As far as I know, CF doesn't have a built in "instanceOf" operator or method. The way to get around this might be to have a public property for objects Ex.:
SESSION.CurrentUser.InstanceOf() Which would return, as a string, something like "manager" or "worker". .......................

Manager and Worker extend User. I would like to be able to test whether an instantiated object is a Worker or a Manager. Something like <cfif isObjectType(#session.currentUser#, #ttComponents.Manager#)> But I don't know what "isObjectType" is really called :) Can I do this or do I need isWorker and isManager functions in my classes?
