Here is my current setup for some background. My Host machine is
Windows 2000 Professional that is running Eclipse IDE with the FB3
Beta 2 installed as a plugin. This Host machine does all of my
development coding. I have VMWare Workstation 6 installed which
handles 1 OpenSuse 10.2 Server for the MySQL Database and SVN
Repositories; 1 Windows 2000 Professional "Server" that has CF7 in
JRun Mode installed with an Apache 2.2 Frontend. All Directories
between the Host and the "Server" are shareable so I can drag and drop
files between to test code before being placed on my "Testing" Server.
Now in my MXML file I have
<mx:Application applicationComplete="initApp();" ........>
import mx.utils.URLUtil;
[Bindable] private var ServerName:String;
private function initApp():void {
if
(URLUtil.getServerName(Application.application.loaderInfo.url).length
== 0) {
ServerName = "triton.k12homeworkhotline.ws";
SiteID = 2;
} else if
(URLUtil.getServerName(Application.application.loaderInfo.iurl) == "D") {
ServerName = "triton.k12homeworkhotline.ws";
SiteID = 2;
} else {
ServerName = Application.application.parameters.ServerName;
SiteID = Application.application.parameters.SiteID;
}
<mx:RemoteObject id="K12WebService" destination="Coldfusion"
source="properties.cfc.K12FlexWebService" showBusyCursor="true"
fault="K12WebService_Fault(event)"
endpoint="http://{ServerName}/flex2gateway/";>
The first else if within the initApp() function checks for "D" as that
is the Drive where I store all of my code files on within the Host
computer, This allows me to test my Flex applications from within the
Flex Builder as I am learning flex which saves me many hours by not
coping the files to and from the VMWare CF7 Server. Then I used the
generated html file which gets generated when a file is compiled, made
some modifications to it so that it will pull up the swf file within
my own web directory structure.
I know their might be other ways to handle this, however I find a
solution that works every time as I tend to be the one to find errors
within the published books since a majority of the time the code
printed does not work. I would be a good Technical Editor.
If I can figure out how to view source within an Flex Application, I
can enable that and then you can see the entire source for this
application at http://triton.k12homeworkhotline.ws/
> @Mike, Thanks for the suggestion. I gave it a quick try but to avail.
>
> @Graham, Your solution seems to be the direction I'm headed. Could you
elaborate on some of the things you do in your MXML to detect the
connection between the different servers?
>
> Thanks again for sharing the knowledge!
