[flexcoders] Re: How to pass Flex ArrayCollection to Coldfusion CFC?

[markflex2007]

Hi,

I try to pass flex ArrayCollection to coldfusion cfc like following

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml";
layout="vertical">
<mx:Script>
        <![CDATA[
                import mx.controls.Alert;
        
                  import mx.collections.ArrayCollection;
                  import mx.rpc.events.ResultEvent;
                  import mx.rpc.events.FaultEvent;
                  import mx.events.ValidationResultEvent;
                
                 [Bindable]
            private var myAC:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection([
                {id:89, Contact: 'Bob Jones' },
                {id:5, Contact: 'Jane Smith' },    
                {id:7, Contact: 'Doug Johnson'  },                
                {id:15, Contact: 'John Jackson'}                
             ]);
             
        public function send():void {            
                                cfdata.sendData(myAC);
                         }
            
            
        public function send_Result(event:ResultEvent):void {
                        Alert.show('ok');                        
                 }
                
                public function send_Fault(event:FaultEvent):void {
                        Alert.show(event.fault.message);
                }  
             
            
            
        ]]>
</mx:Script>

    <mx:RemoteObject 
                id="cfdata" showBusyCursor="true" 
                destination="ColdFusion"
                source="debug.cfc.test">
                <mx:method name="send" 
                        result="send_Result(event)"
                        fault="send_Fault(event)" />
        </mx:RemoteObject>

    <mx:DataGrid id="myGrid" 
        dataProvider="{myAC}" editable="true" >  
        <mx:columns>
            <mx:DataGridColumn dataField="id" width="150"
editable="false"/>
            <mx:DataGridColumn dataField="Contact" width="150" />               
         
          
        </mx:columns>    
    </mx:DataGrid>  
    <mx:Button label="Update DB" click="send()"/>
    
</mx:Application>

This is the cfc:

<cfcomponent displayname="TestProcess"  output="false" >

 <cffunction name="sendData" access="remote" output="false"
returntype="true">
         <cfargument name="personQ" type="query" required="true" />             
 
          
        <cfset process = true>
    <cfreturn process />
 </cffunction>   
</cfcomponent>

I get following error message

The argument pass to function is not the type query.

Please let me know which data type I can use in cfc for the Flex
ArrayCollection

Thanks
