Chapter 7. Working with Remote Data
Although an AIR application is meant to run on the desktop and there are a variety of ways to store local data, there will certainly be times when it's beneficial to work with remote data sources. Whether the data are being supplied through middleware like ColdFusion, restful data services like XML or JSON, or through web services, AIR makes it easy to connect and retrieve data. This Chapter will demonstrate how to work with remote data using AMF via the Flex RPC (Remote Procedure Call) services, XML and JSON via Flex HTTPServices, and SOAP via Flex WebServices.
