Actually I stand corrected. If you want, you can easily write a UDF
called validateThis(). Your methods would look like so:
<cffunction name="a" .....>
<cfif not validateThis(arguments)>
<cfthrow an error>
</cfif>
...
</cffunction>
<cffunction name="b" .....>
<cfif not validateThis(arguments)>
<cfthrow an error>
</cfif>
...
</cffunction>
The only drawback is that the descriptor for the CFC won't display the
arguments. If you don't care - then this is a valid option.
