Re: [CFCDev] Flash Remoting into the this.scope.....

[Sean A Corfield]

Flash Remoting is more like RMI - Remote Method Invocation - or RPC - Remote Procedure Call - in that you can only invoke methods, not access data members. That's because you don't really have a copy of the CFC in Flash - you have a proxy that contains references to methods.

I am just wondering if its actually possible to use a "factory" style approach with Flash Remoting.

eg:
factory.cfc
<cfcomponent>

��� this.blah = createObject("component","path.to.blah.controllerCFC");
</cfcomponent>

navigation.controller.cfc
<cfcomponent>
�����<cffunction name="getTopNav" access="remote">
������� <cfreturn true>
������</cffunction>
</cfcomponent>

Then In ActionScript (Client) I want to have:
�
gatewayPackage = gatewayConnection.getService('appname.factory', new Result());
gatewayPackage.navigation.getTopNav();�
Flash MX doesn't return an error, but it doesn't return data either. Is this feasible? or do I have to use a callMethod("path","method","param1","param2") style approach instead?
