Has anyone ever written a web service and had it successfully
called by a Lotus Notes application? That's what I'm trying and
basically nothing works. Also, our Notes developers have attempted
to call other web services written in Cold Fusion and have never
been successful. I am able to successfully call the ones that fail
for them by using cold fusion.
The Notes technique of calling web services is similar to
CF's cfobject/CreateObject technique. One line of code creates an
object and the next calls a method. In our attempts, the first line
always runs successfully and the 2nd always fails. The error
message is: Automation Object Error
The cfc I am using for testing takes no arguments and returns
a string. In the functions I have tried returntype="string" and
returntype="any". In the cfcomponent tag, I have gone with no style
attribute and style="document". So far nothing works.
Has anyone successfully done this?
