AMFPHP Design Question - Database Query Tool

programming flash
1

Hello All,

just for fun I have been messing around with AMFPHP and I have hit a design problem and I was just wondering if anyone had any input?

I have been using AMFPHP to make calls to a PHP script like so: -


public function dbconnect(host:String,user:String,pass:String):void {
            trace("Sending Data to AMFPHP");
            // Send the data to the remote server. 
            responder = new Responder(dbResult, onFault);
     
            connection.call("dbtest.dbconnect",responder,host,user,pass);
        }

This calls the method “dbconnect” in my PHP script and returns data in a responder method: -


    private function dbResult(result:Object):void {
              returndata = String(result);
              trace(returndata);
            
        }

Anyhow I was looking into making and Database Query Tool so I am going to be making calls to the database via the PHP script depending on what the user selects on the Flash stage.

I was just wondering if its better to use one Responder method to return every call and have that triggered by a custom event or something?

Or use a Responder for every different call to the PHP script?

Any thoughts on a better design?

Thanks in advance :slight_smile:
