Hi everyone,
I'm trying to figure out the "best" way to handle user validation errors
inside my CFCs. I've written CFCs previously that used a returned struct
directly from the CFC with the errors for the current method. But I'm
thinking it might be a good idea to create a global "Error Handler" cfc that
would have just a few methods, like:
setError("fieldname", "ErrorTitle", "ErrorString")
getError("fieldname")
getErrors() - Returns full struct of errors
Then errors inside the object would be managed by a structure. My problem
with this is how do I reference this global error object? Do I pass it in
for each DAO method I use? So for example, would I do something like this?:
<cfset ErrObject = CreateObject("component", "cfc.ErrorHanderl").init()>
<cfset User = CreateObject("component", "cfc.User").init()>
<!---
Do some sets on the user
--->
<cfset User.Update(ErrorObject)>
I'm not quite sure if I'm taking the right approach here and just asking for
trouble, since all of my objects will have to know about the error handlers
methods. I think this is valid composition but would somewhat break the
encapsulation of my objects.
Thanks in advance,
Dan
