If I am reading correctly you want to do this (i added CF comments
explaining myself):
<cfloop index="i" from="1" to="6">
<cfif stprops_polling["answer" & i] GT 0> <!--- you dont need the ##
and quotes around i --->
<cfset variables.stprops['answer' & i] = {} /> <!--- this is fine --->
<!--- you are setting .dsn in the key again. you to set it as a
struct. do this: --->
<cfset variables.stprops['answer' & i].dsn = application.dsn /> <!---
move .dsn outside --->
<cfset variables.stprops['answer' & i].conditions =
{answer1='1',pollingobjectid=stobj.pollingobjectid} /> <!--- same
things here, move .conditions out, and no need for ## and quotes --->
<cfset variables['answer' & i & '_sum'] =
obj.getMultipleByQuery(argumentCollection=stprops.answer1) /> <!---
this will result in variables.answer1_sum and variables.answer2_sum,
etc, as queries is this what you want? its fine if you do but I am
just checking. If you want to do answer1.sum or answer2.sum this will
not work. --->
<cfelse>
<cfset variables['answer' & i & '_sum'].recordcount = 0> <!--- again,
setting a struct with the explicit key will set it as the key, move
record count outside --->
</cfif>
</cfloop>
Remember that whatever is within the brackets will be the KEY. If you
want nested structures you need to use either another set of brackets
<cfset variables['structkey']['anotherstructkey'] = 'something' />
OR dot notation
<cfset variables.structkey.anotherstructkey = 'something' />
Perhaps explained better by:
<cfset test = 'SOMEVALUE' />
<cfset variables['structKey_' & test].anotherstructkey = 'something' /
>
This will result in a struct called variables with a key called
'structKey_SOMEVALUE' which is a struct with a key called
'anotherstructkey'0
But, If you do
<cfset variables['structkey_' & test & '.anotherstructkey] =
'something' />
this results in one struct called variables with a key called
'structkey_SOMEVALUE.anotherstructkey'
You see? The dot in the second example does not create another
struct. Its just another character in the key.
Hope this helps
