Jimmy, I've seen a lot of people that do this....
<cffunction name="someFunc" returnType="query" output="false">
<cfargument name="foo" type="string" required="true" />
<cfscript>
// do cfscript style code here
</cfscript>
</cffunction>
...and then you sort of get the best of both words. Assuming you're on
CMFX and not CF 5.0, the performance hit in switching between CFML and
CFscript isn't an issue since it all gets compiled down to byte code
anyway. Though I do think there is a slight performance hit in adding
the "type=" code in your cfargument tag, but I've never had it be an
issue.

Subject: [CFCDev] Typing Arguments of a Function
Morning,
Personally, I feel that CFSCRIPT code is much prettier than a tag based
CFC.
But, my intent is not to spark a debate on the elegance of using tags.
In
instances where my functions require a tag, I generally use a CFC that
I've
built which contains functions that interface with the tag. CFQUERY,
CFDUMP,
etc. I'm sure this is a rather common technique.
What I do like about the CFFUNCTION/CFARGUMENT tags are the ability to
explicitly define the return type and output of a function, and the data
types of the arguments. To my knowledge, this is not possible when
defining
a function w/ CFSCRIPT.
Does anyone have a work around, or a way of accomplishing this in
CFSCRIPT?
Thanks,
Jimmy G
