Hi,

I’m migrating an app from AS2 to AS3, which has fairly substantial use of webservices using the as2 Webservice classes.

Is there an AS3 equivalent for these classes? I read on one forum that there is nothing provided for webservices in AS3, and you’d have to serialize/deserialize the soap packets manually yourself - surely this can’t be the case?!

thanks  
Marcus.
