Learning CF9: Why Don't My Comment-Based Attributes Work?

Posted on October 22, 2009 at 6:08 PM in ColdFusion

If you're like me, you absolutely love CF9's new script-based CFCs. I recently re-worked a very simple class and went from 111 lines of code in my old tag-based version down to 66 lines of code in the new all-script version. Nice!

@ Andy - Thanks for the link. I am not sure how I feel about using this style for attribute/metadata settings. On the one hand, it is technically not actually a comment, but rather a very specific form of notation. On the other hand, an IDE (correctly) styles it as a comment. The one thing I do know is that I loathe the idea of mixing script syntax with foo="bar" syntax (although I may end up using it anyways). Like everything else, I suppose my likes/dislikes and coding habits will evolve over time.
