[flexcoders] flex.portal.GenericFlexPortlet - app_uri on Web Logic

[Anthony DeBonis]

Has anyone got this to work and if so what did you put into app_uri?

The GenericFlexPortlet class is not well documented but it sort of works when 
you need to deploy a Flex app inside a portal.  I can get the application to 
come up inside the portal running on WebLogic Portal ONLY if I put the swf(s), 
protlet and portal all in the same directory.  If I try to organize the portlet 
into directories it can not resolve the location of the swf.

Plus when trying to use your Flex based portlet at a "Remote Portlet", as 
stated in the Adobe docs, the app_uri does not seam to do anything.

Here is my portlet.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<portlet-app version="1.0">
