I see. It should be easy to to it in flash. If you can't you could just add
and extra method in you wsdl to get the data in the zip files. Like you call
getIncident(), the user selects the zip file and you call
getFile("blah.zip") and return the data in the shape files to flash.Or you call unzipFiles(blah.zip) have the wsdl unzip the file and use something like file.copy in the wsdl to create an unzipped version in a new directory. Then return true when it is done so flash can get the shape files. To save resources you could add a method in your flex code that will check if the file already exist in an unzipped state before you call unzipFiles(). If it returns false you unzip it. That way you would slowly unzip all the files so you would have to unzip them more than once. Just a suggestion. Out of curiosity, is there a reason they are in zip files. Wouldn't it be easier to just have them in directories on the server instead of uncompressing them everytime you need them. Maybe I'm missing something but if you are going to be using them why archive them. Unless you are pulling from the archive.
