Creating a Flashbuilder App

[DHMerritt]

I am in the process of creating a Flashbuilder application that will log onto Adobe Connect 8 and draw a whole lot of info off of the server.

I am able to log onto Adobe Connect from my application.

Now I would like to have some text that says "Welcome Dimitri Merritt" (obviously whatever the users name is). If I have read the documentation correctly I should be able to us x-user-id. I have tried this but without luck. Can somebody please help me out?

ps I am not sure if I am supposed to post this request here or in the Flex forum. When I read the intro "letter" to this forum I was convinced that I should post the request in the Flex forum. I then read in the Flex forum a big announcement that the Flashbuilder forum is now open and if you are using Flashbuilder one must come here i.e. I hope this does not offend anybody if I am mistaken.

Ok I figured this one out with help form Kapil (thanks Kapil).

Here are a few lines of code that is needed:

<s:HTTPService id="myPersonalInfo" fault="faultHandler(event) resultFormat="e4x" result"personalInfo(event)"/>

Then create a function e.g.

private function requestPersonalInfo():void{

domainUrl="your url.com";

personalInfoRequest="";

personalInfoRequest=domainUrl+api_xml_string;

personalInfoRequest+="common-info";

myPersonalInfo.url=personalInfoRequest;

myPersonalInfo.send();

}

private funtion personalInfo(event:ResultEvent):void{

personalName=event.result.common.user.name;

Username.text="Welcome" + personalName;

}

Thats it.
