Being the adventures of a young man whose principal interests are Flash, usability and Beastie Boys.

I have been banging my head against a wall for days. I am trying to get web services to work in an AIR app built with Flash CS3. My co-workers use a solution that works for Flash only http://labs.qi-ideas.com/2007/12/25/using-flex-compiled-code-within-flash

But every time I tried to use it with an AIR app it would crash.

I then found http://manmachine-tech.blogspot.com/

but after days of frustration I found a critical bug:

In the WSProxy class there is a variable _busyOnCall = true; that gets set within callMethod()

and it gets set to false in onComplete()

but it NEVER GETS SET IN onFault

After that it’s all good. I hope this helps anyone in the same boat as myself.
