Hello, I don;t think any such tool exist. You have to write an flex application yourself that will request server for the xml and then render the UI on the basis of that XML.
I have done the same for my application. It calls a webserivce when returns the xml that contains the layout of the client. A prototype of that can be view at the following link. http://80.227.133.21/FlexTestExternal/ApplicationLayoutManager.html If you don't like the idea of generating the client UI at runtime, what you can do is write an application in any language you are familiar with and genrate an MXML application file based on the xml. You can then include that file in your Flex project. Regards, Jehanzeb --- "Bernardo O.
