Flex 3 0 - Remote Object - CFCs

Without CF running locally its really hard to test.  I think most   Flex/CF dev's are running CF locally then move to production. Do you have access to mapping on the server?  I would start simple by   placing a simple cfc that returns a string into the root and try call   that from flex and retrun a string once you get the setup I would   request a mapping so you can package your cfcs. The source attribute on the remote object is the path to the cfc   following mappings in Johns example.  ie com.company.user is mapped   to the com mapping /company/user.cfc this is not the only way but its   my preferred way. I think with Flex 3 to convert the server type you may need to   recreate the project as it imports some extra information and just   move the file across from the old project. If you get page cannot be found then you will have to ask then to   turn on remoting hopefully they will. Paul.
