[flexcoders] Re: Web services or FDS: which are you using?
we're using .net web services with our flex client. we did use flashorb (weborb as its now called) remoting. so, if money isn't an issue (and no doubt it isn't for FDS users, then i'd recomend weborb for people who have .net middle tiers). --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, ben.clinkinbeard [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: In my ongoing crusade to increase the attention given by Adobe to web service support in Flex, I decided to do a little impromptu survey.

Ben, We have been huge proponents of using Web Services with Flex for nearly two years now. The majority of the applications we develop for folks use either SOAP or REST styled web services. Some of our clients do use CF and / or RemoteObject back-ends and we work into their infrastructures, but left to our own devices, our reccomendation has always been Web Services. -- Dave Wolf Cynergy Systems, Inc.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: Web services or FDS: which are you using?
this is actually a topic I've wondered about. I'm using RemoteObjects with CF/Java as it is just uber kewl to have this serialisation of AS-Java/CFC. Using webservices you lose this kewlness, but is it really a missed thing for you all using web services? Or maybe its the application type that can drive this, eh? A phat Flex app with some really large forms and complex data model my scream for Remote Objects, but a Flex app doing more display of data may not. ???

[flexcoders] Re: Web services or FDS: which are you using?
Well, I don't have anything to miss since I've not used FDS and don't have experience with Java or CF. I am currently working in a .NET shop, so WS are really the only viable choice (barring WebOrb or whatever). My app pulls in reams of data from the web services, and I like that I can receive it as XML. The .. operator is a godsend when you're dealing with data that might be 15 levels deep in the return 'object'.
