You could decompile the library.swf in the swc and just have a look. Note: doing so might break some ColdFusion EULA regulations depending on where in the world one is while doing it. Don't try this at home!
My personal educated guess is: the CF service classes like for instance <cf:mail...> wrap some remoting calls to the default CF remoting endpoint and talk to the set of CFCs in CFIDE/services. I don't think there'd be many dependencies on the Flex SDK. Cheers Kai > I don't about Actionscript only projects, but cfservices will > definitely work with Flex projects.
