There's a big difference between CF and other OOP languages - "this" scope is *public* in CF but it is not public in *most* OOP languages. It's the *public* aspect that is 'bad' in that there are very, very few cases where it is better than using getters / setters. --- You are currently subscribed to cfaussie as: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Aussie Macromedia Developers: http://lists.daemon.com.au/
