RE: [CFCDev] Confused about var

[Nathan Dintenfass]

In the original case, the "me" variable will be available to all methods within a given instance of the CFC.  Thus, if each user has an instance in the session scope, each one will have a private instance variable called "me".  In that construct, it will always be available as "variables.me" anywhere in the CFC.   You are also correct that if you say <cfset var me = structNew()> at the top of your init method than that variable will be available only inside init() -- you should avoid naming local variables the same as instance variables, as that can make your code confusing and makes it easy to code in hard-to-diagnose bugs.       -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]On Behalf Of Marlon Moyer Sent: Sunday, February 22, 2004 1:18 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [CFCDev] Confused about var I forgot to add that if I place the <cfset var me = structnew()> in the init function, then it will only be available in the init function right?   Marlon     From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Marlon Moyer Sent: Sunday, February 22, 2004 3:02 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [CFCDev] Confused about var   Say with a CFC like this:   <cfcomponent>             <cfset me = structnew()>               <cffunction name=”init”>               </cffunction>   </cfcomponent>   I can’t use the var keyword on the me structure, so will it be a shared instance among all instances of the CFC.  I’m trying to use this cfc in the session scope, and every session will have one of these cfc’s.    Marlon
