I never noticed any issues with type checking when using dynamic paths to my cfcs. using the below gives me no issues I sometimes set an application scoped var application.rootdir and use something like <cfset toolsobj = CreateObject("Component","#Replace(application.AppRoot,"/",".")#.pathtocfcs. inmy.app") /> I usually don't store my cfcs in a mapped CFC directory as this causes me pain keeping track of them in CVS.
