Re: [CFCDev] Init Methods on CFCs

[Aaron Rouse]

Changes are that if "tomorrow" it needs to require an initialization the initialization will also require some arguments.  I do not see how the change with not already having the Init() is any different vs already having it, still means a mass find/replace and so long as the coding is consistant either one would be simpe enough to change IMHO.

"Tomorrow", you might decide to change SortMaster in a way that requires initialization. Assuming your app is live, you might have a delicate dance deploying the change without breaking your app. And you'll need to touch much more code than you would if you already had the init() in place.

Now in this particular case, it might not be a big deal. But the larger the app, the more these considerations come into play.

All,

I have a two function utility cfc that I use to create sortable columns for
record displays. Always before I have called

<cfset var SortMaster = CreateObject("Component",
"CAMSymphony.model.util.SortMaster") />

Many of the framework and OO oriented CFC patterns that I have seen actually
have a init() method and are created like this:

<cfset var SortMaster = CreateObject("Component",
"CAMSymphony.model.util.SortMaster").init() />

I understand the purpose in the frameworks for using this pattern, but in a
simple cfc is there a purpose for this? 

Any advise would be great.
