>>> It'd be nice to have [etc]

agreed, although in VB objects were passed around byRef anyway. I miss
having the choice too for simple variables and arrays.

I suspect that it's too hard to do - it's like wanting the underlying
Java to have pointers...

OK, so what's the diff between the arguments passed when you do this

1) obj.method(theArg=localVar)

vs this

2) obj.method(theArg="#localVar#")


geez, it'd be great if the first was byRef and the second byVal...

Which was my point.

It's possible and useful in other languages.  And it's half-arsed and
illogical in CF.  Hence the suggestion:
