Well, there's already a commercial implementation of Remoting for .NET
that competes with MM, and several dozen projects using some kind of
AMF implementation derived from AMFPHP's, so I don't think MM would object.

Hi Paul
As I discussed with somebody on this list, you can check out the
Fluorine project for Flash Remoting (C#).
Now the library itself is written to be a projector extender (using
Flash Remoting for communication), but it can be adapted with an
ASP.NET Http module (I guess) to become a flash remoting gateway for .NET
However I'm not sure if it would be accepted by MM to compete with
their gateway for .NET

*Subject:* [osflash] Remoting for .NET - proposal and request for advice
Well, I've looked around and haven't found one of these, but it would
be helpful for me, so I'm proposing a new OS Flash project: An
open-source Flash Remoting gateway for .NET
Since the kind folks who built AMFPHP have already done so much of the
work, I was thinking of using that implementation as the jumping-off
point, in particular for the deserialization/serialization, but also
for the architecture unless I can find reasons not to.
Any thoughts? I'm sure there are several people on this list with
plenty of AMFPHP experience. I don't know if Patrick Mineault is on
this list, but if you are (or others who have been involved in
designing/building AMFPHP) then I would greatly appreciate your
insights. For my part I have used AMFPHP somewhat (I have php on my
personal site; .NET at work) and have dug into the source code quite a
bit in anticipation of this project.
Here are some questions I have, that I would love to get feedback on:
- What are some of the strengths and weaknesses of the AMFPHP
architecture? If you could design that system from scratch today,
would you use the same architecture or a different one?
- Anyone else attempted to build an AMF gateway? What lessons did you
learn? Should I turn back now while I'm ahead? =)
- Is anyone else interested in having (or helping build or test) an OS
Flash Remoting gateway for .NET?
Obviously there will be some necessary changes due to differences in
PHP and C#/.NET, and I already have some thoughts about some changes
based on specific things that are available in .NET that (I assume)
aren't available in PHP. But having never designed an AMF gateway
before, I'd appreciate thoughts from any of you who have done so, or
at least spent some time thinking about it.
Thanks for your feedback!
