Hi, [Managed] is only useful if you use the Data Management feature of the Flex Data Services (FDS). If you just use RemoteObject to connect to your Java side, then [RemoteClass] should be enough (maybe you may want to add [Bindable] to the class body or some of the public properties).
[Managed] does some behind-the-scenes-magic, most importantly it takes your AS class makes it implement the mx.data.Imanaged interface. This ensures that all changes to the object are propagated to the Flex 2 framework. It also enforces that all instances of the class have a unique UID identifier. Rule of thumb: 1) if you use the Data Management feature (with or without Cairngorm), your VO classes should be decorated with [Managed] and [RemoteClass] metadata. You can leave out [Bindable] as this is implicit for [Managed] 2) if you use RemoteObject (with or without Cairngorm) your VO classes should be decorated with the [RemoteClass] metadata and may be [Bindable] as well Dirk. > -----Original Message----- > From: [email protected] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of laidezmon > Sent: Monday, September 25, 2006 2:38 PM > To: [email protected] > Subject: [flexcoders] Re: Managed Attribute for Actionscript > class objects > > Ok one last effort to get this on the top.
