PureMVC / complicated asMock - apache-flex

Question

Ok - I've got a bit of a complicated asMock setup here; I've got a PureMVC async command that is attempting to call another class that implements interfaces in order to set up some asmocks for development without the backend.
import test.mix.common.business.MockInterbahnServiceFactory;
public class InitMockInterbahnServiceFactory extends AsyncCommand{
public static var mockServiceFactory:MockInterbahnServiceFactory = new MockInterbahnServiceFactory();
override public function execute(notification:INotification):void{
var serviceResult:IEventDispatcher = mockServiceFactory.mockRepository.prepare([EchoBusinessObjects, SendBusinessObjects]);
//serviceResult.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onComplete);
}
private function onComplete(event:Event):void{
mx.controls.Alert.show("COMPLETE!");
var logMessage:String = "4 MOCK SERVICE FACTORY MOCKED !!!!!";
sendNotification( MixConstants.LOG_OUTPUT, logMessage );
//sendNotification(MixConstants.INTERBAHN_CONNECTED, mockServiceFactory);
// commandComplete() ;
}
}
This is actually trying to set up a MockRepositoryFactory:
public class MockInterbahnServiceFactory implements ServiceFactory
{
[Mock] public static var withMocks : Array = [
SendBusinessObjects, EchoBusinessObjects
];
//public static var mockRepository:MockRepository ;//= new MockRepository();
public var mockSendBusinessObjects:SendBusinessObjects;
public var mockEchoBusinessObjects:EchoBusinessObjects ;
public var mockRepository:MockRepository;
public function MockInterbahnServiceFactory(){
mockRepository = new MockRepository();
prepareMocks();
}
public function prepareMocks():void{
var prepareDispatcher:IEventDispatcher = mockRepository.prepare([SendBusinessObjects, EchoBusinessObjects]);
prepareDispatcher.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, setupMocks);
}
public function setupMocks(event:Event):void{
mockSendBusinessObjects = SendBusinessObjects(mockRepository.create(SendBusinessObjects));
mockEchoBusinessObjects = EchoBusinessObjects(mockRepository.create(EchoBusinessObjects));
SetupResult.forCall(mockSendBusinessObjects.sendOrder(new Order())).returnValue('wee');
}
public function createSendBusinessObjectService():SendBusinessObjects{
return mockSendBusinessObjects;
}
public function createEchoBusinessObjectService():EchoBusinessObjects{
return mockEchoBusinessObjects;
}
}
}
And at some point this factory is going to get passed around and utilized for the send / receive endpoints for multiple communications (true backend being a scala one).
I'm getting this error:
ArgumentError: returnValue must be assignable from :void

I'm assuming this is because of the interface functions I'm stubbing?
public interface SendBusinessObjects {
function sendFirmExchangePermission(frp:FirmExchangePermission):void ;
function sendFirm(f:Firm):void ;
function sendExchange(ex:Exchange):void ;
function sendFXConversion(fx:FXConversion):void ;
function sendInstrument(ins:Instrument):void ;
function sendQuote(q:Quote):void ;

It looks to me like SendBusinessObjects returns void, but you are calling returnValue when you are mocking the call to it. Remove the returnValue('wee') call and it should work as expected.
