The
serviceName
, which is the name of the remote service. To select the appropriate value
for this example, see the table that follows this section.
■
The two
null
values represent the
connection
and
responder
parameters, which are not
used in this case. For information about these parameters, see the constructor for the Service
class in Flash Remoting ActionScript Dictionary Help.
The
serviceFunctionName
is the name of the service function that you call. To select the
appropriate value for this example, see the table that follows this section.
The call to the
howdyService. serviceFunctionName ()
service function returns a
PendingCall object, called
pc
in this example. It contains a
responder
property which the
application sets with a RelayResponder object. The RelayResponder object specifies the object
(first parameter) that contains the methods that handle the values returned by the service
function. The second parameter in the RelayResponder constructor specifies the result handler
method and the third parameter specifies the fault handler method.
This example handles the results returned by the service function using callback functions
named
serviceFunctionName _Result()
or
serviceFunctionName _Fault()
. If the call to
the service function succeeds, the
_Result
function is called and it processes the result. If the
service function fails, the
_Fault
function is called to handle the error.
The result, which is the value that you expect from the service function, is returned in a
ResultEvent object. The fault, which the service returns for an error condition, is returned in a
FaultEvent object.
For more information about connecting to remote services and handling results, see Chapter 2,
“Using Flash Remoting ActionScript,” on page 29 .
