I notice that every variable created in a CFC's initialization section stays
in memory for the life of the object. Is there a way to avoid that? One
way I thought of is to create every temporary variable in a particular
structure, then reset that structure at the end of the initialization, but
I'm wondering if there is a better way. Here's a demonstration of my
method, the class is employees, which creates a collection of employee
objects, using 'foo' as the throw away structure. I'd appreciate your
comments or suggestions.
<!--- this component will create structure 'priv' when initialized. The foo
structure is discarded. --->
<cfcomponent name="employees">
<cfquery name="foo.rs">
select name, department
from emp
</cfquery>
<cfloop query="foo.rs"> <!--- once this loop is done, foo.rs is no
longer necc. --->
<cfset priv[name] = createObject("component", 'employee')>
<cfset priv[name].new(name, department)>
</cfloop>
<cfset foo = ''> <!--- free the foo memory --->
<cffunction name="getEmployeeByName" return="employee">
<cfargument name="name">
<cfreturn priv[arguments.name]>
</cffunction>
</cfcomponent>
