[cfaussie] Re: Flash Remoting and CFCs outside the webroot

Antony,   You could also create a mapping in cf administrator to point to your CFC's outside the web root.   Cheers     -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Stephen Bosworth Application Development and Integration Communication and Information Services The University of Newcastle, Australia Phone: 02 4921 6574 Fax: 02 4921 7087 Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 30/01/2004 2:49:56 pm >>> Thanks Mark - that's a really neat idea.   However, it sounds like too much work for me.  What I have done since posting is create a Virtual Directory in IIS6, point it at the custom tag directory, and use dot notation to call the cfc, and it appears to be working so far.  (I have turned off directory listing and read rights to that folder, so they are just about invisible if you don't know they are there, which was my intention.)   I can live with my workaround at the moment, but if it fails I'll give your idea a shot.   Thanks   Antony   --------------------------------------------------------------------- Antony Sideropoulos IT Solutions Developer Maddocks   t 9288 0662 f 9288 0666 m 0414 840 820 e [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 30/01/2004 2:45:11 pm >>> Antony - You would probably need to double check this - but I'm (kinda?) certain that you can't access components that are stored off the web root. That being said - it's fairly common practice to have a CFC that handles all your Flash Remoting calls, for greater seperation between layers. This CFC will grab the relevent data from the CFCs that is required and pass it off to the Remoting request. On a total theory bent (ya would have to test this out) have a RemotingCFCManager.cfc that's sole job is to return back instances of CFCs that are stored off the web root to the remoting request. Not sure how that would turn out tho.
