web services and Application scope

[Francisco Mancardi]

how do I see my Application variables within a method of a webservice-called
CFC?

I have an external system that calls my coldfusion mx 7 app through a web
service.
I wrote a CFC with methods with access="remote" to expose them.
The external system (not a CF app) calls a method that runs some queries
against a database.

In the body of that method, how can I see my Application variables (i need to
know the DSN, and other variables that I
saved in the Application scope)?

Thanks for your help

Your Application.cfm is called for every .cfm or .cfc in your app, so if they
are in there they will be available to your CFC and therefore can be used in
the remote function you are calling as a Web Service.

That is not true. Application variables are available to requests that include the cfapplicaiton tag. Webservices don't include the Application.cfm like normal requests do.

You're wrong. Application.cfm/cfc is called every time CFM or CFC is called. So, you can always reference application.variableName in the method.

Don't quite understand your question, but if you want to see application variables:

<cfoutput>
<cfdump var="#application#">
</cfoutput>
