SWX RPC
SWX RPC is a remote procedure call protocol encoded in SWX format. You use it to call methods on server-side classes (called services in SWX RPC) and get the results returned to you in SWX format.
SWX RPC is open. I am in the process of writing an Internet Draft (I-D) for SWX RPC which I hope will become an informational RFC.
SWX RCP is stateless, lightweight, and uses HTTP as the transfer protocol.
A typical SWX RPC call involves parameters sent from Flash to the SWX RPC endpoint (gateway) in JSON format. These consist of serviceClass, method, and args parameters that define the method on the service class that you want to call on the back-end and the arguments that you want to send to that method. The resulting data is returned to Flash in the result property.
SWX PHP adheres to SWX’s core philosophy of Systemwide Simplicity.
