I'm working on a flash game written in pure actionscript 3.0 in Flex.
I've just finished implementing replays for the game, but want to store the top 10 hiscores' replay data on my google-app-engine'd website.
I'm using Java for the app-engine stuff in Eclipse in java but I have no idea how to deal with communicating to my java code from my actionscript code.
I'll need to both read and write from actionscript -> java -> datastore. Does anyone have any experience with this?
For note, I'm horribly noob with anything to do with web development. I hear you can pass arguments to a URL when calling it, comparable to command-line arguments on a desktop executable and if so then sending all the data as a large string would be doable...
The question then would be how to call a url from AS3 code with additional data and then how to catch that on the java side.
Thanks to anyone who can help.
