AMF<->PHP and whats new?
June 25th, 2008
I have been working with a couple well know technology companies on an open source project to bring two languages I love closer together. It will be very cool
Flex3 and PHP will soon be better friends than ever!
With that said; Yes I am busy! For now that is really all I can say about what I am doing. This post is to let everyone know that the AMFPHP project is alive and well!
Also we finally have a cover to the Essential Guide to Open Source Flash which features and artical on AMFPHP. Very cool!
Can anyone figure out why sourceforge hates the username wadearnold? Let me back in! I can’t answer questions without access.


Ohh yea we also had a flood!

Dear Wade Arnold,
I have been testing on your amfphp and it is really fast and lean. I am currently developing a simple flash game which ppl move in the map with x and y. Since it is multiplayer, i need to update every client with every player’s position in the same zone. My current plan is to post current player’s x and y into mysql table and get the query on every other else’s x and y position based on last timestamp and update the objects in the client display. I know that this is quite wasting the database server resource and my web hoster does not allow me to do php socket programming… Will you advice me a database server resourceless way to broadcast players’ position to all client, or database server -less broadcast way or if the only way is socket programming, how do I use it in the amfphp? Glad that you have told us how to get the session id from within amfphp. Have a nice day ^^
Thanks in advance.
