Yes. However, even though gwoo uses this technique, I don't see him using the built-in recordset paging feature (he actually implements some sort of custom paging) and I must confess that this confused me a bit.

Yes too. Ever since I started using CakeAMFPHP I never really thought or needed to use recordsets. And about the paging feature, I guess I could easily implement a custom paging system myself without using the built-in recordset.

yeah, he did.

I still use recordsets occasionally, for long lists of stuff thats only going to
be shown in flash and will need the paging support.

I think at the moment its just a matter of taking each situation on its own
merits..if you can or need to use recordsets then theyre there.

apparently the f stands for filtered. Its a part of the standard AMFPHP
distribution.

The comment says :

The arrayf adapter is a filtered mySQL adapter riggged
to only transmit certain column names. Must be typed manually.

thats about as much as i know about it :)
