You could add a key to the structure that contains a unique ID... <cfset aStructure.uuid = CreateUUID()> <CFWDDX ACTION="CFML2WDDX" INPUT=#AStructure# OUTPUT="AWddx">

Hi all, I need to get a simple string value that will uniquely identify a given structure, currently what I am using is this... <CFWDDX ACTION="CFML2WDDX" INPUT=#AStructure# OUTPUT="AWddx"> <CFSET aKey = Hash(AWddx)> which produces exactly what I want, but my problem is that this happens several times per request and thus it is potentially a bottle neck (even if wddx is fast, the structure in question could possibly be large). Does anybody have any better ideas on how to accomplish this ? --- James Sleeman --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).
