Do you have the Flex adapter from IBI?

If not, you can contact your local office about licensing.

Have you considered doing a URL call to WebFOCUS?

Hi Swarna,

A good start will be the WebFOCUS Enable for Adobe Flex User's Guide, Version 1.0.0 DN4500898.1108

Many thanks for Ginny's input as well. Smiler

Cheers,

Kerry

Hai all

I recently started using Webfocus enable for flex.
I am following the user guide and I am struck at data binding using ibidatagrid. I am setting URL of WebFOCUS procedure which is on localhost but data is not being displayed. This is the URL and procedure is in baseapp folder. fex name is flex_enable and output is in XML format.

http://localhost:8081/ibi_apps...?IBIF_ex=flex_enable

Any clues.

Thanks a lot

Forgot the code tags:

probably would be better to open a new thread as this is a separate question (that shows solved) but here's how I do it (my procedures exist inside of MRE):

A couple of functions to set up the URL string:

		// Public Variables
		public var fex:String;
		public var fex1:String = "http://servername/ibi_apps/WFServletIBIMR_action=MR_RUN_FEX&IBIMR_sub_action=MR_STD_REPORT&IBIMR_drill=RUNNID&IBIWF_action=WF_SIGNON&IBIC_user=userid&IBIC_pass=userpass";
		public var fex2:String = "&IBIMR_domain=domain/domain.htm&IBIMR_fex=app/fexname.fex&IBIF_ex=app/fexname.fex&IBIMR_flags=&IBIMR_folder=#dashboardque&IBIMR_random=";

//	Get data for policy
		public function getFex():String {
			var fex0:String = fex1 + fex2;
			return fex0;
			}

Then on the ibidatagrid:

		<ibi:ibiDataGrid x="0" y="36" id="mainGrid" seturl="{getFex[)}" 
			visible="false" ibiAddRandom="true" left="10" width="1216" height="600" ibiUseFiltered="true" ibiCopyData="true"/>
