CF Queries are actually readable from .NET, the VB6 WS Toolkit, and Java
when returned from a CF web service.  Depending on how interoperable you
want/need to be, this may be enough.

Subject: [CFCDev] Complex Data in web services

I am trying to plan my first web services application.

Right now both sides are ColdFusion applications (that I control). Later 
other sites may be involved with other languages.

I need to pass complex data. I know that I should avoid passing queries in 
order to stay agnostic.

What I don't know is how to handle complex data in a manner that is 
sufficiently self-documenting that it will be easy to consume for future 
web sites. Anyone have any suggestions?

I tried to Google for this, but I am too dim to figure out a search term 
that would get me the information that I need. (a few pages of "web 
services complex data", didn't help).

Thanks!

Steve Bryant.
