:element minOccurs=0 maxOccurs=unbounded name=Calendars
nillable=true type=tns:Calendar /
/s:sequence
/s:complexType
]]
Is this a result of the changes to implement e4x on webservices?
Has anyone else run into this issue?
Thanks in advance,
Mike
It seems this is a knonw bug with Adobe in Flex 3.
If there are nested Arrays, Flex will not handle them properly.
Flex 3.0 also will drop data if the structure of the data is not
ordered exactly as the WSDL dictates. This all wokred fine in Flex
2.0.1. A seriously bad mistake by Adobe to let these bugs slip
through.
So it turns out that switching our Webservice to handle SOAP

Object
{
var xmlDoc:XMLDocument = new XMLDocument(xmlData);
var decoder:SimpleXMLDecoder = new
SimpleXMLDecoder(true);
var obj:Object = decoder.decodeXML(xmlDoc);
var data:Object = new Object;
for(var i:int = 0; i 2; i++)

obj = tempObj;

Hi, thanks for your replies. eipref1.kingmedia.de is a non-public server running in a virtual machine for developing purposes only. The WSDL file is accessible. I did some more investigation and the solution is at the moment the Flex SOAP webservice functionality is not useable. The DataServiceManagement in FB3 creates a lot of Classes and methods. I used them in combination with the remote proxy. Flex was able to load the WSDL but failed to use it ( checked with in console logging ).

These classes need to implement the mx.rpc.xml.IXMLSchemaInstance

An example showing roughly how to do it:
ChangeableParameter.as

I'd do some research to see what most .NET people are doing for authentication and WebServices. That's what I'm trying to do now :) It looks like most are using SOAP headers instead of Basic Authentication. I started a thread with our back-end group in charge of all the .NET stuff. We do not want any sort of browser authentication window to appear so I guess basic auth is out of the question. It would be nice if Adobe could support it out of the box. I see lots of people running into the same problem and there is already an enhancement request on the bug tracker site.
[flexcoders] Re: WebService Basic Authentication over HTTPS?
Will the method of using SOAP headers still allow for basic session management by the .NET WebService? The server-side guys are really pushing the use of Basic Authentication but it sounds like this approach will mean coding specific authentication functions within the WebService, correct?
RE: [flexcoders] Re: WebService Basic Authentication over HTTPS?
I'd guess that if you lock down a WebService's soap address location URL to cause an HTTP Basic Authentication challenge then it won't matter what SOAP headers a particular operation is capable of processing as the POST won't get far enough to be able to see the SOAP data. While it is technically possible to pre-authenticate by sending the right HTTP headers from Flash, it's not a viable solution if the wrong credentials are ever sent as you will then receive a challenge dialog no matter what.

Ah, i gotcha. Totally possible. I do the same thing except backwards
from .NET to Flex.
So you want to pass N number of People.
People is an object that contains fields like first name, last name,
phone, ect...
I would create a class called person with these fields in it. I would
add N number of people to an array Collection. Then in my WS call i
would go ws.sendPeople(myPersonArrayCollection())
On the back end side have the web service accept a generic array of
objects. I like to type them the same after I get them; so in .NET I
would have a duplicate person class. Stepping through the Generic
array is not hard to do in .NET; just a few lines of code. I'm not
sure what language you are using though.
I have this written in a few applications. If you need me to whip up
a full example with a .NET backend just say so. I have taken much

Thank you for the quick response!! :)
I did not know you could implement a WS call the way you do, very
cool, although unless Im understanding it improperly, I dont think it
will work for me. Please correct me if I am misinterpreting how your
way works.
You do ws.getMyFunction(firstName, lastName, city) .. for instance,
and your webservice gets the data in an expected size and format,
right? It goes, param1 is the firstname, param2 is the lastname, and
param3 is the city. No definition involved but it is still finite.
What I need to do is have a flexible structure in my xml to have an
infinite amount tags inside certain blocks.
So sometimes I might pass and xml that looks like this:
person
tag2FirstName/tag2
tag3LastName/tag3
tag4San Diego/tag4
/person
and sometimes I need to send this:
person
tag2FirstName/tag2
tag3LastName/tag3
tag4San Diego/tag4
tag5Chicago/tag5
tag6New York/tag6
/person
If I pass in the parameters as you have, I have no way to denote the
beginning and end of that section that contains 'n' number of
elements.
Does that make sense? I know it's hairy :) I really want to keep the
XML structure. I think if I did it your way, I could pass in a ton of
parameters as key/value pairs and build the xml on the other side...
like.. ws.getMyFunction(firstname, Bill, lastname, Smith, city1,
Chicago) ... but man, then I have to dissect the nice XML object that
Flex gives you to work with.

Example: This works just fine as an operation on a webservice -

mx:myParameter{someStringVariable}/mx:myParameter
/mx:request
/mx:operation

Hey thanks for the Help, that really light me!
So, i write something like this..
[Bindable]
public var webService:WebService;
public function wsHelloWorld():void{
// initialization that only needs to be called
once
if (!webService) {
webService = new WebService();
webService.wsdl = myWsdl.text;
webService.loadWSDL();
webService.addEventListener(LoadEvent.LOAD, readyHelloWorld);
webService.addEventListener(ResultEvent.RESULT, resultListener);
}
}
public function readyHelloWorld():void{
// call web service function Is Ready
webService.HelloWorld(myInput.text);
}
public function resultListener(event:ResultEvent):void {
// handle result of webservice
trace(event.result);
}
This is giving me: Argument count mismatch on main/readyHelloWorld().
Expected 0, got 1.

Remove the first line of wsHelloWorld (initHelloWorld()) and just
make sure
to call initHelloWorld well before you call wsHelloWorld. Really
you should
add an eventListener to webService for LoadEvent.LOAD and not call
helloworld until that LOAD has been received once. Unfortunately, I
have to
go do something right now so I can't write that up. Sorry for the

It just doesn't seem 'right' to do that, you know? :) With all of
the great XML constructs in Flex, to have to do a sloppy translation
of gt; into on the webservice side.. I cant sleep at night :) It
seems like such a hack hehehe.

Thanks for the reply :) If you pass it like that, it gets encoded :(
The XML tags get turned into gt and lt because the SOAP wrapper
thinks you were sending string data inside of 1 XML tag.. which you
are really.
That is my problem exactly.

Nate,
Thank you for the quick response!! :)
I did not know you could implement a WS call the way you do, very
cool, although unless Im understanding it improperly, I dont think it
will work for me. Please correct me if I am misinterpreting how your
way works.
You do ws.getMyFunction(firstName, lastName, city) .. for instance,
and your webservice gets the data in an expected size and format,
right? It goes, param1 is the firstname, param2 is the lastname, and
param3 is the city. No definition involved but it is still finite.
What I need to do is have a flexible structure in my xml to have an
infinite amount tags inside certain blocks.
So sometimes I might pass and xml that looks like this:
person
tag2FirstName/tag2
tag3LastName/tag3
tag4San Diego/tag4
/person
and sometimes I need to send this:
person
tag2FirstName/tag2
tag3LastName/tag3
tag4San Diego/tag4
tag5Chicago/tag5
tag6New York/tag6
/person
If I pass in the parameters as you have, I have no way to denote the
beginning and end of that section that contains 'n' number of
elements.
Does that make sense? I know it's hairy :) I really want to keep the
XML structure. I think if I did it your way, I could pass in a ton of
parameters as key/value pairs and build the xml on the other side...
like.. ws.getMyFunction(firstname, Bill, lastname, Smith, city1,
Chicago) ... but man, then I have to dissect the nice XML object that
Flex gives you to work with.
Thanks again for your time in hashing this out with me!!

[flexcoders] Re: WebService sending dynamic XML - problem
Ah, i gotcha. Totally possible. I do the same thing except backwards
from .NET to Flex.
So you want to pass N number of People.
People is an object that contains fields like first name, last name,
phone, ect...
I would create a class called person with these fields in it. I would
add N number of people to an array Collection. Then in my WS call i
would go ws.sendPeople(myPersonArrayCollection())
On the back end side have the web service accept a generic array of
objects. I like to type them the same after I get them; so in .NET I
would have a duplicate person class. Stepping through the Generic
array is not hard to do in .NET; just a few lines of code. I'm not
sure what language you are using though.
I have this written in a few applications. If you need me to whip up
a full example with a .NET backend just say so. I have taken much
more than I have given on this forum. It's time to pay it forward :).
I will be AFK until Tuesday so if you want an example try to respond
before 5pm or so tonight.

the need to do this, but I just cant find a way around it.
Example:
var myXMLObject:XML = tag1tag2/tag1/tag2
mx:operation name=SaveAction
mx:request
mx:myParameter{myXMLObject}/mx:myParameter
/mx:request
/mx:operation
The resulting packet across the wire will be one
parameter(myparameter), with my XML as a string and all of the and
encoded to gt...etc. I have tried every hack I can think of and I
cant get this to work. Has anyone else had experience using a
dynamically sized XML as the model for a webservice?
Any help is MUCH appreciated :)

p.s. - I have come up with ways around this.. such as sending as an
HTTPService with contentType=application/xml.. or decoding the
gt,
lt on the webservice side. Both

Ah, rats.
And you don't want to manually encode/decode the strings?

Tracy,
Thanks for the reply :) If you pass it like that, it gets encoded :(
The XML tags get turned into gt and lt because the SOAP wrapper
thinks you were sending string data inside of 1 XML tag.. which you
are really.
That is my problem exactly.

Nate,
Thank you for the quick response!! :)
I did not know you could implement a WS call the way you do, very
cool, although unless Im understanding it improperly, I dont think it
will work for me. Please correct me if I am misinterpreting how your
way works.
You do ws.getMyFunction(firstName, lastName, city) .. for instance,
and your webservice gets the data in an expected size and format,
right? It goes, param1 is the firstname, param2 is the lastname, and
param3 is the city. No definition involved but it is still finite.
What I need to do is have a flexible structure in my xml to have an
infinite amount tags inside certain blocks.
So sometimes I might pass and xml that looks like this:
person
tag2FirstName/tag2
tag3LastName/tag3
tag4San Diego/tag4
/person
and sometimes I need to send this:
person
tag2FirstName/tag2
tag3LastName/tag3
tag4San Diego/tag4
tag5Chicago/tag5
tag6New York/tag6
/person
If I pass in the parameters as you have, I have no way to denote the
beginning and end of that section that contains 'n' number of
elements.
Does that make sense? I know it's hairy :) I really want to keep the
XML structure. I think if I did it your way, I could pass in a ton of
parameters as key/value pairs and build the xml on the other side...
like.. ws.getMyFunction(firstname, Bill, lastname, Smith, city1,
Chicago) ... but man, then I have to dissect the nice XML object that
Flex gives you to work with.
Thanks again for your time in hashing this out with me!!
Best,

You don't have to define your parameters in MXML. If you don't, Flex
will let you send as many or as little parameters as you want. I
only
get an error if the amount of parameters that I send don't match the
type and number on the server side.
Hope this helps,

Hi friends - I have been wrestling with a problem that I was
hoping
you could help me out with :)
I understand the premise of defining a WebService in Flex, with
parameters and data, and sending the data over the wire to my
WSDL.
However, I have a unique situation where I want to assemble a
dynamic
XML file and send it over a WebService. Unless you define a 1 to 1
mapping of parameters in Flex to a WSDL, I cant find any way to
make
this work.
Example: This works just fine as an operation on a webservice -
mx:operation name=SaveAction
mx:request
mx:myParameter{someStringVariable}/mx:myParameter
/mx:request
/mx:operation
This is a 1 to 1 mapping of a parameter in Flex to my WSDL, which
expects 1 value called myParameter.
However, if I pass in an XML object, SOAP will change all of my
and
to lt; and gt; to avoid breaking the SOAP envelope. I
understand
the need to do this, but I just cant find a way around it.
Example:
var myXMLObject:XML = tag1tag2/tag1/tag2
mx:operation name=SaveAction
mx:request
mx:myParameter{myXMLObject

RE: [flexcoders] Re: WebService Fault Handling - Flash Player 9 Update
Sockets go through the OS network layer. I'm sorry you haven't seen the Player sending cookies, in most of my scenarios using a Player that runs in an HTML page I've seen the headers being sent across. I'm also sorry that there isn't a published workaround for you right now, but I don't think we consider it the best use of our time to rewrite an HTTP stack in AS3 for this issue when we've been working with vendors to find solutions. I know you think that as a big company we have infinite resources but we simply don't, and this is one of the issues where we've had to make some tough decisions.

The Fault object in the FaultEvent reports.. faultCode:EncodingError faultString:'Unknown Property: 'creationDate'.' faultDetail:'null' The object that is sent as an argument to the operation has the following schema.. xsd:complexType name=TheObject xsd:sequence xsd:element minOccurs=0 name=creationDate type=xsd:dateTime/ xsd:element minOccurs=0 name=customerId type=xsd:long/ xsd:element minOccurs=0 name=height type=xsd:int/ xsd:element minOccurs=0 name=id type=xsd:long/ xsd:element minOccurs=0 name=images nillable=true type=ns1:ArrayOfScrollerImage/ xsd:element minOccurs=0 name=modificationDate type=xsd:dateTime/ xsd:element minOccurs=0 name=name nillable=true type=xsd:string/ xsd:element minOccurs=0 name=version type=xsd:long/ xsd:element minOccurs=0 name=width type=xsd:int/ /xsd:sequence /xsd:complexType The actual object looks like (including the creationDate).. object = TheObject (@ee5f8b1) creationDate = Date (@f0695b1) date = 17 [0x11] dateUTC = 17 [0x11] day = 5 [0x5] dayUTC = 5 [0x5] fullYear = 2006 [0x7d6] fullYearUTC = 2006 [0x7d6] hours = 10 [0xa] hoursUTC = 17 [0x11] milliseconds = 234 [0xea] millisecondsUTC = 234 [0xea] minutes = 1 [0x1] minutesUTC = 1 [0x1] month = 10 [0xa] monthUTC = 10 [0xa] seconds = 23 [0x17] secondsUTC = 23 [0x17] time = 1163782883234 [0x10ef6dd87a2] timezoneOffset = 420 [0x1a4] customerId = 117 [0x75] height = 160 [0xa0] id = -1 [0x] images = mx.collections.ArrayCollection (@32dd551) imagesLength = 0 [0x0] imagesXmlString = images/images modificationDate = Date (@f069881) name = TheObjectName template = TheObjectTemplate (@eee6b31) templateId = 1 [0x1] version = -1 [0x] width = 266 [0x10a] Anyone have any ideas what's causing the fault? thanks, Paul
[flexcoders] Re: WebService bug?
Hi Ben, We are using the 2.0.1 version. I have just discovered that this problem only occurs when using collections of objects that are typed to a superclass of the objects. For instance, I have a class MediaItem. My 2 concrete subclasses are CD and DVD. A CD has a Tracks property and a DVD has a Actors property. When I send over a MediaItem array, it is correctly converted to an ArrayCollection but the Tracks and the Actors collections in the subclasses of MediaItem are ObjectProxy instances. To solve this, let's move the Tracks property of the CD class to the MediaItem superclass. The Tracks property is then also converted to an ArrayCollection. Seems like a bug in the deserialisation of the data, what do you and others think? Should I file a bug and where? regards, Christophe --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, ben.clinkinbeard [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Are you using 2.0.1?

[flexcoders] Re: Webservice WSDL ActionScript authentication and operations - n00bie
Ben,
What is the best way to go about handling the result from the
operations.send() call. I'm sure you must have to add an event
listener on the operations call.
I do not fully understand the Iresponder from your initial posting.
You can optionally capture the token created by the call and assign a
responder as well:
var call:ASyncToken = op.send();
call.addResponder(IResponder);
The IResponder interface defines a result and fault method that are
called when the operation returns.
I tried to add that into my code and received the error:
1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: ASyncToken.
I believe I have all the proper classes imported:
import mx.rpc.soap.WebService;
import mx.rpc.soap.WSDL;
import mx.rpc.soap.*;
import mx.rpc.IResponder;
import mx.rpc.*;
import mx.rpc.events.ResultEvent;
import mx.rpc.AsyncToken;
Now even if I get the error eliminated, how do you add a resultHandler
function to capture the xml returned from the operations call?
Maybe you can briefly explain how the AsyncToken and Iresponder work?
Here is my current snippet of code:
private function init():void{
var ws:WebService = new WebService;
ws.wsdl =
http://www.myservice.com/services/InventoryService?wsdl;;
ws.useProxy = false;
ws.loadWSDL(http://www.myservice.com/services/InventoryService?wsdl;);
var op:Operation = ws.getOperation(getPhones) as
Operation;
op.arguments.projectId = 1;
op.resultFormat= e4x;
//var call:ASyncToken = op.send(); //1046 error
//call.addResponder(IResponder);
op.send();
}
Thanks for all your help to far. It has definitely helped!!

Flex handles the serialization of your objects for you, so you just
put the arguments your method requires onto the arguments property. So
if your remote method's signature is: doCoolStuff(name:String,
age:Number, hobbies:Array), you would use the following code in Flex:
op.arguments.name = Bob Cratchett;
op.arguments.age = 34;
op.arguments.hobbies = new Array(working, playing with Tim, etc);
HTH, let me know if you have additional questions.

[flexcoders] Re: Webservice WSDL ActionScript authentication and operations - n00bie
Hey Phil,
Sure, let's go over ASyncToken and IResponder.
ASyncToken
(http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flex/2/langref/mx/rpc/AsyncToken.html)
From the docs: This class provides a place to set additional or
token-level data for asynchronous rpc operations. It also allows an
IResponder to be attached for an individual call. The AsyncToken can
be referenced in ResultEvent and FaultEvent from the token property.
So we capture the token/id of the remote call we're making by
assigning it to an ASyncToken instance, and then we can attach classes
that implement the IResponder interface as responders.
var call:ASyncToken = op.send();
call.addResponder(myResponderClass);
myResponderClass must be an instance of a class that implements the
IResponder interface
(http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flex/2/langref/mx/rpc/IResponder.html).
IResponder dictates that your class contains a result() method and a
fault() method. These methods (at least the appropriate one depending
on the success of your request) will be automatically called by the
ASyncToken when the remote call returns. The parameter for both
methods is of type object, but what is returned from a web service
call is either ResultEvent or FaultEvent, so you'll generally cast it
inside the method.
This approach allows you to have more than one object that will be
called when your service returns if you so choose.

Ben

Hello, The Flash 8 and Flex 1.5 webservice connector wizardsare really nicetime-savers for developers.They validate the connection, automatically list the available operations and provide control binding options. All of these coding steps are completed in one trip to the wizard. It would be nice if a future release of Flexhad a ported version of this type ofwizard. But, that's not a simple task; especially considering that many use an additional framework level, like Cairngorm, on top of Flex.

[flexcoders] Re: WebService vs RemoteObject
Yup, the improvements in AMF protocol from older versions of CF is awesome - 7.02 supports the AMF3 (ActionScript 3.0/Flex 2.0) protocol and is much much quicker. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Darren Houle [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: This was not designed as a controlled experiment, just something I coded, noticed, and thought I'd pass on... I'm building a small Cairngorm application and one of it's functions is to display two sets of network user accounts in two datagrids. Initially I used a WebService to call a Coldfusion CFC that returns simple Query objects pulled from an Oracle database. Datagrid 1 retrieves and displays about 400 accounts, and datagrid 2 about 3000 accounts. Using a WebService the retreival time appeared to be about 2-3 seconds (roughly based on the amount of time the showCursor clock was spinning) before the result handler fired, and the render time to fit the data into the grids was approximately another 6-7 seconds. I just converted all the RPC calls to RemoteObject calls and now the total retrieval AND render time is well under 2 seconds total. Retrieval time is faster (the spinning cursor is almost non existent) and the render time is insanely fast. I'm guessing that AMF and not needing to parse thru the SOAP return payloadmade the difference. Pull back a simple boolean with either type of RPC call, not so much, but pull back 3500 records and you *definitely* see a difference with RemoteObject.

RE: [flexcoders] Re: webservice lastResult to a ComboBox
Hi Kristian, Presuming your webservice method returns a list of Strings, the result from the webservice operation (ResultEvent.result) is a dynamic object containing a Flex Array object. Probably if you pull this Array object out you can assign it to the dataprovider property of a combobox. The Flex debugger is an excellent tool here to investigate what Flex actually makes out of your webservice result.

Correct, the structure (column names) are dynamic based on the

[flexcoders] Re: Webservice Destination with Basic Authentication
Hi someguy, Based on the traffic that you sent it appears that your WS app server is not blocking access at this point - the error is occuring in your Axis web service rather than at the web container level. And this error is complaining that there is no auth header. Here's my series of educated guesses. - assuming that the contraints are set up properly you may have successfully authenticated at some point as far as the web container is concerned. Subsequently it sees your jsessionid and says, Hey, this guy is already logged in so no need to ask for credentials again. - your web service is assuming that there will always be an auth header. Not true - it will only be sent in response to a challenge from the server. If the server recognizes the authenticated session then there will be no further challenge and therefore no auth header. If you need to do user verification from the service you will need to do manual checking of user info then you'll need to use request.getUserPrincipal(). Tom Ruggles FDS QA --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Seth Hodgson [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, Have you verified that the server hosting your web service has basic auth configured correctly? Your code looks correct so perhaps when the FDS proxy makes the call against the remote server it isn't being challenged for basic auth credentials?

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Webservice Destination with Basic Authentication
Hi, Have you verified that the server hosting your web service has basic auth configured correctly? Your code looks correct so perhaps when the FDS proxy makes the call against the remote server it isn't being challenged for basic auth credentials? Try requesting your WSDL in a browser and verify that the browser's challenge box pops up.
