Ya... I was experimenting with an AIR app a while back and it connected to a Coldfusion CFC. The session was created when the AIR app hit the CFC and the session expired at the predetermined time.
You might have to build a cfc for the distributors web service calls to create your session objects, but once created then the future webservice calls will be able to access the session objects. Like Brad said... IF it can accept a cookie. Setup a test application.cfm and cfc with session stuff in it and with access=remote on the functions and have them hit the CFC WSDL and see what happens. http://demo.dev/login.cfc?WSDL -----Original Message----- From: Brad Wood [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, July 18, 2007 12:04 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: preserving session for web services As long as your distributors program can accept cookies, then you can use session management just like you would with a browser. ~Brad -----Original Message----- From: Larry Lyons [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, July 18, 2007 10:23 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: preserving session for web services Greetings, I have a question for the list. A distributor wants to connect to our ecommerce system, which is an OO setup using cfc's. Their site however is an asp.net site. What we are looking at is using web services to send the results back to the browser on the distributor's site. However our ecommerce system uses session variables to hold various objects, like a user object, a shopping cart object etc. This obviously may be a problem. So how do we maintain session between the different web service calls to our site? Any help or suggestions on this is most appreciated. thx, larry ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| ColdFusion MX7 by Adobe® Dyncamically transform webcontent into Adobe PDF with new ColdFusion MX7.
