As best as I can tell, the options for communication between Flex and Java using BlazeDS are as follows:
Use RemoteObject in Flex to send a message (RPC) from Flex to Java, and get a reply via an asynchronous callback. On the Java side this constructs a new object for each such message.
Use Consumer in Flex to listen for inbound messages. These can come from other Flex clients (Producer) or from a Java server (using AsyncMessage and MessageBroker).
Use Producer in Flex to send messages to other Flex clients.
Did I miss any options?
Am I correct that Producer cannot be used to send a message to Java? If this is not correct, a link to an example of the Java code required would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
