You won't have any problem accessing the data. It's actually a bit
easier in AIR than the Flash Player as the security model is a bit more

Short answer. You can't.

I believe it is, but you need to make sure your LCDS setup is correct
for clustering, and that your load balancer is using sticky sessions for
it to work.
BlazeDS is open source so you could grab the code and make the changes
yourself. It should just be a case of removing the check.
The android tools will download it for you if you sync them up.
It's to get round a session based issue.
If you roll BlazeDS back to 3.0.0.544, you'll get the version before the

I want to use Secure AMF to authenticate the user, and then use regular
AMF from that point on, without having to re-authenticate.
I'm struggling to find a way to allow the separate Channels the share
the same authentication...
It also appears BlazeDS doesn't agree with the Flex documentation...
Channelset says the RO is authenticated if one of the channels in the
set is.
I set up two ROs, and two Channelsets each with the same two Channels
but in a different order (secure first in one, non-secure in the other),
then
With further reading it appears that having two Channels going to the
same server isn't allowed by BlazeDS anyway! It will throw errors around
DuplicateSessions, because the JsessionId isn't shared between the
channels.
It surely can't be this hard to do something so straightforward?
Rolling back to BlazeDS 3.0.0.544 gets rid of the duplicate session
issue, but the second session is still not authenticated, again because
it's trying to use a different JSessionId.
So it boils down to Flash side of things, what can I do to set the
JSessionId from one Channel on another?
Success I think. My brain is totally fired at this point, so if someone
can see the problem in this, bellow loudly please!
