hmmm … the blog stripped out all my cf tags.

ok — try this pseudo CF (sans angled brackets)

cfset result = StructNew()
cfset result[’propertyOne’] = ‘foo’
cfset result[’propertyTwo’] = ‘bar’
cfreturn result

In CFMX 6.1 or higher, you need to specify your properties using bracket syntax and then case will preserved when the AMF is received on the SWF end.

eg.

The trick with flex2 and cf is that your cfc must have cfproperty tags that match the instance vars of your as object (type and order). This allows the cf amf gateway to translate the properties correctly. Well that and you still have to register your object.

But you are right, cf 7 with flex 2.0 works like a dream compared to how it works with flex 1.5.
