VRaptor 3 Flex-plugin

This is a plugin to call a VRaptor Controller from a flash RemoteObject via AMF

Configuring in your flex project

First of all configure the VRaptor classpath package scan adding the vraptor-pluging-flex to it in your web.xml as follows:

<context-param>
  <param-name>br.com.caelum.vraptor.packages</param-name>
  <param-value>br.com.caelum.vraptor.flex</param-value>
</context-param>

In fact this plugin is a factory to your AMF (de)serializer, all you need is register it.

BlazeDS

In your service-config.xml add the VRaptor factory:

<!-- VRaptor factory registration -->
<factories>
  <factory id="vraptor" class="br.com.caelum.vraptor.flex.blazeds.VRaptorServiceFactory" />
</factories>

Then, to register a new destination, use the full qualified name of your controller and the VRaptor Factory, like this:

<destination id="myVRaptorController">
  <properties>
    <factory>vraptor</factory>
    <source>br.com.caelum.vraptor.example.MyController</source>
  </properties>
</destination>

GraniteDS

In your service-config.xml add the VRaptor factory:

<!-- VRaptor factory registration -->
<factories>
  <factory id="vraptorFactory" class="br.com.caelum.vraptor.flex.graniteds.VraptorServiceFactory" />
</factories>

Then, to register a new destination, use the full qualified name of your controller and the VRaptor Factory, like this:

<services>
  <service
      id="granite-service"
      class="flex.messaging.services.RemotingService"
      messageTypes="flex.messaging.messages.RemotingMessage">
    <destination id="test">
      <channels>
        <channel ref="my-graniteamf"/>
      </channels>
      <properties>
        <factory>vraptorFactory</factory>
        <source>br.com.caelum.testeGranite.controller.HelloController</source>
      </properties>
    </destination>
  </service>
</services>
