Re: [flexcoders] Re: Flex + .NET Web Services irritations

[John C. Bland II]

I'm using WS because it is what was created for the project. The next revision will be using remoting.Serializing the returned data just seems like an extra step that is unnecessary. If I can return a List of User objects and Flex receives it and I can access it as an ArrayCollection, etc then why would I add 2 more steps (serializing and deserializing)? 
I'm not saying there isn't a place for it. I just don't see it.On 9/12/06, Sam Shrefler <[EMAIL PROTECTED]

I'm a little confused by your reply.  Could you educate me why you are using WS's if you feel you could use remoting?  Also, JSON plugs right into Web Services.  It simply serializes and deserializes the data to allow for easy transfers of data types.

Nah, I'm not interested in JSON. If we weren't using WSs we'd be using Remoting. Thanks though.

You might want to also check out JSON + .NET + Flex.  I've written a tiny little little tutorial to help get people started at:

Which code are you referring to seeing? I can't pass the WS code or url. As for the Flex code, it is based 100% off of the livedocs example but with our url's, etc. We don't use .NET datasets. We are returning "VO's" (classes) or List<classname>. This is .NET 
2.0 so generics are used semi-heavily.Thanks.

Hi John,
Without seeing the code, the first error seems E4X related.  I'm not sure if this will help you with the second error, but natively Flex doesn't accept .Net datasets without receiving this error.  If that's the case, you can solve this by casting the dataset to a class that is returned by the webservice.  Here's an 
ASP.Net webservice code sample:
