Adam,
I haven't an answer for you directly but...
>> you know, as per the top of the API docs one
gets when browsing straight to the CFC
perhaps opening up the component browser files
and having a look to see how they do it? They're in plain text (not encrypted).
I've gone in and tweeked the component viewer for my own idiosyncratic
uses - it's a bit of a rabit warren, but not too bad...
just a
thought. let us know how you get on...
cheers

Subject: RE: [CFCDev] Knowing the CFC path from within the CFC(I'm resurrecting a thread from 2003, sorry)Hi.So ages ago a namesake of mine was asking about getting the CFC *path* from within the CFC itself. Same-named people think alike (in my case it's nothing to do with "great minds", anyhow(*)), so here I am asking the same question...Now, I know that I can do this:getMetadata(this).name;That's OK, but if the CFC was instantiated using just it's filename, then that's all one gets back in that NAME property. I don't want to get what name the CFC was instantiated with, I want to get its full dotted path: "com.adam.rubbish.myComponent" or whatever (you know, as per the top of the API docs one gets when browsing straight to the CFC).It's been suggested to loop over the path value and do some jiggery-pokery to contrive a dotted name, but... really... seems like a lot of work for something that should "just be there"?I'm *guessing* there's a good (-ish) reason... probably something to do with CF mappings or... something like that.I guess what I'm asking is whether someone's found a way to just pull this value out by magic, or am I stuck with either not bothering, or looping over the path [etc].Cheers for any thoughts.--Adam(*) I hope person "jokes" at MY OWN expense are OK with you, Nando ;-)This email contains confidential information.
