Has anyone gotten Adobe Flex and erlang to connect to each other? A number of people talk about this on various blogs, but I haven't seen a working solution yet.
Flex and erlang would form a real best-of-breed combination.
Thanks.

I don't know the answer, it is probably going to be rolling your own AMF transport or using http/rest type API's, but this blog post from Ted Patrick may give you a place to start:

I saw Ted's blog. He makes the case for Flex-erlang connectivity, but just lets you hanging with no answers.

Yeah, but some of the comments might give you some clues. Also did you try to ping Ted directly? He is generally fairly responsive.

I haven't but I have thought about a few potential options:
- AMF - ErlAMF - http://code.google.com/p/erlamf/
- JSON - as3corelib has JSON http://code.google.com/p/as3corelib/

Flex front-end and RESTful back-end works well - with a socket to run your remoting.
The socket example can be found here.

I have posted my erlang-http server with flex remoting module and examples on github.
git clone git://github.com/mujaheed/erlang-http.git
cd erlang-http
git submodule init
git submodule update
make
cd examples/stock
make run
Then point your browser to http://localhost:8080
