28.3. Using CFCs with the RemoteObject Component

To call a CFC function from a Flex client application, you start by creating an instance of the RemoteObject component. This is the same RPC component that's used to integrate Flex applications with LiveCycle Data Services and BlazeDS, and the client-side code that's used to communicate with ColdFusion is almost exactly the same. If the source of the component is set to a wildcard in the server-side destination, you set the component's source property in the client-side RemoteObject declaration.

28.3.1. Setting the source property

The CFC is known to the Flex client application by its fully qualified name and location, declared with dot notation. This String value is passed to the RemoteObject component's source property to determine which component will be called on the server.
