Webmaster Forum / Flash / Data Integration / September 2006

I am new to Flash 8. I am trying to consume a web service that is running on my
Java EE 5 (GlassFish) application server. First, can anyone comment on
compatability of Flash 8 with web services not created with Cold Fusion.

I am able to connect and execute a sample web (wsdl at
http://www.flash-mx.com/mm/tips/tips.cfc?wsdl).
This works for me.

But when I try to call a very simple service that I have defined using Java
JAX-WS, I don't see a response. I have attached action script code and xml for
my wsdl.

Most samples and tutorials that I have seen so far involve web services
defined in ColdFusion. However, what I need to do in my Flash 8 document is
directly access a web service defined and running in Jave EE 5 environment.
Does Flash 8 support this type of interoperability? Can anyone provide some
hints on how to get this working?

Thanks

import mx.data.components.WebServiceConnector;
_global.__dataLogger=new mx.data.binding.Log();  

var res:Function = function (evt:Object) {
    trace("result--->" + evt.target.results);
};
var stat:Function = function(evt:Object) {
    trace("stat---->" + evt.target.status);
};

var wsConn:WebServiceConnector = new WebServiceConnector();
wsConn.addEventListener("result", res);
wsConn.addEventListener("status", stat);
wsConn.WSDLURL =
"http://maniac.ckint.com:18181/SessionTest/SessionTestService?WSDL";
wsConn.operation = "getSessionInfo";
wsConn.params = [];
wsConn.suppressInvalidCalls = true;
wsConn.trigger();

Here is the xml for wsdl....
