Check out "Localizing Flex Applications" in the documentation, it should tell you all you need to know. Although, the resource files do get compiled into the application (as I understand it, anyone who knows otherwise please do correct me), so maybe it's not quite what you need in this instance. I'm not entirely sure that a database connection string is best placed in the client either, for that matter!
-----Original Message----- From: [email protected] on behalf of Hasan Maqbool Sent: Fri 04/07/2008 07:28 To: [email protected]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [flexcoders] I am looking for flex property file? Hey techies, Actually, I need to set some global urls which are subject to change. So, I can't hard code them in the application. I want to get these urls from some property file just like the standard procedure in other frameworks like .net. But I can't find any property file for flex yet. Let me tell you the exact problem, I have some database connection string, and obviously I can't put it in the code as it is subject to change. So, how can I manage my database connection string. I am using flex as front end and my backend is ruby on rails. My DAL (Data access layer is tatally xml based). Can anybody tell me how to incarporate this connection string in a global project property file and then retrieve that string from action script?
