Flex : Is it possible to stop a remote call?

Question

I search for a long time, but I still not found the answer.

In common case, we keep the token of a remote method call, Flex -> Java for example. But, if the client know that the current call is not needed anymore, how stopping the server processing ?

With an asyncToken, is it possible to stop a remote call ?

Thanks for your answer.

Answer 1

As I understood it, an AsyncToken just provides extra data for some operation. You'll need to access that operation to cancel.

IF you're calling an HTTPService, you use the cancel() method.

If you're using a WebService, you should be able to call getOperation() method and then cancel() the corresponding operation.

If you're using a RemoteObject you should be able to call getOperation() method and then cancel() on the corresponding operation.
