Hey Matt,
Evaluate() shouldn't be used for things like this - use cfinvoke instead:
<cfinvoke component="#record#" method="get#fieldname[i].alias#"
returnVariable="fieldValue">
#fieldValue#
Also, you'll want to use fieldname[i].alias, not fieldname[i].name.

Dan,
I did something like this:
<!--- Display all the data from the fields in the USERS record --->
<cfloop
list="#UserRecord._getObjectMetaData().getFieldList()#"
index="thisField">
#thisField# = #evaluate("UserRecord.get#thisField#()")#<br />
</cfloop>
Is that what you're looking for?

Subject: [Reactor for CF] How do I dynamically call get(fieldname) methods?
I want to create a dynamically generated table from the contents of a single
reactor record. What's the best way to dynamically call the get(fieldname)
methods?
Example (assuming reactor was already initialized as application.reactor):
<!--- Get Field Names --->
<cfset fieldNames =
application.reactor.createRecord("exampleTable")._getObjectMetaData().getFields()>
<!--- Get Record Data --->
<cfset record =
application.reactor.createRecord("exampleTable").load(FORM.recordNumber)>
<cfoutput>
<table>
<cfloop index="I" from="1" to="#arrayLen(fieldNames)#>
<tr>
<td>#fieldnames[i].alias#</td>
<td>
HERE'S
WHERE I'M STUCK: #record["get" & fieldname[i].name & "()"]#
</td>
</tr>
</cfloop>
</table>
</cfoutput>
Now, I'd like to loop over fieldNames and create a table with the field name
in the left column, and the data in the right column, but I don't know how
to dynamically call the getFieldName(). With a query it would simply be:
record[fieldname[i].name][currentrow]. I'm sure this is a
common issue. Have I overlooked a Reactor function that deals with this?
What's the recommended practice?
Thanks,
Dan
