WebService setup for FDS
Updated for Flex FDS
After struggling for a while to get my webservice setup under FES FDS, I finally got all working properly last week so I thought I would post some insight.
Here is the config that you will need to use for FES FDS:
Add an entry like this to your flex-proxy-service.xml proxy-config.xml file:
<destination id=”myWS” adapter=”soap-proxy”>
<properties>
<wsdl>http://www.whatever.com/Mywebservice.wsdl</wsdl>
<soap>http://www.whatever.com/Mywebservice*</soap>
</properties>
</destination>
Now restart your FES FDS server.
Next add a webservice tag to your application using the id as the destination
<mx:WebService id=”myWS”
destination=”myWS”
useProxy=”true”
showBusyCursor=”true”
concurrency=”single”
result=”mx.controls.Alert.show( event.result )”
fault=”mx.controls.Alert.show( event.fault)”>
</mx:WebService>
Call your methods using myWS as the identifier. Ex: myWS.myMethod();
Note: If you wish to use a named service within FlexBuilder (non FES FDS application) you will need to add an argument to your Flex Compiler arguments under the project properties:
mxmlc –services=./mypath/to/flex-enterprise-services.xml etc
