You can handle this by defining a transient bean CFC in your model,
populating an instance of the bean via the event context, and passing the
populated bean to your service method. Your transient bean must have setter
methods for each form field (either explicit methods or implicit setters via
CF9 property declarations).
Controller code in CFScript syntax:
var transientBean =
CreateObject("component","app.model.transientBean").init();
arguments.event.makeEventBean(transientBean,
"field1,field2,field3,field4,field5,field6,field7,field8,field9,field10");
beans.someService.serviceMethod(transientBean);
The field list may be omitted (it defaults to all fields in the event
context) but I prefer listing them explicitly as a security measure to
prevent unintended setters from being called.
Hope that helps,
