Thanks to you and others, I understand now that if you change your CFC
and have already run it inside the application scope, you need to
reinit. Your suggested code is very handy for that. Thanks!
Now...
"....This will cause your initialization code in the application.cfm file to
fire, which will recreate the object, call the init() method, AND that would
reload the query data from the database]."
Maybe I'm reading this wrong but that seems to imply, to me, that when
you instantiate a cfc-object, all methods are called within that class
and if it's a query, it reads that query from the database and into
memory and doesn't look at the database again unless you re- instantiate it.
To try to prove this to myself, I brought up my browser, loaded the
application and displayed the inventory on-screen, then I went into the
database and manually added an entry. I then sorted the recordset
within the browser and my new entry appeared.
This to me means that I wouldn't need to reinit when adding new
records. Am I missing something?
After I call the method like thus:
<cfset qryInventory =
application.inventory.getInventory('#selSortBy#','#selInventoryID#','#selClass_Name#','#selSubClass_Name#','#selSize#')
/>
I then output it by just referring to the name of the query like this.
<cfoutput query="qryInventory" startrow="#selStartRow#"
maxrows="#selMaxRows#">
It seems to me, at least with my CFC's design, that there is no reading
of the data into the application memory space, thus no need to reinit
unless I change the CFC itself. This behavior is what I would expect
but having said that, is there a 'better', way?
