Setting Up Flex Remoting in Apollo

April 12, 2007

Getting Flex Remoting working in an Apollo Application. Took a minute because I didn’t realize that Flex Remoting uses a different gateway than AS2. I’ve never tried to connect a Flex 2 application to an absolute path before, but this is how you go about it:

<mx:RemoteObject
id="appRemote"
makeObjectsBindable="true"
endpoint="http://www.something.com/flex2gateway/"
source="some.lib.crud"
destination="ColdFusion"
showBusyCursor="true">
</mx:RemoteObject>

Once I got the gateway right, the whole thing started working.
