Oh gee...you can overrite methods too! I didn't know that. Hmmm...sorry to bug you
guys with obvious stuff now, I'm just digging into this deeper now.
Set test.cfm to
<cfscript>
myobj = CreateObject("Component", "test");
goo = myobj.foo();
WriteOutput(goo);
WriteOutput("<br />");
function myFoo()
{
return "anothergooey";
}
myobj.foo = myFoo;
goo = myobj.foo();
WriteOutput(goo);
</cfscript>
and test.cfc to
<cfcomponent>
<cffunction name="foo" access="public" returntype="string">
<cfreturn "gooey" />
</cffunction>
</cfcomponent>
