258 Chapter 2: ColdFusion Tags
Note: If you do not specify any the proxy attributes, and a corresponding system property is set
(typically in the JVM startup arguments) ColdFusion uses the system property value.
Usage
The following table shows when you can use each attribute:
If the
component attribute specifies a component name, the component with the corresponding
name is instantiated, the requested method is invoked, and then the component instance is
immediately destroyed. If the attribute contains a reference to an instantiated component object,
no instantiation or destruction of the component occurs.
On UNIX systems, ColdFusion searches first for a file with a name that matches the specified
component name, but is all lower case. If it does not find the file, it looks for a file name that
matches the component name exactly, with the identical character casing.
servicePort Optional First port found in
the WSDL
The port name for the web service. This
value is case-sensitive and corresponds to
the
port element’s name attribute under the
service element.
Specify this attribute if the web service
contains multiple ports.
input_params ... Input parameters. For each named input
parameter specify paramName=paramValue.
