...I find that I occasionally end up wanting to dynamically decide which method of a CFC to call. It ends up looking something like:
cfcInstance.tempMethodName = cfcInstance[cfcMethodNameIWant]; cfcInstance.tempMethodName(whateverArgs); structDelete(cfcInstance,"tempMethodName");
Any opinions on this practice? Is it a "bad thing"?
I was going to suggest using this:
cfcInstance[cfcMethodNameIWant](whateverArgs);
...but in testing I found something interesting. This dumps a function:
<cfdump var="#cfcInstance[cfcMethodNameIWant]#"/>
...but when you try to call that function, this throws a parse error on the parens:
<cfoutput>#cfcInstance[cfcMethodNameIWant]()#</cfoutput>
Not what I would have expected. Why do you suppose? Is this a bug?
