Old Chinese saying: "If all else fails read the @#$% manual"
' ... Use the StructCopy function when you want to create a physical copy of
a structure. You can also use assignment to create a copy by reference. '
If you want thread safe variables, and you want to copy a complex variable
query / structure. A simple assignment is NOT enough! You must use
StructCopy.

Subject: Locking & Request Scoped Variables (was RE: Global
Variables)
Picking up on something Fred Sanders said in his reply:
"...The request scope is a global thread safe variable scope.
To get out of having to do locks I often make request. scoped
pointers to
whatever application scoped variables I've set. "
I seem to remember Dave Watts mentioning on the CF-Talk list that
pointers
to shared memory variable scopes (ie. session, application, etc...)
are no
better from a locking perspective than the direct call to them. Did
I
misunderstand? Anyone care to clarify this request. pointer issue?
Thanks,
Chris
