Yes when you're inside you don't need to use getter and setter methods.

The second is preferable because it encapsulates the data. The first one
would be accessible outside the object as object.name = "Jason", whereas
the second one would have to be called by object.getName()
Hope this helps.

Please respond to
CFCDev
I have getters and setters.
My question is specifically targeted for when you are inside the CFC.
Shouldn't the methods inside an object have direct access to that object's
properties?

Always use getters/setters. This allows for encapsulation.
I use "variables.instance.propertyA", "variables.instance.propertyB", etc.
and then getters/setters for each, e.g.
<cffunction name"getPropertyA" access="public" returntype="WHATEVER">
<cfreturn variables.instance.propertyA />
</cffunction>
And then you write a function similarly for the setter...

If I'm inside a CFC and I've created an instance scope, how should I access
the properties of the object.
this.getBlah or instance.Blah
Any thoughts?
