I was not remembering correctly. I only use the VO for AMF. The XML is just a plain Object. Sorry. I was not remembering correctly. I only use the VO for AMF. The XML is just a plain Object.

When you say "...go from all of the XML being loaded on the client to all of the data in VOs" by VOs you just mean untyped objecst and not CensusEntryVO right ? From what I can see, in the XML AS test you just "SimpleXMLDecoder.decode() " the xml. Sorry for bothering you, I just want to be sure I understand and analyze correctly the results of the Census tests. Ok thank you for the quick answer.

When retrieving XML, is there any kind of cast to VO occuring when you get the result ? (so you would have to parse the result). I didn't find the source code of the datagrid populating process since it's hold by an external swf. Thx, G Hi James,

I have an air app which runs fine on android to connect devices using wifi, however as there is no bluetooth support I have been playing about with an android bluetoothchat demo and have this connecting to my server app now using bluetooth. I would somehow like to use the ui of adobe air app with the socket communication of the native android app/code. Is this possible and if yes is it worth me going down that path rather than try to totally recreate everything to do with ui and events in native android code? Really appreciate any input you can give. Brendan Hi James, I have come across your post about integrating adobe air script within a native android app, this gives me great hope.

Are there any reference sites that explain the limitations of developing Flex apps for either the iOS or Android? Such as what components are not supported or should be called from AS rather than be layed out with MXML due to performance issues ..etc Thanks James ..

I guess there are two ways to do it: 1) using the flexforforce API i.e. using Flex for Force.com project using flash builder and 2) using force.com toolkit for Adobe Air and flex. With the first approach i was able to achieve the offline capability but many times the sync hasn't been happening properly bcoz of the property lastModifiedDate ( fault code: ENTITY_FAILED_IFLASTMODIFIED_ON_UPDATE ). I guess the value of lastModifiedDate of localSQlLite DB is different from the server one's due to which sync has failed. With the second approach i have been using flexforforce.swc ( the latest build ) and i have been facing problem when i go offline i.e. my application throws as error....... ArgumentError: Error #2004: One of the parameters is invalid at flash.utils::ByteArray/writeObject()......... how do i overcome this issue in the newwer version? Can i get the old version (as3Salesforce.swc, as3SalesforceAir.swc) of toolkit where offline sync works properly ?? How do i overcome these issues, please can you provide with your inputs with right kind of approach to attain the offline capabilities to my application. Thanks in Advance :-) KK. Hi James,
