Flash 8 combo box dataprovider using coldfusion 8 cfc

["Jim Schell" <Jschell66-NoSpam-@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello group,

I am looking for information on how to set the dataprovider of a combobox in 
flash 8 to the result of a cfc method of cfdirectory in coldfusion. I would 
like this to be
dynamic in that when a user uploads a file to the website that the flash 
combobox will hold the name of the file in it. My cfdirectory tag returns a 
list of files based on
the paramters supplied, but I am unable to get the data from cfc into the 
dataprovider. Any help you could give me would be greatly appreaciated.

The method is as follows and when I invoke this method on a cfm page I get a 
list of zip files in the directory folder of the template so I know the 
method works

<cffunction name="getAllZipFiles" access="remote" returnType="query" 
output="true">
 <cfdirectory action="list" 
directory="#GetDirectoryFromPath(GetTemplatePath())#" name="CurrentDir" 
filter="*.zip">
 <cfoutput query="CurrentDir">
  #Name#<br>
 </cfoutput>

 <cfreturn CurrentDir>

 </cffunction>

------------------------
I have a properly funtioning flash remoting setup so I know it is not that.

//Import the Flash Remoting Classes
import mx.remoting.Service;//import mx.remoting.NetServices;
import mx.services.Log;
import mx.rpc.RelayResponder;
import mx.rpc.FaultEvent;
import mx.rpc.ResultEvent;
import mx.remoting.PendingCall;
import mx.remoting.RecordSet;
import mx.remoting.DataGlue;


//Connect to the Gateway
//Establish the Service
var myService : Service = new Service(
  "http://localhost/flashservices/gateway";,
  new Log (Log.DEBUG),
  "helloExamples.myRemote",
  null,
  null);

//Test the Connection
function getTestConn ()
{
 //Create a PendingCall object
 var testConn_pc : PendingCall = myService.getTestConn();
 //Use the responder property to handle the success or failure
 testConn_pc.responder = new RelayResponder (this, "getTestConn_Result", 
"getTestConn_Fault");
}
//Handle the Success
function getTestConn_Result (re : ResultEvent)
{
 //trace(re.result);
 capText.text = re.result
 //call the tabs query
 //getTabs();
 //getMyRules();
 getZipFiles();
}
//Handle the Failure
function getTestConn_Fault (fault:FaultEvent):Void
{
 trace ("error");
}

--------------------
I get an error that the data returned is not of a list type even though the 
returnType is set to query when I test the movie.

12/25 20:37:6 [DEBUG] : helloExamples.myRemote.getAllZipFiles() returned 
{code: "Server.Processing",
     description: "The value returned from the getAllZipFiles function is 
not of type list.",
     details: "",
     level: "error",
     rootcause: {code: null,
          description: "The value returned from the getAllZipFiles function 
is not of type list.",
          details: "",
          level: "error",
          type: ""},
     type: ""}

--------------------
Here is the actionscript function for the combobox

//get all the zip files in the current directory
function getZipFiles ()
{
 var ZipFiles_pc : PendingCall = myService.getAllZipFiles();
 ZipFiles_pc.responder = new RelayResponder (this, "getZipFiles_Result", 
"getZipFiles_Fault");
}
function getZipFiles_Result (re : ResultEvent)
{
 DataGlue.bindFormatStrings(myCombo_cb,re.result,"#name#","#name#")
}
function getZipFiles_Fault (fault:FaultEvent):Void
{
 trace ("error");
}
