Quick Start: Invoking the Customer custom service using Remoting

The following code example invokes the Customer service and creates a new customer. When you run this code example, ensure that you fill out all text boxes. Also, ensure that you create the Customer.as file that maps to com.adobe.livecycle.sample.customer.Customer.

Remarque : Before you can execute this quick start, you have to create and deploy the Bank custom component. (See Creating Components That Use Custom Data Types.)
