Hi Jonas, I just want to clarify a few things to help avoid possible confusion.
If you're doing Flex remoting (ie invoke .NET objects from Flex using RemoteObject), you do not need to do anything special at all - no need for special method attributes, no need to register methods in xml files - just drop your assembly into /bin folder and register a destination in remoting-config.xml and you are done. However if you're doing data management using mx.data.DataService on the client side, then you need to register your data assembler methods in data-management-config.xml. Normally you would have one or more methods to do 'fills' and just one method to do 'syncs'. This will be optional in Beta6 as we will be publishing an interface that your data assembler class can implement. Hope this helps. cheers, Mark --- In [email protected], "Jonas Windey" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi Tim, > > > > Well, my first impression is that it's pretty complex, at least a lot more > complex than just creating ASP.NET Web services and calling them from flex. > > Apparently you need to place all your remote methods in xml config files. > Etc.
