Hi Pete, The channel endpoint defined in services-config.xml already had a fully-qualified URI. So, following your advice, I dug through the documentation to find out how to create a ChannelSet in ActionScript and assign it to my RemoteObject. This worked (thank you!), but it's very disturbing, for a number of reasons...
1) Why is it necessary to specify an endpoint in ActionScript *only if* the FDS code resides in a separate class file? (Remember, the app worked fine without the AS endpoint when the FDS code was in the main application MXML file.) 2) Why should it ever be necessary to define an endpoint in ActionScript when the endpoint has already been defined in the XML configuration file? This is redundant, it invites errors, and introduces code-maintenance headaches. 3) If this is how Flex is designed to work, and it's not a bug, why isn't this made obvious in the documentation? It should be in large, bold letters somewhere: "IF YOU WANT TO DEFINE YOUR REMOTE OBJECTS IN AN ACTIONSCRIPT CLASS FILE, YOU MUST SPECIFY THE CHANNEL ENDPOINTS." 4) The main attraction of FDS are their simplicity. They are supposed to be easy to learn and use, and save a lot of time and effort. When I have to spend hours tracking down a silly problem like this, my boss gets disgusted, and I don't blame him. Am I just over-reacting, or is something wrong here? -Jim (BTW: Pete, THANK YOU again for your help!!!) --- In [email protected], "Peter Farland" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Ok, what about the channel endpoints? > > ________________________________ > -- Flexcoders Mailing List FAQ: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/files/flexcodersFAQ.txt Search Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com Yahoo!
