Not if any value has a comma in it. You can use other delimiters, but then you just have a different problem.

Arrays are easy as you can simply use Arraytolist() to convert it to a delimited text string and then use ListtoArray() to convert back once you get it out.

Re: Storing Arrays or Structures in a database
Keep in mind that WDDX adds quite a bit of extra stuff around your data as compared to JSON. For example, take this ColdFusion array: cfset myArray = [John,Paul,George,Ringo] Here is the serialized JSON version: [John,Paul,George,Ringo] Here is the WDDX version: wddxPacket version='1.0'header/dataarray length='4'stringJohn/stringstringPaul/stringstringGeorge/stringstringRingo/string/array/data/wddxPacket The larger the array or structure, the bigger the bloat from WDDX, and the more database space required to store it. This needs to be considered when designing your database columns. HTH, Carl On 4/6/2011 10:52 AM, Michael Grant wrote: Serialize them as JSON or WDDX and store them as text.

Re: Storing Arrays or Structures in a database
Another way to do it is to serialize the object in a base64 string.
I've had some great success using this method to persist complex
objects to the database.
cfscript
function serializeObject(object){
var local = structNew();
local.byteOut = createObject(java, java.io.ByteArrayOutputStream);
local.byteOut.init();
local.objOut= createObject(java, java.io.ObjectOutputStream);
local.objOut.init(local.byteOut);
local.objOut.writeObject(arguments.object);
local.objOut.close();
return toBase64(local.byteOut.toByteArray());
}
function deserializeObject(objectString){
var local = structNew();
local.inputStream = createObject(java,
java.io.ByteArrayInputStream);
local.objIn = createObject(java, java.io.ObjectInputStream);
local.returnObj = ;
local.inputStream.init(toBinary(arguments.objectString));
local.objIn.init(local.inputStream);
local.returnObj = local.objIn.readObject();
local.objIn.close();
return local.returnObj;
}
/cfscript
I've been using this in http://sessionswap.riaforge.org/ for a long time.

Just make sure that your db field can handle a decent sized chunk of data,
