CF is not a compiled language, and the typechecking that interfaces do happen at compile time. Bit of a catch-22, because the checks you want HAVE to happen at a place that doesn't exist in CF's world. The real reason for wanting interfaces is for the runtime typechecking that CF does. I.e. declare an interface, specify the interface as an argument type or return type, and then pass CFCs that implement the interface. This is a far more important reason for wanting interfaces in CF, and fortunately, it's one that doesn't require a paradigm shift in CF language processing to implement, so it might actually happen at some point. cheers, barneyb </quote> I can see them as well, but the encoding is base64.... and this is what the source looks like.
