It turns out that Flex 3.4 may not have been ready for the spotlight. Sure, I’m as eager as anyone to get a hold on it, especially since I had a part in its creation. However, there’s a horrible bug in the HTTPService world.
If you add a responder to a token created by the send() method, you’ll end up with two calls to the responder for every return by the server. The workaround is use event listeners rather than responders, but a lot of people (myself included) aren’t interested in rewriting legacy code to work around something that worked in a prior version.
Wow, came across this and thought I had a dispatched event doubling up a call… After about 20 minutes I figured it wasn’t my problem
What an OMG – WTF moment
