call Java Class directly via Flash Remoting with CFMX Standard ?

[leftPeg]

Is it possible to call a Java class directly from my Action Script if I'm using CFMX Standard? or do I need CFMX for J2EE?

I've looked at this

http://www.macromedia.com/support/flashremoting//ts/documents/presalesfaq.htm#javafiles

and thought that by putting my jar files in /opt/coldfusionmx/runtime/servers/default/SERVER-INF/lib

or putting my classes in
/opt/coldfusionmx/runtime/servers/default/SERVER-INF/classes

it should work.

But if I try

NetServices.setDefaultGatewayUrl("http://192.168.0.73/flashservices/gateway");
var gw = NetServices.createGatewayConnection();

var service_HelloWorld = gw.getService("path.to.class.HelloWorld",this);

I get the following error in the debugger

Service threw an exception during method invocation: No service named path.to.class.HelloWorld is known to Flash Remoting MX."


I have no problems calling a CFC via the gateway, so I know Flash remoting is working.

Any advice/help would be welcome.
