Flex newbie question - debugging a remote object call

Hi, Sorry for the noob question. I am calling a cfc via remote object: <mx:RemoteObject     id="dataManager"     showBusyCursor="true"     destination="ColdFusion"     source="cfcs.portfolio">      <mx:method name="getPortfolio" result="returnHandler(event)" fault="Alert.show(event.fault.faultString)"/>      </mx:RemoteObject> I'm assuming that the method name should correspond to the function name that I want to call in the cfc? I don't seem to get any errors, so I'm assuming this call is happening fine, but how do I check? Is there the equivalent of cfdump in Flex? Cheers Will PS, after this, I want to 'loop' over the result of the remote object call and output it.

Run your app in debug mode and put a breakpoint in the returnHandler() function. Then you can inspect the results. Rick

also check out the mx:Tracetarget tag Regards, Stefan On 3 Apr 2008, at 13:17, Rick Root wrote: ----- Excess quoted text cut - see Original Post for more -----

or use Service Capture, trace(), Logging API, and/or debug mode on the server.  Checkout the link below for a preso on debugging: http://adobechats.adobe.acrobat.com/p91186888/   :) DK On Thu, Apr 3, 2008 at 8:51 AM, Stefan Richter <stefan@flashcomguru.com> wrote: ----- Excess quoted text cut - see Original Post for more -----

What I have done is just dump the data into a datagrid.  Here is some of my code:    private function returnHandler(e:ResultEvent):void    {        dgUsers.dataProvider = e.result;    }    <mx:DataGrid id="dgUsers" x="10" y="260" width="643" click="populateFormHandler()" height="164">        <mx:columns>            <mx:DataGridColumn headerText="User ID" dataField="userID" />            <mx:DataGridColumn headerText="User Name" dataField="username" />            <mx:DataGridColumn headerText="First Name" dataField="firstname" />            <mx:DataGridColumn headerText="Last Name" dataField="lastname" />        </mx:columns>    </mx:DataGrid> I have an app that I built to just try to do some of the basics which includes a login and CRUD functionality.  You can download it and hopefully learn from the source code.  http://www.jasonpresley.net/downloads/flexibleapp.zip Hope that helps!
