create "myFunction" outside of "someFunction", but call it from within.
<CFComponent Name="SomeName">
<CFFunction Name="SomeFunction" Output="False" ReturnType="String">
<!--- here's where you call it insted of creating it --->
<cfset myVar = myFunction(someArgument) />
</CFFunction>
<cfscript>
function MyFunction(arg) {
return arg;
}
</cfscript>
</CFComponent>
You'll notice that I left the 'MyFunction' function in
<cfscript>...which is legal. But here's some more advice that you
never asked for. Bear in mind this comes from someone who loves the
heck out of <cfscript>. I just prefer the syntax, it's less typing
for things like setting variables, etc. But, i always use
<cffunction> in my CFCs. <cffunction> just offers so much more over
<cfscript> functions (IMO) just because of the <cfargument> tag. Now,
you -could- create your <cffunction> with your <cfargument> tags and
write the rest of the function in <cfscript>. However, I don't care
for that myself. It's just a matter of preference, but as somebody
else has already pointed out, I like to see consistency in the code.
Seeing cf tags mixed in with cfscript all willy-nilly is one of those
things that makes that vein in my forehead start to pulsate :)
