All of my cfc's have an init() method. Those for data access take an
argument for the dsn and place it in the VARIABLES scope.
If you aren't intending to initialize your object, I guess you could
have code, in each method, to check for hidden arguments?
<cfif IsDefined("ARGUMENTS.dsn")>
<cfset VARIABLES.dsn = ARGUMENTS.dsn />
</cfif>
Not sure that it would be wise within an Ajax bind though, as you'd be
passing the dsn to the method via an open http call. Probably a better
option to use Coldspring or ColdBox to autowire those dependencies.
Haven't really tested it yet.
