Ben, That's too bad we can't utilize overloading. Although it's interesting to note that arguments being passed into a function can have a type.
I will go with the workaround for my particular needs.

Truth is, the whole concept of overloading is a tough one in ColdFusion as CF is typeless. Your best bet is to have a method accept any and all types, and then check to see what the type is in the method and call other code accordingly. --- Ben -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of sean Sent: Monday, August 04, 2003 4:56 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [CFCDev] Overloading CFCs Thanks Hal. Do you know if this was fixed in Red Sky? BTW looking forward to your class in LV.

I am currently working with the Mach-ii methodology and was trying to do the following in a CFC. I want to narrow down the error I am getting to either a logic issue on my hand or something in the mach-ii framework. I am basically trying to *overload* the CFC (might be confusing my terms here). That is if the arguments passed to setInfo is a struct, then the second function is called, if a simple numeric value is passed, than the first function is executed. <cffunction name="setInfo" access="public"> <cfargument name="bidAmount" type="numeric" required="true" /> <cfset this.bidAmountD = arguments.bidAmount /> <cfset this.bidMaxAMount = arguments.bidAmount /> <cfset this.bidType = 1/> <cfset this.bidderID = 0 /> <cfset this.targetAuctionID = 97507 /> </cffunction> <cffunction name="setInfo" access="public"> <cfargument name="info" type="query" required="true" /> <cfset this.bidAmountD = arguments.info.bidAmount /> <cfset this.bidMaxAMount = arguments.info.bidMaxAmount /> <cfset this.bidType = arguments.info.bidType /> <cfset this.bidderID = arguments.info.bidderID /> <cfset this.targetAuctionID = arguments.info.targetAuctionID /> </cffunction> Thanks in advance.
