Teddy,
The reason you're seeing this error with the shorthand is because the deleted method returns void, not a record. So, by chaining these calls together you're not setting anything into the region variable so you can't ask it if it's deleted.
This isn't a bug, this is how CF works.
Thanks,
Doug Hughes

Subject: [Reactor for CF] IsDeleted()
I have found that there is a curious behavior with the IsDeleted() method of the record factory.
The following code is deleting a record. This does not generate an error for the IsDeleted() method.
<cfscript>
Reactor = CreateObject("Component","reactor.reactorFactory").init(expandPath("reactor.xml"));
Region = Reactor.createRecord("Region").load(RegionID=5);
Region.delete();
Deleted = Region.IsDeleted();
</cfscript>
The following shorthand version does cause an error.
<cfscript>
Reactor = CreateObject("Component","reactor.reactorFactory").init(expandPath(" reactor.xml"));
Region = Reactor.createRecord("Region").delete(RegionID=5);
Deleted = Region.IsDeleted();
</cfscript>
If I do not have a load() method prior to the IsDeleted() check, an error is generated. I suspect the shorthand notation deconstructs the region record object and therefore does not provide the IsDeleted() method a valid object to reference.
Is this a bug? Or is this just how the IsDeleted() behaves and requires the prerequisite of a load()?
Thanks,
