Hi,
I have been using flex with WO for about 8-10 months now, building a new
UI for new section of an existing app at the moment. Basically, the
approach I have taken is using flex HTTPService calls to direct actions
that return XML.
The direct actions generate XML using some custom xml generation classes
that make use of key value coding to inspect EOEntities, EOAttributes
etc. but i digress...
Having the result format set to "array" in Flex makes building a object
graph on the client-side pretty painless. I've also built a EOGenerator
style script to generate Actionscript classes for the client side based
on EOModel attributes, which makes things a bit easier.
I wanted to look into make LiveCycle Data services work with WO but its
not supported on OSX at the moment and there have been way too many cool
new things to get stuck into with Flex2/3 and AIR(beta) to bother, and
they approach I've used so far works great.
I dont think I'll bother building anymore WO UI's from now on. The flex
stuff is WAY too nice. For me, WOComponent & WODynamicElements died
(RIP) about 8 or 9 months ago..
IMO flex is the future of rich UI web applications. AJAX, HTML, no thanks.

I'm looking at Flex 2 right now, and I was wondering if any of you is
playing with this tech and if you are trying to integrate it with WO ?
I guess I need to create a WO implementation of AMF3 so that data
exchange is easier than using SOAP :-)
