RE: [flexcoders] Re: setUsernamePassword on RemoteObject
Picking up on an old thread from back in July, where calling addHeader
on a NetConnection object got authentication working with Coldfusion
when I try to do the same thing in Flex 2 Alpha 1, I get:
code: NetConnection.Call.Failed and description: HTTP: Failed
Does anyone know if addHeader is still supposed to be available, if its
a bug, or if the parameters have changed?
Yours truly,

Credentials sent in custom manner are never sent using HTTP Headers. The
information is contained within the AMF/HTTP POST body.
The Flex-only API, setUsernamePassword, works on a per request basis and
sends credential information inside a special Flex Envelope type which
can have per-request headers. The legacy Flash Remoting setCredentials
API worked on a per AMF packet basis (which potentially contained a
batch of several requests as per NetConnection) and was sent as an AMF
Header. Either way, you can only have one J2EE or CF session per
connection, and connections are pooled on endpoint URI in Flex. So it
should be fine for you to use the old setCredentials() API in most
cases.
You could just call setCredentials() on the RemoteObject connection
property yourself... it simply sets an AMF Header on the underlying
NetConnection with an anonymous object that has two properties 'userid'
and 'password'.
addHeader(Credentials, false, {userid: userId, password:
password});

Hi,
I'm trying to use the flash remoting setCredentials equivalent in
flex to
send a username and password with my remote object requests.
I can see the Credentials being set in the header when i view the
traffic in
the netConnectionDebugger, but nothing seems to be in the http

hence is not picked up in cflogin
Any ideas?

RE: [flexcoders] Re: setUsernamePassword on RemoteObject
If you are using the new Flex 2 Coldfusion Adapter and CF7, use
remoteObjectID.setUsernamePassword(username, password) and in CF you'll see
them in the cflogin scope #cflogin.name# #cflogin.password#
Hope this helps

RE: [flexcoders] Re: setUsernamePassword on RemoteObject
I *think* you will be out of luck with Flex2 as I think they have made
changes to remoteobject/AMF which require the new CF adapter (if you use
Coldfusion) or Flex Enterprise Services. In essence, with Flex 2, it seems
that remoteobject and the associated speed enhancements of AMF are only
available to 'Enterprise' users and/or us CF'ers.
Maybe someone from MM can clarify but I think you will have to look at
'ordinary' web services if you must use Flex2 without the CF Adapter and
CF7.

Ian

Re: [flexcoders] Re: setUsernamePassword on RemoteObject
Thanks Matt, For what it might be worth, I have applications where I've used the NetConnection and RecordSet classes and little else. This has saved me from worrying about changes in the remoting classes and components in the past. The easiest Flex adoption path for me is if I can bolt new standalone based clients on to existing Flash/Coldfusion applications. I was hoping to port a couple apps to Flex 2 this way.

Andrew, you could of course provide your own login() method inside a CFC which does the CFLOGIN work for you. This way you only need to send the username and password once (with the login call) and then use IsUserInRole()/GetAuthUser() inside your CFC methods afterwards.

RE: [flexcoders] Re: setUsernamePassword on RemoteObject
Credentials sent in custom manner are never sent using HTTP Headers. The
information is contained within the AMF/HTTP POST body.
The Flex-only API, setUsernamePassword, works on a per request basis and
sends credential information inside a special Flex Envelope type which
can have per-request headers. The legacy Flash Remoting setCredentials
API worked on a per AMF packet basis (which potentially contained a
batch of several requests as per NetConnection) and was sent as an AMF
Header. Either way, you can only have one J2EE or CF session per
connection, and connections are pooled on endpoint URI in Flex. So it
should be fine for you to use the old setCredentials() API in most
cases.
You could just call setCredentials() on the RemoteObject connection
property yourself... it simply sets an AMF Header on the underlying
NetConnection with an anonymous object that has two properties 'userid'
and 'password'.
addHeader(Credentials, false, {userid: userId, password:
password});

Thanks Vinny,
Im assuming theres no workaround for this? Im probably just gonna pass
the username and password as variables with each call then. Im using
the cairngorm framework and I have a delegate super class so I can
hide it all in there ;)
cheers,

This is a known bug in Flex 1.5. The setUsernamePassword API is not
connected to CFLOGIN. Hope they will fix it in Flex 2.

Hi,
I'm trying to use the flash remoting setCredentials equivalent in
flex to
send a username and password with my remote object requests.
I can see the Credentials being set in the header when i view the
traffic in
the netConnectionDebugger, but nothing seems to be in the http
header, and
hence is not picked up in cflogin
Any ideas?
