Robert, Thanks a million for pointing out DataServiceTransaction ;) This is awesome.
I wonder now whether there is a db change event support in MySql/JDBC connector that allows a java object to call DataServiceTranaction functions as you described below whenever the database of interest is changed regardless of who (.NET, PHP, etc.) changed it. You've been a great help. Thanks, again. - Jae --- In [email protected], "robert_cadena" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi, > > if i understand you correctly you want to tell a flex client that a > change in a db row occurred, yet the change was not initiated by that > client and/or you're not in the middle of an assembler operation?
