Marlon,
You could also bind a CFC instance variable to the session or application
scope (or a sub struct within the scope) and have a shared variable among
all INSTATIATED cfcs within the particular uses session or the current
application.
<cfcomponent name="foo">
<cfset variables.shared = StructGet("session.shared.foo")>
<cffunction name="getBar" returntype="string" access="public">
<cfreturn shared.bar/>
</cffunction>
</cfcomponent>
I've used this method in the past, and it works pretty well. You have to be
aware of is concurrency issues and take care of them with the appropriate
locks. Also, beware if you use this in conjunction with inheritence.
