I'm wondering if this should be reported as a bug. Basically cfsavecontent
works in unexpected ways. For example, lets say we have a component that
has a method called test, which returns a string.
<cffunction name="test" returntype="string">
<cfset var str="">
<cfsavecontent variable="str">
test
</cfsavecontent>
<cfreturn str>
</cffunction>
The following 2 code listings do completely different things even though it
wouldn't look like it from the first glance. Please note that I haven't
tested this code, so it might not compile, but you should get the gyst of
it. Code listing 1 would output "test", while code listing 2 would output
an empty string. To me, that doesn't work as expected. Should this be
considered a bug and possibly fixed in future versions of CF, or is it just
me?
Code listing 1
<cfoutput>
<cfinvoke component "test" method="test" returnVariable="myStr">
#mystr#
</cfoutput>
Code listing 2
<cfinvoke component "test" method="test" returnVariable="myStr">
<cfoutput>
#mystr#
</cfoutput>
