Hey Brett & Pradeep, Flex 1.5 uses the flashgateway.Gateway.getHttpRequest(), flashgateway.Gateway.getHttpResponse(), and flashgateway.Gateway.getServletConfig() methods. To use these methods, you must have the WEB-INF/lib/flashgateway.jar file in your classpath.
Taken from http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flex/1_5/migration.html I think there is more documentation on this somewhere, but I couldn't find it. Hope that helps. -James On Thu, 2005-05-05 at 23:52 -0600, Brett Palmer wrote: > I think Pradeep's question is the same as mine.
