Hi All,
This kind of question has been asked before, but has not been well supported at StackOverlfow...maybe because some people think its elementary..but beginners like me have spent days on this but to no avail. Kindly help [I'm sure its going to be an ever occurring issue]
I'm trying to make a flex project and want to integrate Spring 3.0 with it and later Hibernate.
I was trying to follow James Ward's Refcard instructions - http://refcardz.dzone.com/refcardz/flex-4-and-spring-3 , Sadly, I got stuck at an initial point itself as some problem in deploying the project to JBoss (in refcardz it says Tomcat)..
I was trying to use the book 'Flex and Java integration Bible' [it uses JBoss], can somebody tell me if its the right way...or is there some other text ? please help as I have been stuck on this for 2 days now...I want to code and move ahead, not be stuck in configuration issues. I'll be most thankful.
UPDATE-MORE DETAILS :
I started off with using 'Flex and Java Integration Bible, as had no idea of how to integrate so many things (there is no text out there what so ever)'. When I reached the middle of the book, I was not able to do some steps as I guess the version of things changed. I searched and went towards James Ward example (again, not very detailed for a stupid beginner like Me). Using Refcardz, I am stuck at following -- While making the flex spring project, I see the error in console that cannot deploy to server (tried both JBoss and Tomcat). Error trace is as follows (I think some jar as mentioned in Refcardz is to do with it) :

Can somebody please give some step by step method to do so..or some existent text to get that intuition. I am a student and interning. Have not felt this helpless in years. I just can't make things happen. [I wonder am I the dumbest to have such a problem.]
