Ray,
I agree that you've probably done this before. It's all over in the Spectra
code when variables are copied to the Server scope (not a structure as far
as I know).
We have had problems with the duplicate() function as well. With all the
newest updates (SP 2 and the cfserver.exe replacement), the function works
fine for copying structures and arrays. It even works fine for small
queries, but when you try to duplicate() large queries, you will often get
very low-level errors.
We've got some code that pretty consistently creates the error with
duplicate() and queries. Ray, if you email David Aden directly, he can send
it to you.
As a solution to the problem, you can use WDDX to copy the query reliably:
<!--- serialize, deserialize and output --->
<cfwddx action="cfml2wddx" input="#request.q_all_files#" output="temp">
<cfwddx action="wddx2cfml" input="#temp#" output="caller.#request.r_query#">
This is similar to the code the cfa_deepcopy used with Spectra 1.0 on CF 4.5
or earlier. Because we copy large queries frequently, one of the first
things we do when installing Spectra is replace the code in cfa_deepcopy
that uses duplicate() with the WDDX alternative. It's a little slower, but
it won't generate errors.
HTH,
Jason
