When I assign a query variable to another query variable, does it make a copy or use a
reference (pointer)?
Specifically I have the following in a module:
I take the name of a query as an argument, and I want to use that query:
<cfset defquery=evaluate("caller.#attributes.defquery#")>
Is this making a copy of all the data, or just a reference to the original?
(BTW, why is it that none of the CF books discuss queries as a data type? It is a
perfectly valid data type to use as you need even if it has nothing to do with a
database. It has it's own strengths and weaknesses distinct from structures.)
