I need your help and hope for a quick response.

I am working on my first flex3/amfphp/Cairngorm project and have spent sleepless nights on basic issues! I just need some direction.

For the login section of my program, I created a LoginVO.as file as a value object to pass my userid and password to my php service. There is also a UserVO.as and UserVO.php value object files that are supposed to return the logged in user’s details (such as first_name, last_name, cell, etc.) The service works but I get an ArrayCollection returned instead of a UserVO object.

I have checked all my paths and they are correct. How can I fix this? Do I need to map the array collection returned to my VO. This seems to defeat the purpose of using amfphp and remote objects….

Please help urgently.

Thanks

Thanks for your response…

I am busy going through your Cairngorm articles/recipes (Chapter4) – the cookbook is great but reading your code is extremely tedious! The black background and dark blue color of some of the code just does not work!! Make the background a lighter color to make it easy on our eyes

What’s happened to the first part of the cookbook? I can’t access it at all – just a blank page with a title and no info….

I am looking for resources that explain AMFPHP/Cairngorm and Flex3 simply for someone new to Flex…

Compliments on a cool site tho

If TableA has the following naming convention:

ID VARCHAR NOT NULL
poSTitle VARCHAR NOT NULL
POsTbODY TEXT NOT NULL

And we want to be able to rename our fields comming back, so we can create our own
names for the columns.

We want to create something alittle bit more readable, for example:

$post_id
$post_title
$post_body

The record set that we are taking is a object,
then we are filtering those fields, and assigning
them to the variables that we created.

we would use something like this

$this->VARIABLE = ARGUMENT["NAME-OF-COLUMN"];

Now we can get a clean output of our data,
I have tried using amfphp without doing this and it
wasn’t a pretty sight, all of the names were jacked up and I just couldn’t
stand looking at those horrible names from the database. Amfphp can be used
with out mapObject(obj) and it can, I prefer using it.

>I’ve created one robust Flex / AMFPHP app using caringorm, so my questions are in that context

In ‘SnippetVO.as’ I don’t understand what is happening in your in constuctor. Any reason why just an empty constructor won’t do?

Next, in ‘SnippetVO.php’ , you have ‘mapObject’. Why is that? When I made my app, my php VO was just the variables, everything was always typed and uber cool.

Look forward to taking this apart. Thanks

Keep up the great work!
