On a similar line, I've used the "attaching a function to a CFC" to
allow use of Nathan Dintenfass' "CFC Remote Documentor"
(http://www.changemedia.org/cfcremotedocumenter/) with any CFC, without
having to put <cfinclude template="cfcremotedocumenter.cfm"> in every
CFC.
I have a file called autodoc.cfm which take a single url parameter of
"object" (the CFC name) and outputs the docs (similar to the standard
CFC doc browser, but much pettier!). It has the following in (no error
handling, just quick and dirty):
<!--- include documentor functions --->
<cfinclude template="cfcremotedocumenter.cfm">
<cfscript>
// get an instance of the appropriate object
obj = createobject("component", url.object");
// dynamically attach the appropriate functions
obj.getDocumentation = getDocumentation;
obj.cfcDocumenter_getAllData = cfcDocumenter_getAllData;
obj.cfcDocumenter_getHierarchy = cfcDocumenter_getHierarchy;
obj.cfcDocumenter_getProperties = cfcDocumenter_getProperties;
obj.cfcDocumenter_getFunctions = cfcDocumenter_getFunctions;
obj.cfcDocumenter_parameterSummaryFormat =
cfcDocumenter_parameterSummaryFormat;
</cfscript>
<!--- call the doc method --->
<cfoutput>#variables.obj.getDocumentation()#</cfoutput>
