RE: Solution - NOAA Weather Forcast via CFMX Web Service

[Ian Skinner]

I had the same problem.  There are some hints that this might be a version 
problem.  But unfortunately legal documents prevent this from being discussed 
more.  That and I have not had a chance to play with it yet.  But I really 
really really want to.

...I downloaded your CFC and copied the sample code from your web site.
...
...When I run the page, I get the following error:
...
...Could not perform web service invocation "NDFDgenByDay" because
...java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: argument type mismatch
...
...The error appears to be related to the "format" argument.  At least,
...that is what CF has highlighted.

...CF'ers,
...
...I figured out the problem that everybody was talking about in a previous
...thread from earlier in the month. This email describes how to make it
...work.
...
...The problem that (I think) everybody was having is that they forgot that
...web services are strongly typed but ColdFusion is not. That means you
...can't pass a string into an array of bits. You can use my simple CFC
...interface to all of this at
...(http://www.jonathanblock.com/pineapple/noaa.html) or you can do it
...yourself like I have in the example below...
