RE: Webservice returning CFC in a different directory

[Alistair Davidson]

Hi Mike,

Yes, I have a mapping set up to mycomponents.

I can create an instance of the CFC in the web service method, no
problem. If I do:

<cfcomponent displayname="Person Web Service Component">

                        

            <cffunction name="viewPerson" returntype="string"
access="remote">

                        <cfargument name="intItemID" type="numeric"
required="true" />

                        <cfscript>

                                    objPerson = CreateObject(
"component", "mycomponents/person" );

                                    objPerson.init();

                                    

                                    objPerson =
objPerson.viewPersonByID( arguments.intItemID );

                                    

                                    //return objPerson;

                        </cfscript>

                        <cfreturn "personid #arguments.intItemID#" />

            </cffunction>

</cfcomponent>

Then it works fine, no errors, and returns the string.

But if I uncomment the return objPerson line and change the returntype
to mycomponents.person, or mycomponents/person, or /mycomponents/person,
or anything similar, I get the the "UnresolvedCFCDatatype" exception.

---------------------------------

Do you have a CF Mapping setup pointing to mycomponents/ ?

Then you can access the component in the ws by calling something like

var oFoo = CreateObject("Component", "mycompents.mycfc");

HTH

Mike
