Question

Consume BlazeDS service from ColdFusion client? Cannot require Flash Player.

Our current project is being written in CF9. We have been mandated to not require our customers to install any third-party plugins, such as Flash Player. Unfortunately, our back end data is a presented as a java-based BlazeDS service.

I was thinking to wrap a proxy CFC around the backend service but it seems that ColdFusion doesn't know how to consume BlazeDS. I don't see a way to do it wih CreateObject.

Is the way forward to create a java wrapper?

I am hoping that I am missing something really obvious and simple.

Well I can't really be much help here because I have never used it but I thought ColdFusion comes installed with some sort of BlazeDS functionality.

Thank you, Miguel, for your reply. Yes, ColdFusion will serve BlazeDS but I don't know how to make it connect to an existing service. In all those examples, Flex is the AMF consumer. You'd think it would be simple, eh?
