Dear Henry,

Long time no see!! Neat, I didn't know you worked there, I take it things are in good hands then!

Thanks for the excellent information, now I understand perfectly.

Sincerely,

Matt in Tokyo

As of SWF version 6, the Flash player added a  native XML parser that is fast, so we stopped compiling XML on the server, and just pass XML in text form directly to the client. So that binary format is no longer relevant for XML data requests. We still use swf byte code format for the XML-RPC format, because there is no JSON parser available in the flash player, but we pass JSON expressions  in OL4 for the DHTML runtime. 

The details of the binary format are  subject to change without notice, and it did not seem worth documenting for external users for this reason. In fact I am in the process of changing the data encoder for SWF XMLRPC to use JSON expressions, compiled via the LPS script compiler, instead of the hand-coded data compiler which is in there now. This will be transparent to end users however.
