• Flex way of deploying DSC on LiveCycle

  Problem

  In order to deploy the DSC the most easy way is to have a Workbench installed. But there are also ways to deploy a DSC without having WorkBench by our side. In Java, we do so by the help of LC SDK jars, namely adobe-livecycle.jar and adobe-usermanagement-client.jar. Now, what if we want to deploy a DSC from a FLEX UI on a Livecycle Server, running somewhere remote, let say by the click of a button on an AIR App. But in Flex we can't use SDK jars, hence the creation of ServiceClientFacory is impossible.

  Solution

  Flex exposes remoting endpoint which can be used to communicate with LiveCycle via LCDS. The adobe-remoting-provider.swc whihc is used to facilitate the communication, can be found at the LiveCycle installed location, \\Adobe LiveCycle ES2\LiveCycle_ES_SDK\misc\DataServices\Client-Libraries.
