Hi,
I usually prefer CFScript over CF TAGs since it's more concise.
However sometimes TAGs seem better at that, e.g.:
TAGs version:
<cfinvoke component="#myCFC#" method="myMethod">
<cfinvokeargument name="myRequiredParam" value="#form.myRequiredParam#">
<cfif structKeyExists(form,"myOptionalParam")>
<cfinvokeargument name="myRequiredParam"
value="#form.myOptionalParam#">
</cfif>
</cfinvoke>
CFScript version:
if (structKeyExists(form,"myOptionalParam"))
myCFC.myMethod(
myRequiredParam = form.myRequiredParam,
myOptionalParam = form.myOptionalParam,
);
else
myCFC.myMethod(
myRequiredParam = form.myRequiredParam,
);
As you can see, I am forced to write two calls to the same method in
the CFScript version, while I can simply use CFIF in the TAGs version
to include the optional method in the call (only if the optional
variable exists).
As you can imagine, when there are a lot of optional arguments, I need
to duplicate a lot of code with CFScript.
Is there a better way of handling optional arguments in function
calling with CFscript?
Thanks in advance.
