how would I change/specify the endpoint URL at runtime in a Flex App which communicates with PHP? I always used a services-config.xml so far.
I tried to overwrite the endpoint in the mxml Remote Object, with no success.
I also tried to add a new channel set to the Remote Object, but then I needed to define a destination somehow.
Help much appreciated.

I was struggling with the same issue and here's what emerged from my struggle ;)
public static function getRemoteObject(destination:String, channelName:String,
showBusyCursor:Boolean=true):RemoteObject{
var remoteService:RemoteObject=new RemoteObject(destination);
var channelSet:ChannelSet=new ChannelSet();
var amf:AMFChannel=new AMFChannel(channelName,
"http://{server.name}:{server.port}" +
(Application.application as Application).parameters.contextRoot +
"/graniteamf/amf");
channelSet.addChannel(amf);
remoteService.channelSet=channelSet;
remoteService.showBusyCursor=showBusyCursor;
return remoteService;
}
So as you can see, I basically do just the things you said you've tried, with my endpoint being partially provided in flashVars at application startup.
I just came across this post because i'm looking for a way that does not use this services-config.xml file. Wich for deployement purpose can be a real problem and I came across this post : http://gertonscorner.wordpress.com/2008/09/06/remoteobject-using-amfphp-and-actionscript-3/
Just to help those who googled their way here ;)
This is the only way I could get it to work, in the generated stub for your service:
import com.adobe.fiber.core.model_internal;
Also:
/**
* Override super.init() to provide any initialization customization if needed.
*/
protected override function preInitializeService():void
{
_needWSDLLoad = false; // to prevent loading the default WSDL
super.preInitializeService();
// Initialization customization goes here
wsdl = "http://localhost/yourservice?wsdl";
_needWSDLLoad = true;
model_internal::loadWSDLIfNecessary();
as simple as amfphp style :
gateway = new NetConnection();
gateway.connect("http://localhost/ZServer/");
gateway.call("MyService.getData", new Responder(getLoan, onFault));
public function getLoan(result:Array):void {
dpDataRaw = new ArrayCollection(result);
}
