indicates that you called 'update'.
Second, web service calls are always static. When the call is made, a
new instance of the CFC is instantiated, the method is invoked, and
then the instance goes to garbage collection. If you need to maintain
state across multiple method calls, then you have to use a facade CFC.
The web services client invokes a method on the facade CFC which, in
turn, invokes methods on a stateful component, usually in the session
or application scope. It sounds like what you've got right now is the
stateful component, exactly as it needs to be, except that you can
switch the access from 'remote' to 'public'.
For example, you need to call init, a couple setters, and then create
on your CFC. What you need to do is, make a new facade CFC skeleton
that has the same method names as your current CFC, all with
access="remote". In the facade's 'init' method, instantate your
stateful CFC into the session scope and call 'init' on it. In the
facade's other methods, just invoke the corresponding method on the
session-scoped CFC instance.
Let me know if that makes sense, or if you've got any other questions.
