By referencing thisTag.generatedContent, you could possibly do what you
want.
This is taking the following for granted:
1) Start tag is <cf_myTag>
2) Body of tag is [in between start and end]
3) End tag is </cf_myTag>
By setting thisTag.generatedContent to "" i.e: Nothing, then what you
have in between will not be written out. That doesnt mean it wont be
executed though.
I would set an attribute to determine when you need to output and when
not to.
Therefore:
<cfparam name="attributes.executeBody" default="true">
<cfif thisTag.executionMode EQ "Start">
<!-------------Always skip cause generated content insnt available
until end of tag---------------------->
<cfelse>
Perform your work
<cfif NOT attributes.executeBody>
<cfset thisTag.generatedContent="">
</cfif>
</cfif>
holds through.
