UPDATE: I’ve decided not to continue this tutorial at the moment as I’m really digging the lightweight, simple elegance, and less complicated Swiz framework. I will finish the path of this original tutorial and dig into BlazeDS + Spring + etc, but with the obvious replacement of Swiz over SAS + CG. Sorry for the confusion and delay.
I’m going to release Part 5 of the series shortly, although it’s taking a slight deviation from what I had planned originally…
The Spring AS (”SAS”) framework has been changing quite a bit and they’ve released new versions and new docs for both the framework itself and the Cairngorm (”CG”) extensions, so I’d like to revisit my SAS + CG implementation leveraging their approach.
I’ve also added in a login screen to set up the use of Spring Security with role based permissions on the Java side — it also allows me to illustrate the use of multiple Cairngorm Events + Command + Delegate paths with both hardcoded AS and XML Delegates.
The actual code is done, now I just have to write about it…I’m about 3/4 of the way through the actual post explaining the code, but it’s Friday and I need a beer so here’s the code to tide those waiting on it over. Again, the full blog post with details explaining the ins and outs to come some time next wk.

It’s about 80% done, but I’ve been slammed with projects so I’m a little behind when I had originally wanted it done.
I’m on vacation all next wk, so I’ll try my best to punch it out. Thanks for waiting and being patient.

well, cairngorm 2.2 is pretty much dead and I use Swiz, Parsley, or RobotLegs. I have a number of posts showing how to use Swiz:

I might suggest starting with the first one and going from there:

It needs to be updated yet again to use our latest and greatest AbstractViewMediator, but it will at least get the ball rolling for ya.
