So don't change the backend. I am sure if you tried you could write a group of
generic modules in CF.
Here is an example of what I wrote using fluorine/asp.net. This version does
not have the security I built in. You pass in an SQL statement and it sends
back an array collection. I have a CF
I should also mention we're using CF9 on the back-end. So the VOs have to be
defined in .CFC files as well. So if anyone can tell me how to do dynamic VOs
in both CF9 and Flex, that'd be wonderful.
Alternatively, if there's a way to transfer data between Flex and CF9 that
doesn't involve VOs
We're using an SQL database with a ColdFusion intermediary between the Flex
app and the database... I've used XML files to configure a couple of the
components -- give the user the option to change the layout of a component, for
example, by modifying the contents of a config.xml file, that
You could probably try having a base VO for all the properties that you know
will be there and include a single property in the VO which would be either
a Dictionary or a generic object used as an associative array to handle all
your custom properties. Then just populate the VO like you normally
Thanks for the suggestion... I may be able to make that work...
If I understand you correctly, I'd need to return an array-within-an-array kind
of thing... My normal array of VOs, with one property of each VO being an
array itself... Sounds easy enough...
But I've tried before to get CF to
First, let me say that I have been roundly criticized for taking the approach
of NOT using VOs.
Second, I use .NET FluorineFX.

*Having said that, I created my applications in such a way that my middle

stored procedures as well.
My presentation layer, Flex, builds a SQL
See what I mean, I get criticized roundly.
Of course I have security enabled, including passing constantly changing tokens
(unique for each user for each login for each transaction) from the front end
to the backend, that need to match.
I suppose if there were a clever user that had lots of
