By named parameters. <cfset result = obj.testmethod(argument1 = 0, argument2 = 1, argument3 = 10) />
Offcourse the argument name has to match the name in the method. > <cfif arguments.arg neq "">do this</cfif> > Firstly is it a good idea to do this in a CFC? Not sure what to answer here, I know in OOP it's a bad thing to have switches and if's in a method. Maybe your better off creating another method? It's a shame we can't overload methods like in Java :-( -- Taco Fleur Senior Web Systems Engineer http://www.webassociates.com -----Original Message----- From: Paul Wilson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, 1 December 2004 9:20 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: CFC required arguments I'm using createObject to invoke a CFC and one of the methods in the CFC takes a number of arguments, all numeric but not all required. In the CFC I have some conditional statements that do various things based on the arguments passed in. <cfif arguments.arg neq "">do this</cfif> Firstly is it a good idea to do this in a CFC? And secondly, how can I pass is the only the arguments required .e.g. <cfset result = obj.testmethod(0,1, ,10) The third argument is not required but this will throw an error. This situation doesn't arise when you use cfinvoke as you can simply miss out the cfinvokeargument tag.
