I am building an application using ColdFusion and Flex and I want to make sure that I am following good practice techniques. I have a root level COM folder which has various packages inside of it. Inside the com.hayes.myproject package contains the much of the Gateways, DAOs, and CF VOs for my application. I know that it is good practice to pass in the name of a datasource when you first initialize a Gateway or DAO. This would normally not be an issue in a 100% CF application. But how do I do that when I am working with Flex? Obviously there is no way to do it from the RemoteObject from my understanding. *** The information in this e-mail is confidential and intended solely for the individual or entity to whom it is addressed.
