Server-Side ActionScript Language Reference
When you get a reference to a proxied shared object, any changes made to the object are sent
to the instance that owns the object. The success or failure of any changes are sent using the
SharedObject.onSync
event handler, if it is defined.
The
SharedObject.lock()
and
SharedObject.unlock()
methods cannot lock or unlock
proxied shared objects.
