[flexcoders] WebOrb for Rails

[Allen Riddle]

I’ve been looking at The Midnight Coder’s WebOrb for Rails and I’m very impressed. Has Adobe given any thought to hiring these developers so they could get these implementations ported into Adobe’s Flex Data Services? I know Adobe’s working on a .NET implementation, but getting a Ruby implementation would be fantastic.   From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:flexcoders@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Paul Spitzer Sent: Wednesday, October 04, 2006 1:27 PM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [flexcoders] SOAP Web Services and registerClassAlias   Thanks Seth. I should have read the docs. :)... "Preserves the class (type) of an object when the object is encoded in Action Message Format (AMF)." I didn't know it was AMF specific. It /would/ be great to see some more support for this kind of thing. In the past we've done things like... response.__proto__ = User.prototype; Function(User).call(response); var user: User = User(response); Where response is the parsed anonymous object from the web service and User is the type. Now, I'm having to manually iterate the anonymous object and populate an instance of the type. best, Paul Seth Hodgson wrote: > Hi Paul, > > registerClassAlias(...) is used by the Flash Player to drive AMF serialization/deserialization.
