hola peeps.

i have a cfc, that simply takes an integer that represents a heading,
and turn that into a value that i display based on the return.

i put the cfc in the session scope:

<cfset session['COG'] = createObject("component","cfc.cogToDirection") />

and then just hit it like this...

#session['COG'].COGToDirection(getThis.COG[i])#

and display all in the same line.

now, in my debugging output i see 0ms.  but i know that there is no
such thing.  there are milliseconds attached, im sure, and enough of
those, well, you know... equal a second.  regardless... do you think,
as a preference, that i would be better off with a simple
cfswitch/cfcase section of code that does this, rather than hit the
cfc?

thanks.
