I am trying to convert some perl/php code to python for use in zope.
I have never done anything like this.
If anyone would like to help, please post a response.
Flash Remoting is a way to share datastructures between Cold Fusion and
flash,make a dataset, varible, or array in cold fusion/java, retreve it
as a map,variable,array in flash via flashs' OO language actionscript.
http://www.macromedia.com/software/flashremoting/
This protocol is referred to by macromedia as AMF
These guys:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/amfphp
http://www.simonf.com/flap/
have hacked the protocol and written scripts to send datastructures from
perl and php.
Make an array in PHP, call it from flash..
It would be nice if there was a version of this code available in
python.
Zope is a Python based Object Oriented web application platform.
www.zope.org
If flash could share datasets with ZOPE, a developer could make a Zope
site to contain the data structure, searches, and navigation structure,
and flash designers could access these datastructures to easily build
dynamic flash sites.
Zope and flash already support xml-rpc, however AMF is far better.
