RE: [CFCDev] cfc check

[Steven Brownlee]

I use this format for get/set property methods.  Every time I do ColdFusion development, I try to think of ways to code like I would (conceptually) in C#, my other main language.  That way I don't need to modify my brain patterns too much when switching back and forth.  Plus it cuts your development time in half when creating property methods.
