Big Thanks to All of you. I got it working with a wrapper class. I
included my code below so future searches on this problem can get
running quickly.
var myLocal_so:SharedObject;
function writeIt(result:Array):Void
{
myLocal_so = SharedObject.getLocal("mySO");
// custom Wrapper class
var myDP:SharedObjectDP = new SharedObjectDP();
myDP.setDataProvider(result);
myLocal_so.data.dataProvider=myDP;
myLocal_so.flush();
}
<mx:DataGrid id="dg" dataProvider="{mx.utils.ArrayUtil.toArray
(myLocal_so.data.dataProvider.dataProvider)}" ..../>
<mx:RemoteObject source="com.MyService" ..>
<mx:method name="getAllPojos" result="writeIt(event.result)" />
</mx:RemoteObject>
/* Implementation Wrapper class */
class com.SharedObjectDP extends Object {
public function SharedObjectDP(){}
var dataProvider: Array;
function getDataProvider() : Array { return dataProvider; }
function setDataProvider(arg : Array) : Void { dataProvider = arg; }
}
