Flash SOAP support for JBoss/JBoss.net

["Frederick N. Brier" <fb...@multideck.com>]

Good news!  We have the beginnings of support for Flash clients directly 
invoking SOAP services on a JBoss server.  The code has been checked into 
the CVS repository on Sourceforge.  All that is needed is to 
uncomment/comment a section in two different files: install-axis.xml and 
axis-config.xml.  Also included is an example Hello World Flash client with 
the .html, .swf, and .fla files.  So with these, you can invoke a Hello 
World EJB via the Hello World SOAP service from a Flash client.  I am 
currently working on a set of Actionscript classes to support fault 
handling, session tracking, and integrated security, as well as some more 
complex server side examples.  Please note that the default value for the 
Service is incorrect, it must be changed to "/axis/services/Hello".  The 
value currently in place is part of an effort to both support multiple 
services, ie: Flash and non-Flash simultaneously.  Also note you need to 
copy the hello.ear into the deploy directory prior to launching JBoss.
