Uma coisas mais excepcionais que o design do framework do Adobe Flex traz, é a facilidade de trabalhar com os serviços de mensageria. Toda a complexidade que existe nas soluções de mensageria como a do JMS do Java, no Flex, basicamente foi resumido ao <mx:Producer/> e <mx:Consumer/> (ver a documentação).
Assim como os outros meios de comunicação do Flex ( HttpService, WebService, RemoteObject ) o Consumer e Producer precisam de uma funcionalidade no back-end, em específico o DataService que está usando. Como por exemplo, no Java o DataService mais comum que contém essa funcionalidade é o Live Cycle Data Services e o BlazeDS, este OpenSource. No PHP, tem o WebOrb for PHP.
Como o título deste tópico informa, para provar que é muito simples trabalhar com mensageria no Flex, vamos criar um chat com nem 20 linhas (um total de linhas programadas e não de configuração) no Flex. Para tal façanha, primeiro escolha qual linguagem e DataService que irá utilizar no back-end. Eu estarei utilizando Java + BlazeDS.
Partindo do princípio que o BlazeDS já está integrado ao Java e com as configurações básicas:
- O primeiro passo é criar um canal de comunicação para trafegar as mensagens. Para isso, no arquivo services-config.xml do BlazeDS, adicione o seguinte canal:
[xml]
[/xml]
Esse é um canal de Streaming, e só irá funcionar se for executado em Http 1.1. Outra forma de utilizar os serviços de menssageria, é criar um canal AMF normal (AMFChannel) e ativar o polling, como no exemplo abaixo:
[xml]
true
[/xml]
- Criado o canal, vamos criar o destination na qual irá utilizar o canal. Para isso, crie se não existir um arquivo no mesmo diretório do services-config.xml com o nome de messaging-config.xml, nele coloque o seguinte conteúdo:
- Adicionado o destination (chatMessage), a configuração já está completa. Vamos agora criar a Interface do Chat junto com o Producer e Consumer (menos de 20 linhas):
[xml]
[/xml]
[xml]
[/xml]
Com o messaging-config.xml criado, é preciso informar ao services-config.xml que existem destinations de mensageria. Para isso adicione as linhas abaixo no services-config.xml:
[xml]
…
…
[/xml]
Pronto! agora basta startar seu Container Web (no meu caso o TomCat) e abrir 2 browsers distintos e enviar as menssagens.
Atenção com o Firefox, pois ele armazena a mesma session para abas diferentes, e por default, o BlazeDS suporta uma conexão por cliente.
Para todo e qualquer erro, verifique sempre o console do Tomcat, ele sempre traz informações úteis para identificar os erros.

I must say, as considerably as I enjoyed reading what you had to say, I couldnt help but lose interest after a while. Its as if you had a excellent grasp to the topic matter, but you forgot to include your readers. Perhaps you should think about this from far more than one angle. Or maybe you shouldnt generalise so much. Its better if you think about what others may have to say instead of just going for a gut reaction to the topic. Think about adjusting your own thought process and giving others who may read this the benefit of the doubt.
