[cfaussie] Re: CFC naming question

I would say that you should probably treat upload as a verb.

You don't have an upload object, you have an object that has been 
uploaded, is being uploaded, or will be uploaded.

The object itself is a file of some sort. You could just give it a 
generic name of file, or you could give it a name that relates to the 
type of file - imageFile, pdfFile, wordFile etc.

Hey All

Just a quick query on naming cfc's and functions. Does anyone have a
convention for dealing with cases when your keyword is both a noun and a
verb.
The example is "upload", I can perform an upload() (verb) or I can have an
Upload object (noun) which has certain properties that relate to it
(uploadDate, userId, etc...).
Any ideas?

The best I've come up with is:

<cfcomponent displayName="Upload">
        <cffunction name="newUpload">
                <!--- logs that an Upload has been triggered --->
                ....
        </cffunction>
        <cffunction name="finaliseUpload">
                <!--- logs that the Upload has completed successfully --->
                ....
        </cffunction>
        <cffunction name="logUploadError">
                <!--- logs a problem with the Upload --->
                ....
        </cffunction>
</cfcomponent>
Maybe a non issue, but my brain is in Friday mode.
