I have been collecting DVD movies for years now, and on some occasions, I have forgotten that I already owned a movie. More times than I hate to admit, I have ended up with two copies. This past weekend, I created a Flex 2 application with a ColdFusion, CFC-based backend that now allows me to store a DVD inventory in a mySQL database. This Flex 2 app displays the inventory in a DataGrid with an itemRenderer that displays the DVD cover art, and it utilizes an Amazon Webservice to dynamically locate the URL of a medium-sized image of the cover. I used the Flex Builder 2's ColdFusion CFC Value Object Wizard to quickly create the server-side components and, bam, got er done.
