I have been coming across this issue more and more when dealing with
JavaScript and JSON which is ColdFusion changing true|false to YES|NO
values.
For example:-
<cfset foo = true />
<cfoutput>#foo#</cfoutput> = true
<cfset foo = !foo />
<cfoutput>#foo#</cfoutput> = NO
Now take this JSON string for example
{"foo":#foo#} would then become {"foo":NO} which then screws everything up
I posted a feature request on the adobe site to have a toBoolean() function
which would return only true or false based on the argument
So then we would be able to have...
{"foo":#toBollean(foo)#} which would output as {"foo":false}
What are the thoughts here. I was very surprised to see the lack of this
function in the library actually.
Also can anyone one recommend a way to do this now? I tried
JavaCast("Boolean", foo) but that didn't work.
