I've been messing with the DashboardIteration1 Cairngorm example from Alex
Uhlmann's blog and I have a question about the delegate/webservice piece.
The example's source code was missing any real web service code (and the
delegate was missing the code that calls a web service) so I've added all
that in myself. I wanted the example to actually call a remote service that
generated a rand() instead of generating the rand() in the delegate.
That works fine, however, while testing I hard-coded the symbol name into
the <mx:request> but... when I changed:
<mx:operation name="getQuoteForSymbol" resultFormat="object">
<mx:request>
<symbol>ADBE</symbol>
</mx:request>
</mx:operation>
to
<mx:operation name="getQuoteForSymbol" resultFormat="object">
<mx:request>
<symbol>{symbol}</symbol>
</mx:request>
</mx:operation>
it didn't work (but... I didn't really expect it to)
The delegate is calling the service like this:
var token : AsyncToken = service.getQuoteForSymbol(symbol);
but how do I reference that "symbol" var in the <mx:request>?
There are tons of examples in the documentation that show how to use binding
in the request, but only one example of passing a var "explicitly"... but
the code in that example is different enough from Cairngorm that I can't
seem to figure out how to make it work.
Any examples out there I missed? Or maybe a flexcoders thread that
mentioned this? I've looked but can't find anything.
Thanks!!
