CFUnited Prize Draw code

I was asked yesterday if i could make this available, so here it is

CFUnited Prize Draw Code

The CFC is just this (table only contains firstname / lastname)

<cfcomponent>

<cffunction name="selectWinners" access="remote">

<cfquery name="winners" datasource="myDS">

select * from cfunited

</cfquery>

<cfreturn winners>

</cffunction>

</cfcomponent>

Demo's from CFUnited

The first archive can be found here

This is the Flex messaging app (with CF input) along with the mxml/as in a CFM page plus the CRM LCDS app (gateway screenshots included)

The next archive is the AIR producer and consumer that works with the messaging code above.

This is a Flex Builder archive, so just open up FB3 and import

The last (for now) archive is the chat rooms demo. Remember to edit your {cf_webroot}/WEB-INF/flex/messaging-config.xml file and add the following to the section of the ColdFusion Messaging Gateway

<server>

<allow-subtopics>true</allow-subtopics>

<subtopic-separator>.</subtopic-separator>

</server>

As a side note here, if anyone would like the prize draw picker, just let me know and i'll publish that as well
