Sorry, but my wandering mind's gotten the better of me and I've got a
concept to throw out for those who might want to chew on an idea (no
spitting, please... we just washed the floors).

>From what I remember from my CS classes (my degree is in Electronics, not
CS) functions and procedures are devices that use either an individual or
multiple attributes to perform some computation.  In the case of a function,
at least one value is returned to the calling process.  Forgive me if I'm
reaching a bit here, but doesn't that remind anyone else of a custom tag or
CFX tag?  A procedure doesn't return a value, but simply performs an action
or actions on attributes passed to it.  Taking a bigger stretch, doesn't
that sound a bit like an include?

Now I know, this is getting abstract, but it seems to my thought process
that Allair actually did provide us with a mechanism for performing external
functions that can be used repetively across a wide array of applications
and scopes.  So to throw a kink into the wheel, yes, Cold Fusion does have
functions.  We simply call them something different: Custom Tags.

As for implementing Object Oriented programming concepts, that may be a bit
outside the bounds of what can be done.  In all honesty, that's okay.  I
personally hated OOP... especially when I had a PhD that was more interested
in researching multiprocessor programming concepts than teaching, but I
digress.

Sorry for the rant and the ramble... 19 days nicotine free, living with
in-laws and looking at buying my first house.  All this and I haven't had a
drop of alcohol (yet)!

Enjoy!

Hi Haryono,

if you refer to your previous posts on this issue, and other peoples
subsequent replies ...
I'm sure you will notice that CF isn't OOP and we do not make any
