Can Coldfusion CFCs be instantiated from Java?

I know it is possible to instantiate a Java class from ColdFusion, but is it possible to instantiate a ColdFusion CFC from Java code?

For instance (in Java):

ColdFusionCFC obj = new ColdFusionCFC("filename.cfc");

I am wondering if it is possible to gradually transition away from an existing ColdFusion codebase to some other JVM-based language without needing to rewrite everything right away.

Adobe's Ben Forta has some documentation on CFCProxy you might find useful, at: http://www.forta.com/misc/cfcproxy.htm

I also once blogged about using the CFCProxy in a CF cluster here, referring to ColdFusion 8 at the time: http://www.talkingtree.com/blog/index.cfm/2008/2/6/Using-the-CFC-Proxy-in-a-ColdFusion-Cluster

Calling ColdFusion CFCs from Java is a feature of ColdFusion 10. If you're not using CF10, you can call CFCs with remote functions as an HTTP web service.
