Webmaster Forum / Flash / Flash Remoting / July 2008

I'm trying to pass a structure to a ColdFusion component from Flash but it
keeps failing with this error:

"Unknown object type tag (17)"

Here's my AS. I've tried using Array, Object, and Dictionary as types:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
loadData_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, loadData)

var myService = new NetConnection()
myService.connect("http://localhost/flashservices/gateway/")

function loadData(evt:MouseEvent){
    var responder = new Responder(getTest_Result, onFault);
    var mystruct:Array = new Array();
    mystruct["mystring"] = "hello";
    myService.call("com.mycomponent.test", responder, mystruct);
}

function getTest_Result(result){
    trace("success: "+ result);
}

function onFault( f){
    trace("There was a problem: " + f.description);
}
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

...and here's my component function (I've tried with an argument type of
'struct' as well as 'any':
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
<cffunction name="test" output="no" access="remote" returntype="string" >
    <cfargument name="argstruct" type="any" required="yes" />
    <cfset mystr =arguments.argstruct["mystring"]>
    <cfreturn  mystr />
</cffunction>
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I was successful in sending and returning a string as a test to ensure that
the apps were set up correctly. It's only when I try to pass a struct that I
get an error.

I've seen the docs on using the Flash scope in CF but I get the same error
when I try it.

Thanks in advance for any help,
