Ok, having some struggles here with ColdFusion CFCs, related AS VOs,
and remoteobject.
Say I have a CFC called Customer.cfc which is bean styled. It has a
property Addresses which is a array of Address.cfc also bean styled.
Similarly I have ActionScript VOs setup and registered to map to the
CFCs. Ok, I build a Flex app that retrieves a Customer object. It
gets mapped over to AS ok, I can see the array of Address objects and
see they are typed correctly. Now I call a method via RemoteObject
called save() passing the Customer object to this method. Bomb! When
the AS array of objects is passed to CF it loses its type. Below I
have some code example of what things look like.
Thoughts?
Customer.cfc
<cfcomponent>
<cfproperty name="customerId" type="numeric" default="0" />
<cfproperty name="addresses" type="address[]" />
<cfscript>
variables.customerId= 0;
variables.address = ArrayNew(1);
</cfscript>
<cffunction name="getCustomerId" output="false" access="public"
returntype="numeric">
<cfreturn variables.customerId>
</cffunction>
<cffunction name="setCustomerId" output="false" access="public"
returntype="void">
<cfargument name="val" required="true">
<cfset variables.customerId = arguments.val>
</cffunction>
<cffunction name="getAddress" output="false" access="public"
returntype="address[]">
<cfreturn variables.address >
</cffunction>
<cffunction name="setAddress" output="false" access="public"
returntype="void">
<cfargument name="val" required="true" type="address[]" >
<cfset variables.address = arguments.val>
</cffunction>
</cfcomponent>
address.cfc
