Flex2, Cairngorm2, AMFPHP login example

I have created an example showcasing Flex2 Beta2, Cairngorm2 and AMFPHP. It uses a custom RemoteObjectAMF0 component I created. The custom component allows access to AMF0 format services. The access tries to mimic a subset of what you can do with the Flex 1.5 RemoteObject. It does not support all the features of Flex 1.5 RemoteObject and is first draft code, but it can work nicely in the context of Cairngorm’s Service.mxml (ServiceLocater) code structure.

The example code is currently in the context of the Cairngorm Login example that is found in the Cairngorm 2 download.

Please remember that AMF3 is the newer AS3/Flex2 format and therefore the longevity of the custom RemoteObjectAMF0 is unknown. A few of us are hoping to see a AMF0 supported RemoteObject to be part of the Flex2. But in the end it does not matter once Flex2 is released and AMF3 gets embraced by a wider adapter/connector base.

You can find the example (as well as another example I created) located here:

Mobile 5 and PocketPC Flash Player 7, Flex works!

The new Flash Player for Mobile 5 and Pocket PC can be found here Link to Flash Player 7 PocketPC.

I have tried out the download and it installed fine on my Treo 700w. So far with my limited testing I see my flex application trying to initialize and load when it bonks out and gives me an out of memory error.

I just tested FLV’s they play but the devices CPU speed will make a big difference if it works or not. It was choppy probably from CPU performance issues, but the FLV’s played. (700w I think is about 312Mhz XScale)

I tested a very basic Flex application, and everything worked just fine. Device specifications will affect the abilities of the application.

My phone is constantly crashing since I have installed Flash Player 7 for Pocket PC, might need some work.
