Why would I need to use LiveCycle Data Services in a Flex app?

I cannot figure out what additional functionality is provided by using LiveCycle Data Services in my Flex apps. I cannot get a clear understanding of how using LiveCycle Data Services would benefit my applications. Does someone out there use LiveCycle Data Services? If so, what do you do with it in Flex?
Thanks!

- data push for publish/subscribe implementations
User has to do nothing to get updated information. You push it to their machine when new data is available, like Yahoo finance updated quotes.
- data paging
You don't want to display one million rows in your datagrid at once. Get a batch of data, if the user scrolls down, get the next batch, etc.
- server side clustering
One server does not get overloaded. High traffic sites have their large number of concurrent connections managed more efficiently.
- JMS services
JMS is a powerful technology for messaging throughout an application, and LCDS makes it much easier.
- RTMP tunneling
Allows the use of the RTMP protocol in LiveCycle Data Services applications. Makes it easier to traverse firewalls and proxies appropriately that currently prevent direct RTMP client connections to the server.

Deploy Flex app

I'm using FB3 to build and release Flex app. Copy the
bin-debug directory out of the workspace and change the directory
name, make a zip file from the directory.
Upload the zip file to the server and unzip the file.
FB3 creates a html wrapper for the swf file. Is accessing the
swf file directly better than going through the HTML
wrapper?

This is actually more of a SAP J2EE engine question as there
may be some set up that it keeping it from accessing the correct
jar files. I'm not sure how the SAP J2EE works, but it has tomcat,
the solution might be found here:
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=487257&messageID=2283292
The mx4j-jmx.jar probably has your missing files. You can
download it here (

and see if that works.

I have a production mobile Flex app that uses RemoteObject calls for all data access, and it's working well, except for a new remote call I just added that only fails when running with a release build. The same call works fine when running on the device

I have a production mobile Flex app that uses RemoteObject calls for all data access, and it's working well, except for a new remote call I just added that only fails when running with a release build. The same call works fine when running on the device (iPhone) using debug build. When running with a release build, the result handler is never called (nor is the fault handler called). Viewing the BlazeDS logs in debug mode, the call is received and send back with data. I've narrowed it down to what seems to be a data size issue.
I have targeted one specific data call that returns in the String value a string length of 44kb, which fails in the release build (result or fault handler never called), but the result handler is called as expected in debug build. When I do not populate the String value (in server side Java code) on the object (just set it empty string), the result handler is then called, and the object is returned (release build).
The custom object being returned in the call is a very a simple object, with getters/setters for simple types boolean, int, String, and one org.23c.dom.Document type. This same object type is used on other other RemoteObject calls (different data) and works fine (release and debug builds). I originally was returning as a Document, but, just to make sure this wasn't the problem, changed the value to be returned to a String, just to rule out XML/Dom issues in serialization.
I don't understand 1) why the release build vs. debug build behavior is different for a RemoteObject call, 2) why the calls work in debug build when sending over a somewhat large (but, not unreasonable) amount of data in a String object, but not in release build.
I have't tried to find out exactly where the failure point in size is, but, not sure that's even relevant, since 44kb isn't an unreasonable size to expect.
By turning on the Debug mode in BlazeDS, I can see the object and it's attributes being serialized and everything looks good there. The calls are received and processed appropriately in BlazeDS for both debug and release build testing.
Anyone have an idea on other things to try to debug/resolve this?
Platform testing is BlazeDS 4, Flashbuilder 4.7, Websphere 8 server, iPhone (iOS 7.1.2). Tried using multiple Flex SDK's 4.12 to the latest 4.13, with no change in behavior.
Thanks!

After a week's worth of debugging, I found the issue.
The Java type returned from the call was defined as ArrayList. Changing it to List resolved the problem.
I'm not sure why ArrayList isn't a valid return type, I've been looking at the Adobe docs, and still can't see why this isn't valid. And, why it works in Debug mode and not in Release build is even stranger. Maybe someone can shed some light on the logic here to me.

Using Weblogic to Deploy Simple Flex App

Hi,
   I am trying to deploy a simple Flex application in a weblogic8.1 server , so that I can use it locally.
Can any one please guide me where and how I have to deploy my flex app .
I am pretty new to this can any body provide me a guide or walk through step wise for me.
More over What is the url I need to give in the browser to access the flex app I deploy in the Weblogic server.
(At present I am using the IIS -- just copying the .swf file and wrapper html page in to the C:\Inetpub\wwwroot and giving http://localhost/test.html
in the browser to access it) --- How do I do this using Weblogic 8.1
thanks
Nash

Hi again Nash,
the stuff I am doing at present is not yet permitted to be publicly available, but the principles are very straightforward. Remember that WebLogic is primarily concerned with server-side functionality and Flex with client-side, so there is not really a great deal of overlap. The place where your Flex instantiation code will sit is in one or other JSP, using code very like the templates that Adobe generate. The only thing you have to do is ensure that your JSP (or the controller/code files behind it) generate HTML that contains the necessary. I tend to use the Apache Beehive libraries for UI stuff, but from vague memory I don't think these were around in WL8 - however, it doesn't really matter what tag library you prefer as all you are doing is generating HTML that looks like the usual JavaScript calls to AC_FL_RunContent (or swfobject if you are using that method). Basically, just take the Adobe-generated template and wrap the necessary bits and pieces round the edge to make it a proper JSP.
When you need to make calls to get functionality, just use something like
                    service = new HTTPService();
                    separator_date = new Date();
                    service.url = "get_tool_list.jsp?sep=" + separator_date.valueOf();
                    service.addEventListener(FaultEvent.FAULT , fault_handler);
                    service.addEventListener(ResultEvent.RESULT, resultHandler);
                    service.resultFormat = "text";
                    CursorManager.setBusyCursor();
                    service.requestTimeout = WEB_SERVICE_TIMEOUT;
                    service.send();
and then inside get_tool_list.jsp (or whatever...) do the server-side functionality you need, and return the result in a suitable format that the Flex resultHandler method can then interpret and make use of.
Hope that helps,
Richard

Issue in setting flex app in load balanced environment using SSL

I have developed the dashboard in my application using flex 3.0. For this I have used JSP wrapper around the flex application. My application runs on JBoss application server. for communication between flex app and my application i am using LCDS. HTTPService component is being used to receive data from the server. Channel definitions are given in service-config.xml for amf and http channels and for both secure secure and not secure mode. In my proxy-config.xml i have defined Channels and destinations.
services-config.xml
<channel-definition id="my-amf" class="mx.messaging.channels.AMFChannel">
    <endpoint url="http://{server.name}:{server.port}/{context.root}/messagebroker/amf" class="flex.messaging.endpoints.AMFEndpoint"/>
    <properties>
          <polling-enabled>false</polling-enabled>
    </properties>
</channel-definition>
<channel-definition id="my-secure-amf" class="mx.messaging.channels.SecureAMFChannel">
    <endpoint url="https://{server.name}:{server.port}/{context.root}/messagebroker/amfsecure" class="flex.messaging.endpoints.SecureAMFEndpoint"/>
    <properties>
          <add-no-cache-headers>false</add-no-cache-headers>
    </properties>
</channel-definition>
<channel-definition id="my-http" class="mx.messaging.channels.HTTPChannel">

</channel-definition>
<channel-definition id="my-secure-http" class="mx.messaging.channels.SecureHTTPChannel">

    <channel ref="my-http"/>
    <channel ref="my-amf"/>
    <channel ref="my-secure-http"/>
    <channel ref="my-secure-amf"/>

<destination id="dashboardJSPService">
    <properties>
<url>/kr/krportal/dashboardJSPService.jsf</url>
    </properties>
</destination>
In my development environment both secure and non secure mode were working fine. Now when I have deployed it behind the load balancer(which accepts secure requests only and if the request is not secure it redirects it to secure url) there is no response from the message broker servlet. One thing more I have observed is when the environment is non load balanced there are request like 'http://{server.name}:{server.port}/{context.root}/messagebroker/http'. and these requests are post request. But in load balanced environment with ssl the request is again like 'http://{server.name}:{server.port}/{context.root}/messagebroker/http' which is a post request and it is redirected to 'https://{server.name}:{server.port}/{context.root}/messagebroker/http' which is a get request. The content returned by this get request is null.
Looking for some comments
Thanks
Abhishek Gupta

if the load balancing environment is already well configured, thes rest is very easy, there is no difference between a configuration of load balancing environment and a simple one, for you that is transparent, except the manual deployment and manual copying
of files in the directory 15

Running a Flex App using Coldfusion Flash Remoting Services gives me a blank SWF file but no errors

I cannot get flex to compile to display anything. even if its
just a single panel and some text. If I use the wizard and choose
"Basic" or whatever, I get a flex app. But i am using cfcs so I
selected "Coldfusion Flash Remoting Services" and when I select
run, the browser pops up with a nice big blank screen. No loading
progress bar, no errors, nothing.
I am running cf8 as a standalone (developers edition)
under project properites --> server
root folder: C:\ColdFusion8\wwwroot
root url
http://localhost:8500/
context: (blank)
I have messed with context and webroot.
I doesn't matter if I use a remoteObject or not. Nothing
happens
i through in a crossdomain.xml into the root to open it up,
just to be sure.
I am really stumped. I had this working fine on a previous pc
(running cf7)
any ideas anyone???

I tried with some of the AS3 files from Adobe samples (http://www.adobe.com/devnet/actionscript/samples.html), for eg., the Drawing API. There are slider components in the flash app that don't show up either. Does that give anyone a clue as to what might be wrong? Thanks, Ramesh

Map Loader and Check In apps

My 808 pureview crashed a couple of weeks ago and now both the map loader and check in apps are not working I get a system error on the Check In app and a map loader error message when I try opening that app. I've done a firmware reinstall to see if that would sort it but it hasn't. I can only conclude that the two files are corrupted. Can anyone help?if it comes to it I will uninstall the entire Maps Suite but there is nothing listed in the Uninstall Applications list to do this. Will I have to find the individual files and delete them? If so can anyone tell me where they are in the C directory?
Thanks

Check in has been discontinued since version 3.9.95.However you can get it by searching over the net via Google search. I am using it but cant give You download links since that would be against forum rules.

Automating a flex app on a headless server

I have a flex chart drawing application that needs to be automated. When automated it will read in data from the DB, draw the charts, and save them as .png files. This works flawlessly on my localhost version of oc4j on my Mac. However it has never worked on our Solaris oc4j deployment which is a headless server. I've set flex to run as headless in the config files but no dice. How can I get this working? Here are some of the error messages I'm getting:
LINUX/UNIX browser attempting to launch /opt/sfw/bin/firefox http://flexdomain.yadayadyada
08/11/06 14:41:53

And here's a snippet from the Java which launches the flex app in the firefox browser:
String cmd = "/opt/sfw/bin/ff.sh "+ url; // ff.sh is a script which sets DISPLAY and launches firefox with the flex url
Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
Process p = rt.exec(cmd);
I'm using 10g, by the way.
Thanks!

Ok, I'm convinced that this is some sort of configuration problem. I can get the browser to launch when written as a simple java program compiled at the command line:
import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;
public class Launcher {
public static void main(String args[]) throws IOException {
String url = "http://www.ebay.com";
String[] commands = {"/bin/sh", "-c", "/opt/sfw/bin/firefox ", url, "-width", "1600", "-height", "1200", ":5"};
ProcessBuilder pb = new ProcessBuilder(commands);
Map<String, String> env = pb.environment();
env.put( "DISPLAY", ":5" );
Iterator it = env.entrySet().iterator();
while (it.hasNext()) {
Map.Entry pairs = (Map.Entry)it.next();
System.out.println("\t>> environ: "+pairs.getKey() + " = " + pairs.getValue());
Process process = pb.start();
The output is just to show the environment variables and it looks like this:

Configuring socket policy for flex apps(with blocked port 843)?

We have built several flex-based ecommerce apps for a fortune 500 customer of ours, that for various reasons, we need to use sockets to a different domain and requires a socket policy file, but were having trouble configuring our flex apps for deployment in thier enviornment where they are blocking virtually everything except port 80 . The current documentation in in regards to socket policy files and crossdomain files in a non-standard configuration not using port 843 is not providing any useful help to us.
Here is the scenario:
Flex apps are served from domain www.a.com in to users browsers via http. The apps then make socket connections to domain www.b.com:80 where there are php scripts serving json data to the flex apps via port 80 using http(we use sockets because we need to set and read back http headers). The problem is the flex apps cannot make socket connections to the www.b.com domain without errors like below(unless we setup a socket policy server on port 843 of www.b.com, in which case everything works):
Warning: Timeout on xmlsocket://www.b.com:80 (at 3 seconds) while waiting for socket policy file. This should not cause any problems, but see http://www.adobe.com/go/strict_policy_files for an explanation.
Error: Request for resource at xmlsocket://www.b.com:80 by requestor from http://www.a.com/bin-debug/DownloadManagerFlex.swf is denied due to lack of policy file permissions.
Error: Request for resource at xmlsocket://www.b.com:80 by requestor from http://www.a.com.us/bin-debug/DownloadManagerFlex.swf is denied due to lack of policy file permissions.
Since we cannot use port 843 for the socket policy file server, we setup the socket policy server on a different ip in the same domain: spf.b.com:80 (using the sample perl code Adobe provides), and per the docs(cited below), use Security.loadPolicyFile("xmlsocket://spf.b.com:80") before we invoke "socket.connect", to supposedly tell the flash player to check there for the socket policy file. The problem, as you can see from the error log, is that the loadPolicyFile("xmlsocket://spf.b.com:80") is ignored.
No matter what we do or how we set things up, we cannot get the flash player to recognize the loadPolicyFile(), it always wants to go to the port were making the socket connection on. It is unclear how to properly configure the flex app, socket policy file and crossdomain file for the above scenario. The docs allude to being able to serve the socket policy file from a different port 80 in the same domain as the socket connection were trying to make, but were having no luck with that.
->Can anyone shed some light on how to make this work or what are we missing/doing wrong? Also, if we can get this to work, are we stuck with a 3 second delay because this(very large) customer is blocking port 843?
As an aside, the documentation for all this is a bit scattered, unclear and contrdictory:
One document says:(http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flashplayer/articles/fplayer9_security_07.html)
"This warning usually means one of two things: first, that you need to set up a
            socket policy file server on port 843, which is the first location that Flash
            Player checks by default; or second, that you need to provide more explicit
            guidance to Flash Player from ActionScript by calling loadPolicyFile to indicate the location
            of a socket policy file. When you call loadPolicyFile rather than allowing Flash Player to check
            locations by default, Flash Player will wait as long as necessary for a
            response from a socket policy file server, rather than timing out after 3
            seconds."
Another document says(http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flashplayer/articles/socket_policy_files.html):
"If an ActionScript Security.loadPolicyFile() command exists within               the SWF file, then the Flash Player runtime checks that location. Flash Player checks               the destination of the loadPolicyFile() only after it has checked the               master policy file on port 843 for permission to acknowledge other policy               files. If the developer has not specified a loadPolicyFile() command,               then Flash Player checks the destination port of the connection."

I found the reason why the Flex application was ignoring the socket policy (crossdomain.XML). I have a policy server that listens to port 843 and submits the policy to the Flex client. My policy was getting ignored by the Flex application and I was getting the sandbox security error you were getting. The solution to this problem isto write a null byte right after the policy server sends the policy. I'm using Apache Mina that is wrtten is Java and the null byte is written as follows:
public void sessionCreated (IoSession session)
        throws Exception
        session.write(_policy); -- > policy string
        session.write("\u0000"); --> null byte
         //session.close(true); ---> No need to close the session because it is closed by the Flex client after it receives the null byte.
Now my Flex application can read and accept the policy from port 843 and I'm not getting more security violations.
Thanks for your reply,
