Here is a link to another article describing how to connect Flex 2 to an AMF0 back-end implementation. I found it particularly helpful. You can ignore the back-end AMFPHP part of the article, and just use your OpenAMF backend, which I have used succesfully as well.
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flex/articles/flex2_amfphp_03.html Also, I highly recommend getting yourself a robust Flash remoting debugging tool. This will allow you to easily see what Remoting calls (and all other HTTP traffic) that are going over the wires. http://www.xk72.com/charles/ Cheers, -Daniel p.s. to clarify, FDS does provide Flash Remoting capabilities as well. I prefer it to OpenAMF as its better documented and more cleanly implemented. The issue with it is that it is not free if you are creating a multi-CPU application. hank williams wrote: > > I found the link to renaun's website with the remoteObjectAMF0 tool: > > http://renaun.com/blog/?p=31 <http://renaun.com/blog/?p=31> > > Hope this helps, > > Regards > Hank > > On 10/6/06, Varun Shetty <[EMAIL PROTECTED] > <mailto:varun.shetty%40mphasis.com>> wrote: > > Thank you Hank, > > > > The link provided by greg was too confusing and didn't see it > solving my concern. > > > > I will try FDS and AMF to generate the chart.
