thank you. Here is where I was making my mistake (in case others are
having the same problem):
when declaring the $_explicitType variable, I was mistakenly putting
the path to the variable in my Flex dir rather than the path in my
PHP dir.
var $_explicitType = "com.one.of.my.flex.customVO";
should have been:
var $_explicitType = "com.one.of.my.customVO";
I don't know why, but I guess I thought I should tell PHP where my
Flex VO was...like it cares!
Anyway, thank for setting me straight.
BTW, I have always seen the [RemoteClass("com.one.of.my.customVO")]
write with "alias =".
[RemoteClass(alias="com.one.of.my.customVO")]
Is this a typo or is the alias optional?
thanks, Kevin

Sure thing. If you want to return an array of com.one.of.my.customVO,
then say the php class is:
<?php
class customVO
{
//Declare variables below
var $_explicitType = "com.one.of.my.customVO";
}
?>
PHP doesn't support packages, so to send the full package name to
Flash
you have to set the $_explicitType variable. The value of
$_explicitType
should be the same as that of [RemoteClass], ie:
package com.one.of.my
{
[RemoteClass("com.one.of.my.customVO")]
class customVO
{
//Stuff in here
}
}
Then the rest is done for you. So for example:
function getArrayOfCustomVo()
{
return array(new customVO(), new customVO());
}
That's pretty much all there is to it.
