Yes, the nomenclature is disconcerting. I reviewed your link however am unfamiliar with java/jsp and thus couldn't necessarily follow.
Nonetheless it seemed to say that mapping flex properties to the database properties (returned via jsp/cfusion) offers various advantages -- mostly related to strict typing. Fair enough, but insofar as by using Stored Procedures I (think I) am able to push a great deal of the "BizLogic/ControllerLayer" right to the database (ie NOT the cfusion or even Flex/ViewLayer), what the hell do I care??? I'm so newbie that I hesitate to presume/assert anything but A.) this VO stuff is really boggling/pissing me off and B.) isn't it an imposition to make the view/Flex process/organize the returned data? Why not just throw results into sharedObjects (aka Flash cookies) on the hard drive? Maybe I'm missing something . . .
