<cfset actor = createObject("component", "actor")>
<cfset actorMetaData = getMetaData(actor)>
<cfif structKeyExists(actorMetaData, "hint")>
<cfoutput>
#actorMetaData.hint#
</cfoutput>
</cfif>
Note that the "hint" key does not appear to exists if the hint attribute is
not defined. So, you'll have to check for its existance before attempting to
reference it. Seems like a bug to me, but that's the way it is. :)
