RE: [flexcoders] Anyone Using a Remote CF Server with Flex 2, Remoting?
Nope, the fact that server B has a /crossdomain.xml file is not relevant and not even known at compile time. In fact, for RPC services like RemoteObject, WebService and HTTPService, compiling against services-config.xml is only a convenience. The MXML compiler uses this information to generate some ActionScript code for you so it saves you from having to construct the list of mx.messaging.Channel implementations used to construct a ChannelSet (it takes a set because it allows you specify multiple channels and fail over to the next channel in in the event that one fails to connect). If you're comfortable with Channels you can programmatically create your own instances instead.

Re: [flexcoders] Anyone Using a Remote CF Server with Flex 2, Remoting?
You got it doug. Thats why i copy the services-config.xml file to a local directory in my project and use the -services to tell flex builder how to find it. When I create a new project I tell flex builder its a normal project then I add the -services as a compiler argument. This allows me to develop different applications for different servers without having to manage them all in my main cf services-config file. simeon On 1/11/07, Douglas Knudsen [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: no way!

Everything is default. CFMX 7.0.2 Multiserver on IIS DevNet Edition for

This is as basic as it gets - I am trying to get a HelloWorld app (from

I have taken the time to read past entries on this topic, but the issues
were slightly different than mine and didn't offer enough of a solution

In my HelloFromColdfusion.mxml file is the following code:

In a subdirectory in the webroot called flex2btb, in the flex directory
is MyService.cfc. I have the crossdomain.xml file in my webroot also.
The code is very basic:
cfcomponent extends=Service

cfreturn Hello World from Coldfusion

Re: [flexcoders] Anyone Using a Remote CF Server with Flex 2, Remoting?
It's your services-config.xml that is off. Try using this:
?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8?
services-config
services
service id=amfphp-flashremoting-service
class=flex.messaging.services.RemotingService
messageTypes=flex.messaging.messages.RemotingMessage
destination id=amfphp
channels
channel ref=my-amfphp/
/channels
properties
source*/source
/properties
/destination
/service
/services
channels
channel-definition id=my-amfphp
class=mx.messaging.channels.AMFChannel
endpoint uri=http://localhost/amfphp/gateway.php;
class=flex.messaging.endpoints.AMFEndpoint/
/channel-definition
/channels
/services-config
Set destination to 'amfphp' and 'endpoint' to your ColdFusion endpoint
in the RemoteObject tag. Then you can change the 'amfphp' names to
'coldFusion' if it bothers you ;)

RE: [flexcoders] Anyone Using a Remote CF Server with Flex 2, Remoting?
1. Do you have a crossdomain.xml file in the webroot of the server
hosting the flex2gateway endpoint allowing access for SWFs loaded in
other domains?
2. I think you are relying on the default context root for your cold
fusion deployment, if so, try removing the {context-root} token out of
your channel-definition in services-config.xml (or alternatively provide
a value for the command line args -context-root )

no way! I thought that was for webservices or REST calls only. Interesting, So I can have a SWF served from server A that connects to server B via remoteobject if server B has a crossdomain file?
