I hope nobody minds the non-OSFlash question here, though it does have to do with the Flash platform. Flashcoders is down still (over a week now - Figleaf said they are working on it, but nothing working yet), and the other Flash forums I know of suck. I tried asking this question on Flexcoders last night, but no response yet. Does anyone know of a GOOD e-mail list serv to ask advanced Flash/Actionscript questions? My experience with Yahoo groups and Adobe forums is that they are usually (not always) filled with newbies who wouldn't have a clue what I'm asking. Plus Adobe's forums are down anyway.
If anyone here knows the answer to this.... I have an enterprise application I built with Flash 8 and Actionscript 2.0 last spring. Has worked great since then. The application connects to Webservices in a .NET 1.1 server environment. As I understand it, our .NET 1.1 environment pushes out Webservice messages in either SOAP 1.1 or SOAP 1.0. Today, they were testing my Flash application in a .NET 2.0 environment and the Webservices stopped working/being connectable from my Flash app. I am assuming so because the Flash 8 Webservice classes were written for either SOAP 1.1 or SOAP 1.0 specifications (correct?). Our .NET developer was able to get .NET 2.0 to push out SOAP 1.1, but the application still won't connect to the Webservice, so I am thinking it must be looking for SOAP 1.0. The developer is trying to push our the SOAP as SOAP 1.0, but meanwhile, I would like to know: 1. Do the Webservice classes in Flash 8 only work with SOAP 1.0? What specs are they written for? 2. Does it appear that pushing our SOAP messages in SOAP 1.0 from .NET 2.0 is both possible, and a reasonable answer to the problem? Our developer seems to get .NET to push out SOAP 1.1, but not 1.0 and the app is still broken. 3. Has Adobe made any updates available for SOAP 1.1 or SOAP 1.2 (for Actionscript 2.0/Flash8, not Actionscript 3.0/FP9)? 4. It seems with Flex 2/ Flash CS3 Webservices are connected to differently - what SOAP formats are supported? (that said, I would hate to have to rebuild this application in Actionscript 3.0, though I love Actionscript 3.0).
