AMFPHP and multiple PHP functions

By NRaf | Jul 3, 2009

Hey,

I’m creating a Flash site and need access to MySQL content. I’m using AMFPHP and have been fine until now.

What I need is a way to get a responder (flash.net.Responder) depending on the PHP function (or more accurately method) I’m calling.

The code is as follows:

ActionScript Code:


public function getMainCollections():void
        {
            connection.call(“#####.getMainCollections”, responder);
        }
       
        public function getSubCollections(subID:int):void
        {
            connection.call(“#####.getSubCollections”, responder, subID);
        }
       
        //Handle the result of the SQL function
        override protected function onResult(result:Object):void
        {
            this.result = result;
                       
            dispatchEvent(new ServerEvent(ServerEvent.RESULT_RECEIVED));
        }

As you can tell, the responder object calls the onResult method after receiving a result from the server. This dispatches a new event (from my custom event class ServerEvent).

This event will be called regarding of which PHP method was called #####.getMainCollections() or #####.getSubCollections(). Therefore any code that listens for the ServerEvent.RESULT_RECEIVED event won’t be able to differentiate which PHP method was called and will act the same way in either instance.

To cut a long story short, is there any way to act differently depending on which PHP method was called using the same responder object?
