Is there a script equivalent of cflogin?

Pretty much all of the ColdFusion language has been made available in some form using the cfscript syntax in ColdFusion 9. One item that I have not be able to find, though, is whether or not there is a script equivalent to the cflogin tag.

If there isn't, is there maybe a workaround using flash remoting gateway?

why not roll your own. Write a function using the cf tag version, that uses cflogin then call that from cfscript as in

logUserIn(username, pass);

the method works for any cf tag that does not have its equivalent in cfscript.

That can't work in this case. cflogin creates a special transient scope that is available during the execution of the cflogin tag. It doesn't exist outside of that, not even in the request scope.

+1 A:

<cflogin> in script style is not supported, but you can write your own.

For all supported tags in CF9 script, see: Extending ColdFusion Pages with CFML Scripting - What is supported in CFScript

Do you have an example?
