Hello,
I have a CFC which does some string parsing to find and replace wildcards. Within the CFC I am calling a method over and over and passing in the entire string as an argument. The method does some magic and returns a result. The string could be a large (like a 2 page document) string and since its being provided as an argument and is not inside an object/struct, I believe its passed by value. Which means, unless I am mistaken, if I call the internal method 100 times, and pass in this large string am I creating a ton of overhead/memory usage? Would I be better off creating a temp structure to hold the string and other arguments (which change with each iteration) and passing that into my method so its passed by reference instead? What do you think?
