RE: [DFW CFUG] CFC Best Practice Question

[Knipp, Eric]

As a general rule I put readability/maintainability above performance.  You can always find ways to improve underperforming code, but you can’t always figure out poorly written code.  Not that cfinvoke implies ‘poorly written’ but I prefer consistency over a slight performance increase most of the time.   From: Christopher Jordan [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, August 31, 2006 2:04 PM To: Dallas/Fort Worth ColdFusion User Group Mailing List Subject: Re: [DFW CFUG] CFC Best Practice Question   Well, normally I use a method that will keep the object instantiated so I can keep using it, but in this case really I just need it once and probably won't return to it. Eh... I suppose I'll stick to what I'm used to. I've not used cfinvoke before. I just knew it was a way to transiently call a method, and I thought I read somewhere that that way was quicker. In my case the speed difference might not even be noticeable. I just wanted to get a feel for what other folks did in similar situations. :) Chris Knipp, Eric wrote: I am not sure if its faster if you’re just calling a single method.  I’d bet that cfinvoke and createObjec().runMyMethod() are equivalent in performance, but with createObject() you can keep the object around, while cfinvoke will destroy the object after your method call is completed.   Using cfinvoke is like using your object as a container for UDF’s, while createObject() will give you an object that you can use for whatever.  I guess it depends on what you’re more comfortable with?   From: Christopher Jordan [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, August 31, 2006 1:56 PM To: Dallas/Fort Worth ColdFusion User Group Mailing List Subject: Re: [DFW CFUG] CFC Best Practice Question   Is CreateObject() faster?

I'm wondering if there's a best practice involved in calling the method of one component from another where the two components do not extend each other. Is it best to use cfinvoke, createobject() or cfobject?
