Hello everyone just wanted to say hi. I have been an active member with
flash coders for a while and I am now starting to take the leap into
Flash Remoting. I have good general experience with Coldfusion dev and
action scripting. Anyway I just wanted to say hi and I hope to learn a
lot from you guys and hopefully give back sooner or later.=20

I was also hoping you all could send me some good resources for me to
get started in Remoting. Things like blogs, tutorials and maybe even
some good book ideas to get this ball moving. Thanks for your time!

Hey Corban, it's great to see you on the list. I hate to burst your bubble
though, but this is a Flash Media Server (Flash Communication Server) list,
so you might not see much remoting going on here. Although there are some
pretty knowledgable people on the subject, so if you happen to toss out a
question directly related to remoting, it's a decent chance you'll get an
answer.

Hey Corbin,

I've done a fair amount of dev with remoting and FCS. (i.e. Macromedia's Ric
h Internet Application (RIA) concept) So here are a few of my favorite books
and some of my thoughts/observations on the whole subject.

The whole RIA thing is HUGE and there is no telling how far it can go. I am 
especially intrigued with using FCS as the flucrum or center point for contr
olling
remoting applications and all of their attendant issues such as authenticati
on, distributed process communication and scheduling. I think there some ver
y
powerful possiblities that we have not begun to explore. I've worked for yea
rs in the distributed application business and I think that distributed/work
group
types of applications are only just beginning to find their way to the web. 
PHP, Flash, FCS and Remoting are a perfect vehicle for these projects.

Here are some books I've really put the highlighting pen to work on (if you 
get my drift)

Overview of this whole RIA thing: 'Macromedia Flash MX2004 For Rich Internet
 Applications' by Phillip Kerman (New Riders Publishing). This book is just
and overview, but it is accurate and has good examples in it. It does cover 
the spectrum of technology pretty well.

Flash Remoting 'The Definitive Guide' by Tom Muck (O'Reilly Books) is an exc
ellent source on the HUGE world of remoting. All of the remoting server
concepts are covered in this book with some nice insight on the possibilites
 of using JRun4 as a J2EE server. I've done some work with JRun4 and Java
and it works very well, especially when you understand how to call Java clas
ses from Server Side ActionScript via JRun4. This book also covers my
favorite Remoting server AMFPHP. php is very powerful (far exceeding Coldfus
ions abilities) and when coupled with FLash Remoting, a whole world of
possibilities opens up.

Hands down, the best FCS book is 'Programming Flash Communication Server' by
 Brian Lesser, Giacomo Guilizzoni, Joey Lott, Robert Reinhardt and Justin
Watkins. (O'Reilly books)

Be sure and download and READ all of Macromedias docs on these subjects. Mac
romedias docs make a LOT more sense as a companion to the above
books than just standalone docs.

Hope this gets the ball rolling for you.

Good Luck,

James Voss

Thanks James, that was some good help... I think I am going to stick
around and listen in for a while I am sure there will be some good
knowledge being passed around here also.

If you are into AMFPhp there are some good tutorials on setting it up (bo=
