Passing WSDL URLs I think is a horrible idea. The overhead alone of using a web service to proxy another web service on the same machine just doesn't make sense.
Dave Gruber suggest using the Flash gateway that comes standard with JRun (deployed in the "flashservices" context) for accessing Java objects via the Java* gateway adapters. Then use the Flash gateway that comes with CFMX/J2EE (deployed in whatever context we decided, by default "cfmx") to access CFCs/CFMs via the CF* gateway adapters. However, this configuration is not an acceptable solution for at least 2 reasons. First, we'd have to include our code base in the JVM classpath so that both CFMX/J2EE and the Jrun Flash gateway can access it. This undermines the classloader isolation that one gets by deploying in separate .war/.ear applications. A practice not suggested (or available to us) for production usage. Second, this is only a solution when using JRun4. No other J2EE appserver vendor will have another Flash gateway we can rely on. Moreover, using two different Flash gateways to access code in the same web application is silly. The Flash gateway that is part of CFMX/J2EE is (for our purposes) the same as the one that comes with JRun. The only reason we cannot use the CFMX/J2EE Flash gateway is because the code is written such that the gateway will only load adapters to support *either* CF-based objects or Java-based objects, but not both. The way it determines what adapters to load depends on what classes exist in the current classloader's classpath. Therefore, if the Flash gateway finds CFMX/J2EE classes, it won't load adapters to support remoting to Java-based objects.
