Hello all.
What's the closest thing CF has to "public static final" in java?
For example, I am writing a logging compoent, and I want to declare some
constants:
<cfcomponent name="Log">
<cfscript>
this.DEBUG = 0;
this.INFO = 10;
// and so on..
</cfscript>
</cfcomponent name="Log">
The idea being that in the client code, I can do something like:
myLogInstance.setLogLevel(Log.DEBUG); // I'm aware that Log.DEBUG will
// fail, as CF doesn't have static
// vars either
Now, the trouble with using /this/ is that someone can come along and
reassign the values and it will all end in tears.
What practice does the Rest Of The World use for similar situations?
