Excellent Post please upload the source code of this.Eagerly waiting for that………..
@prasanth You can get most of the Java source code by downloading BlazeDS. The Census code is in the samples. Then just add the JSR-181 annotations if you are doing SOAP.
Really helpful post James.
We are starting to look at RIA options on top of Java/Mule ESB and would love to see more demos/screen casts about building Flex apps with Java/SOA back-ends. Is it at all possible to build a Flex/Air plug-in for an existing RCP app? Kind of a transition from RCP to RIA so to speak for a small piece of functionality?
Hi TimG,
I’ll work on a Mule screencast. That’s a good idea.
I’ve seen some really interesting stuff from the Merapi project that runs Flex apps inside of Swing, so running in RCP should also be possible.

Hi, Do I need flex4 builder for this tutorial? I heard from this tutorial saying you installed “FLASH” 4 Builder plugin. I am kind of confused the tool requirements to do this tutorial?
@Jack Flash Builder 4 is the new name for Flex Builder. It is the Eclipse-based tool for doing Flex development.
Thank you for your explanation James. Can you also tell me which version of BlazeDs can work with Flex4? I saw BlazeDs 4 at adobe.com.
@Jack You can grab a daily build of BlazeDS 4 from opensource.adobe.com
