Why do I need Flash Remoting MX Components

hello;
it has been 2 years since I have worked with remoting,
specifically on the Communication Server; then I only needed the
NetConnection.call();
but now I am being told that I need Flash Remoting MX
Components which have to be downloaded and installed like a plugin;
does NetConnection NOT offer the same access??
any thoughts or opinions please;
thanks

You need it for data because you have to use the remoting
classes for remoting to work in flash 8.
I have nevered used comm server because red5 is free so I
could not tell you how to connect to that.

Why do I need Flash Media Server

Hello
My company produces advergames. We have just made a football
quiz that streams all questions and video content (quite small
content). The quiz will be on thousands of websites and will
probably get over 4 million users within a month.
Do I need Flash Streaming Media servcie to help me with this
and can anyone give me any ideas to the problems that may arise
from streming that much media?
Many thanks
Matmijeff

You need a streaming server to do it. FMS is (IMO) the best
choice, but there are two others I know of
Red5 (
http://osflash.org/red5) . Red5
is an open source, free (as in beer), java based flash media
server. It's still in beta, but I hear it's shaping up to be a
pretty solid server.
Wowza Media Server (
http://www.wowzamedia.com)
also has a java based flash server in beta, and the beta program is
open to the public. The projected prices (on their site) put the
price at about half that of FMS.
Just curious, how many people do you need to serve at once?
If it's 10 or less, you can use the free FMS developer
license.

Why do we need a Self Reference "me" to use the components of a class

Hi
I am not clear why do we need a self reference variable "me" to call the components of its own class? when it can be accessed directly as in the following examples?
In my first example below i can call the method display_name directly without creating a reference object or instance of the class within the class.
In the second example i am using the self refernce Write me->name to access the component of a class.
My question is why do we need "me" when i can use the components directly as shown in my first example.

You can go WIKI and search with ABAP Objects.
Or do the same in 'advanced search' and select a search area. You are bound to find something.

Lastest Flash (16.0.0.305) is installed but Firefox still says I need Flash for most videos. Why?

I have installed flash multiple times, restarted Firefox, and everything I can think of but every time I come to a page that uses flash player it STILL Says I need Flash player to see the video or whatever is using flash. This has been going on for a while now since the last Firefox update.

In your More System Details, there is a mystery line that just says "Flash" while the official line says "Shockwave Flash". Could you use by test page to generate a list of the full information for each plugin so it's easier to figure out which one is the stranger?
http://dev.jeffersonscher.com/jstest.asp
Scroll down a bit to the plugin list. It's the "Description" line that will say just "Flash". What is the name of the plugin?

Secure Flash Remoting from main.asc not returning a result

Hi, Iv got a problem here that could be Flash Remoting or
Flash Media Server related
I have created an application that uses flash media server
and flash remoting.
For authentication in my app I used Kevin Towes suggested
method "Secure Authentication with Flash Communication Server:
Using Tickets and Flash Remoting MX." His article is here
Download
PDF Here
Now to the problem...
My application has no problem connecting to coldfusion using
flash remoting with the defaultGateway url set to
"https://www.mysite.com" (ie over SSL)
However In main.asc, on the Flash Media Server
When Flash Media server attempts to validate the login by
connecting to CFMX using flash remoting it gets no response when
using a secure gateway url. If I set the default gateway url to
just
http://www.mysite.com it works
great.
Why do I not get any response when using https as my gateway
url from Flash Media Server?
thanks

Sounds like you need to enable mappings for your remoting
gateway. I'm not sure if it's the same as Flex, but here's what you
might need to do, or something similar...
In c:\cfusion8\wwwroot\WEB-INF\flex\remoting-config.xml (or
wherever CF is installed) look for the <use-mappings> node
and set the value to true. You will need to restart CF

How to test flash remoting?

I am using cf 7.0.2.I want to use coldfusion remoting.
Please let me know if I need install other software and how
to make it work.
I also need to know how to test the function.Thanks

flash remoting is built-in in CF7, and unless you need to
enable
integration of webs services, you do not need to change
anything
to test if fr is enabled, just go to
http://localhost/flashservices/gateway
- if you see a blank page in
response you are good to go
you will obviously need MM/Adobe Flash to make flash movies
that
get/post data with remoting... keep in mind, though, that
flash
remoting components were included with Flash only up to ver 8
(Flash CS3
does not have them at all, since it uses a different approach
altogether; though you can still make it work with components
for
previous flash versions, it is a bit of a PIA...)
i am sure others will add a lot to this (i am just a casual
flash
remoting coder/user - it is not my sharpest knife...)
a few websites that helped me get going were:
http://www.asfusion.com/blog/entry/remoting-for-coldfusion-flash-forms

The future of Flash Remoting?

We are about to embark on a major, long term project which
requires Flash/Database connectivity and Flash Remoting seemed the
perfect way to go. Having just acquired Flash CS3, I encountered
some difficulty since there is no Remoting Components package
available for CS3. I did however find this link and manage to get
my AS2.0 code to run:
http://blog.vixiom.com/2007/04/17/actionscript-20-flash-remoting-with-flash-cs3
This makes me worried about the future of Flash Remoting - I
don't want to purchase and then be locked into a technology that
gets shelved or overlooked by Adobe. I am aware of the AMFPHP
toolkit but this since we are going with .NET this is not
appropriate. Does anyone else have the same fears or does anyone at
Adobe have any information on what the future of Flash Remoting
will be?
Thanks guys

Sorry it took me a few days to get this up but here you go.

Help w/speed of Flash application - Use load vars, flash remoting or other....

I'm looking for a little help with a dynamic Flash
application I am building with ColdFusion integrated. I need the
Flash to load and interact with a SQL Server database as quickly as
possible as the user interacts with the Flash application. I have
done research and thought that Flash Remoting was the way to go
especially when using ColdFusion with Flash, but I am experiencing
a lot of lag time when a user tries to load more data.
So I'm looking for some advice on what is the fastest/best
way to pass data back and forth between Flash and ColdFusion.
Currently I am using Flash Remoting via ColdFusion web services
(first time using this), but again with the lag time I am receiving
I am thinking maybe my old way of using LoadVars would be faster? I
am also open to any other means to pass data from ColdFusion/SQL
database to Flash that exist. I am just looking for the quickest
way for my customers to interact with the Flash piece.
Thanks for all your help!

Also would like to note that internet explorer does not have this problem, I would prefer to figure out why this is happening and resolve it as I hate IE.

Why do I need Quick time 7 and Quicktime 10 ?

I have just migrated from iMac5 (2.16 GHz) Mac OS 10.4.11 Quicktime 7.6.4 to a new imac 3.06 Mac OS 10.6.2 Quicktime 10.0.
Some of my quicktime files play ok but others prompt me to download quicktime version 7. Why do I need to do this ? (There seem to be a lot of problems with this looking at the forums). All the files play on the old mac. Why isn't Quicktime forward compatible or why is there no import facility so that you can make your old files compatible ?
Or am I missing something ?

Some of my quicktime files play ok but others prompt me to download quicktime version 7. Why do I need to do this ?
Because your system thinks you are missing specific codecs required for the playback of certain compression formats. In some cases this may be an installation problem in which the codec was "lost" or "orphaned" during the update process. In others it may be a need to update the component to work properly under the dual QT X/7 framework installed under the Snow Leopard OS. You need to check the Inspector/Finder Info or similar window to determine what specific codec is causing the problem and then re-install or update that specific codec/component/package.
(There seem to be a lot of problems with this looking at the forums).
Most of the problems are "self-inflicted" by individuals who, rather than studying the problem symptoms, analyzing them to determine their cause, and then fixing the problems, elect to immediately delete and re-install software -- often attempting to mix components from different operating systems and/or update versions of the software in their haste.
All the files play on the old mac. Why isn't Quicktime forward compatible or why is there no import facility so that you can make your old files compatible?
I am running both Leopard and Snow Leopard variations of QT v7.6.6 and all of my "old" files have remained compatible -- to include MPEG-2 video and a limited number of third-party supported compression formats. Since my configurations continue to work properly, my first guess is that you have an unresolved configuration problem or inability for your QT X 64-bit routines to communicate/switch properly with the 32-bit routines as required for your content.
Why do I need Quick time 7 and Quicktime 10?
Technically, you probably don't. However, as an old QT 7 Pro user who likes many of the QT 7 Player controls/options/features better than QT X's new but more basic features, I maintain both in active service and tend to use QT 7 as the default player of most of my work flows. Still, this is up to the individual. I am in no hurry to rush the changeover from an older but still more reliable QT technology to a more modern, but as yet, less mature and well tested "new" QT technology. In short, I feel it best to make the most of both dispensations during the development of this "new" version of QT.

Why doesn't my iTunes Remote App point to my iCloud content? Why does it have to point to my iTunes content on my PC?

Hi,
I just set up a 3rd-gen Apple TV. W/ iTunes Match & Home Sharing, I'm able to play my songs or TV shows on my TV.
Then, I installed the Apple Remote app on my iPad. It points to my Apple TV but then can displays & plays only the songs, not the TV shows.
When I fire up iTunes on my PC, I can point the Remote app to my iTunes library on my PC, which includes both songs & TV shows. When I close or turn off the PC, then I lose the pointer.
Questions:
(1) Why can't I just point the Remote app to iCloud/iTunes Match - and access ALL my content (i.e., both songs & TV shows)? Why do I need to point to my local PC to access all content?
(2) Is it that iCloud/iTunes Match store only songs & not TV shows/other content? Is that why I need to point to a local machine to access TV shows?
Let me know -

iTunes match is for music and music video only.

Dimension declaration. Why do we need it?

Hey, Oracle data warehouse gurus.
It should be an easy question for you.
Why do we need to declare dimension on the top of the dimension table (CREATE DIMENTION dimension_name ...)?
It seems to me that many functions such as rollup, cube and the like do not need this dimension metadata.
I am using Crystal Holos OLAP server to do data mining and reporting and again this tool (at least version 7.5) does not use dimension metadata. I suppose that some OLAP servers do.
Thanks in advance for your answer.

Hello Rajsan Madhavarajan
Query as a Web Service (QaaWS) is a SAP Business Objects (BOBJ) client-side tool that allows users to create and publish Web Services that can be made available over the Web. Once these web services are created and published, they can be consumed like any other standard Web Service in software applications including Xcelsius and Crystal Reports. But first we have to understand what exactly is a Web Service.
Web Service
A Web Service is a software system that supports interoperable interaction over a network from one computer or machine to another but is more commonly defined as a client and a server communicating data over the Web using the HTTP Protocol. Using Web Services along with Business Objects allows a live connection of data to be used in applications such as Xcelsius and Crystal Reports through a semantic layer called a Universe.
Query as a Web Service (QaaWS)
The two main components in QaaWS are the Client Tool and the Server. The QaaWS Client Tool gives the end user an easy to use wizard that allows them to create Universe queries and publish them as Web Services. Once the QaaWS is published, any user can securely access the data that the Web Service contains as long as they have access to that server. Have a look on image below that shows the information flow to and from the server via the client.
Advantages to QaaWS:
Very easy to use and intuitive interface Familiar look and feel for people who have used Web Intelligence
Leverages existing Business Objects Universes Shares metadata with Web Intelligence, Desktop Intelligence and Crystal Reports
Maintains Business Objects Enterprise Security
Allows live data feeds to be incorporated into Xcelsius Dashboards and Crystal Reports

Flash Remote Debugger Help

Yesterday, my Flash CS3 AS2 remote debugging stopped working
after I installed a number of Adobe updates and on Mac OS X (Intel)
update. Before I installed the updates, I was able to debug any SWF
loaded in my browser window with the CS3 debug interface and output
window. After I rebooted, all of my browsers stopped sending my the
prompt to connect to a local host or enter an IP. Also, "debug" is
no longer an option in the drop down menu when I right click on the
swf in the browser window. Flash remote debugging is marked
properly in the FLA publish settings and a new SWD is being
published every time I test. But the player doesn't attempt to
connect at all! I don't know if the loss of this functionality is
related to the updates but it does seem that way.
Any help, please?!
Thanks,
Steven

Problem solved. After the update, I needed to get the newest
version of the Adobe Debug Player for Intel Macs.
see what players you have here:

Where is flash remoting in actionscript 3.0\flash cs5

hello everybody,
i have been looking throught all the available tutorials on this site including flash cs5 help, actionscript 3.0 developer's guide, learning actionscript 3.0 and i can't seem to find anything relating to flash remoting (i.e how to retrieve and send data to and from a server like coldfusion). has it been removed?
i have solutions that were built with flash and actionscript 2.0 that uses data retrieved from coldfusion server for it's operation, i was thinking of migrating them to actionscript 3.0, but it keeps saying that the classes, packages or interfaces like mx.remoting, mx.rpc can not be found. even when i create a new flash document specifying 2.0 as the docuent type, it is still not compiling,. does this mean i have to revert to flash 8\actionscript 2.0 because that is what i built the programs with. please any information or guidiance will be highly appreciated.
thanks to you all.

To do it in AS2 you need just install the remoting classes again. You can either copy them fro your old install or get them:
http://drupal.org/node/258605
Scroll down a bit and you'll see a link to the as2 remoting classes: Remoting_FlashCS3.zip
In AS3 there are a few ways. Some people have made classes for it, or you can use the built in methods of NetConnection. Here's a couple examples of that:

FLEX 2... Or Flash Remoting

Hi, could someone please help me make a decision with which
architecture to use to build a flash application?
I want a flash front end, i dont care about users who dont
have a flash player; this is for a commercial enterprise for a
specific user base. My application is for property, the management
and maintenance of, so the property is the main object and all data
relating to its financial budgets, leaseholders who live in the
block, maintenance records, health and safety and cleaning records;
etc. The users all need to be directed by and communicate through
this central organisation and management tool.
I can use Flash pretty well but have never used flash
remoting or ever learned to connect flash to database query
results.
So do i build using the Flex 2, Adobe Air, or Flash Remoting
MX
I have been learning Coldfusion and have a back end being
developed as we speak in fusebox methodology and microsoft sql
database.

Hi,
If you must make application more flexible for you,
you must get Flex. it's an ide.
If you want to custom componant or animation you must take
flash.

Why we will go for Remote cube

Hi experts,
Why we will go for Remote cube instead of Basic cube, What are the advantages of Remote cube ? At what circumstances we wii go for Remote cube ?

Hi,
the reason is.
Use SAP RemoteCubes if:
·        You need very up-to-date data from an SAP source system
·        You only access a small amount of data from time to time
·        Only a few users execute queries simultaneously on the database.
Do not use SAP RemoteCubes if:
·        You request a large amount of data in the first query navigation step, and no appropriate aggregates are available in the source system
·        A lot of users execute queries simultaneously
·        You frequently access the same data
