[osflash] [REMOTING] When to return the db resource id?

[Julian Sander]

Hi Marcelo,

what I do is put a getDB method on the server which either creates a  
new DB connection (I use ADODB) or passes the current DB connection  
around to the different methods.  As far as I know you cannot pass a  
DB connection from AMFPHP to Flash and back as the php remoting class  
is instantiated on every new call.

cheers, Julian
