I have a CF page that generates a Unique ID (UUID). I have an
HTTPRequest passes information to a CF page and I want it to generate
the number and then return it to ActionScript where it can use it as a
local variable. Any idea on how to do that?
Does the HTTPRequest return a value? Does it have to be in XML?
Would I set the returned value in the
resulthandler? Here is what I have for a HTTPRequest:
private function startTrackIt(trackInfo:Object):void {
var service:HTTPService = new HTTPService();
service.url = "tracker.cfm"; //Dev
service.method = "POST";
service.addEventListener(ResultEvent.RESULT, timingSaved);
service.addEventListener(FaultEvent.FAULT, alertFault);
service.send(trackInfo);
}
What
would I need to do next to set a local variable in my AS? In a
RemoteObject, I usually set the a variable, typed ArrayCollection, in
the ResultHandler.
Sorry, this little idea is all new me and I am trying to figure it out.
OR Can Flash create a unique number like ColdFusion?
