Adobe Flex Amazon Web Service Using Caringorm

[IMPORTANT AS OF AUGUST 1 2009 AMAZON CHANGED THE AUTHENTICATION PROCEDURES SO THIS EXAMPLE NO LONGER WORKS]

I am researching the Amazon Web Services API for use in Flex 3.

I reviewed the work of Jesse Warden at jessewarden.com and, I believe since the post is not signed, Charlie Key at paranoidferret.com.

Both were good starters. However they did not meet my needs exactly. But together they worked out to let me build an example in my own style.

My finished work can be found at Adobe Flex Amazon Web Services Music ItemSearch Using Cairngorm.

The example does a simple keyword search on Music using the Amazon ItemSearch API.

For the ancestors to this example see:
