[flexcoders] RemoteObjects - ActionScript parameters

2006-07-19 Thread Mike Anderson
Hello All, I am finally getting time to dive into my Flex 2.0 programming, and RemoteObjects are at the top of my list. I simply don't have the funds for FDS, so I just need to master the basic built-in down and dirty methods of doing basic Remoting inside of Flex 2.0. Coming from the Flash

Actually, I would benefit from a quick tutorial like this too - I did this a ways back with Flex 1.5 and .NET Remoting - but I have to track down all my old source code. I am sure there are some differences now with Flex 2.0 as well - so I'd love a definitive example, on how to create a quick

2005-06-24 Thread Mike Anderson
Hello All, I am using the .NET Remoting environment - exclusively using Assemblies (.dll's) Due to absolutely poor documentation, MM makes VERY poor distinctions of the Assembly method of Remoting (using the ASObject), and using code behind .ASPX pages which I refuse to use. It looks to me,
