Partly out of curiousity and partly out of need, I'm wondering whether
anyone has any "ammunition" for discussions about best practices. For
example, things like:
1. lock shared variables
2. prefix variables with a scope
3. select only columns you need instead of select *
4. cfscript is faster than multiple <cfset> statements when there's more
than 3
etc.
Granted, these are not hard and fast rules (except #1), but everyone seems
to accept them as the best or proper way to do things. I hear many (and I
do this as well) use the phrase, "according to Allaire...".
Does anyone have any references that back things like this up? From
Allaire, from personal experimentation, etc.? I'm looking for somewhat
official information as opposed to "I tried this once and...". The kind of
stuff you could bring into a meeting and hand out and people would accept,
you know?
TIA for anything you can offer.
Evan
