For a little more clarity, the CFC result handler in therMap would look
something like this:
<EventHandlers type="{ LoginEvent.LOGIN }" debug="true">
<HTTPServiceInvoker instance="{ services.login }" request="{
event.userName }" >
<resultHandlers>
<MethodInvoker generator="{ UserManager }"
method="loginResult" arguments="{ resultObject }"/>
</resultHandlers>
</HTTPServiceInvoker>
</EventHandlers>
Sorry, I don't use CF but you get the picture.
