I have a situation where I have a deliberate mismatch between my AS3
and Java objects.
I have a Java object
package com.java
class X
{
private String name;
public String getName(){return name;}
public void setName(String name){this.name=name;}
}
and an ActionScript object
package com.as3
{
[Managed]
[RemoteClass(alias="com.java.X")]
public class X
{
private var name:String;
private var age:Number;
}
}
this all works great and my X.name gets transported back and forth
reliably, however when data is transmitted from client to server I get
a warning message from the framework on the server which says...
"Ignoring set property age for type com.as3.X as a setter could not be
found."
This means that the age property was transmitted unnecessarily. Not a
problem for a primitive like a Number, but a real problem if age
contained an array of objects.
What I think I need is something like the "transient" keyword in Java
object persistence which causes a property not to be considered for
persistence, or in this case transmission.
Does any such thing exist, or is there another way of doing this?
Thanks
