RE: [flexcoders] newbie question - HTTP servive

[Tracy Spratt]

lastResult is only for binding expressions.  You still use event.result in a handler function.   What is the resultFormat of the HTTPService?  If it is object, toString() might not give you anything useful.   For that matter, when you say “doesn’t work”, exactly what do you mean?   Tracy       From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:flexcoders@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Cathy Reilly Sent: Friday, August 18, 2006 10:38 AM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: RE: [flexcoders] newbie question - HTTP servive   In Flex 2, you need to use 'event.lastResult'   - Cathy   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]ups.com [mailto:flexcoders@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Robin Burrer Sent: Thursday, August 17, 2006 9:59 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]ups.com Subject: [flexcoders] newbie question - HTTP servive Hi there, I started playing around with the HTTP service. However I can’t figure out how to access the actual “result” (in my case an xml string) If I set up a listener it just returns me an object in the “onResult” event. Why can’t I access my xml string through “event.result”? How do I access it?                         public function onResult(event:ResultEvent):void                         {                                     // why doesn’t this work?                                     trace (event.result.toString());                                     // this works but it’s very ugly                                     //trace(event.message.body.toString());                         }                         Thanks Robin // the code of my sample application <?xml version="1.0"?> <!-- Simple example to demonstrate the HTTPService tag. --> <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"     creationComplete="go();">     <mx:Script>                         <![CDATA[                         import  mx.rpc.events.ResultEvent;                                                                         public function go():void                         {                                                                         feedRequest.addEventListener(ResultEvent.RESULT,onResult);                                                     feedRequest.send();                         }                                                                                                 public function onResult(event:ResultEvent):void                         {                                     trace (event.result.toString());                                     //trace(event.message.body.toString());                         }                                                                                                 ]]>             </mx:Script>                     <mx:HTTPService         id="feedRequest"         url="">weblogs.macromedia.com/mchotin/index.xml"         useProxy="false" />       </mx:Application> __._,_.___ -- Flexcoders Mailing List FAQ: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/files/flexcodersFAQ.txt Search Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com SPONSORED LINKS Software development tool Software development Software development services Home design software Software development company YAHOO!
