Hi David,
Yes, the tmpAddress variable is var scoped at the top of the method. I
tried your suggestion of re-initializing the struct with each iteration,
but it did not change the results.
I've been doing some more testing and have found that, if I serialize the
entire result to JSON prior to returning the data to the calling client,
that the structures inside the array are populated properly. So the issue
is when passing the results back as a CF struct. Again though, this is only
if the CFC is called as a webservice, it works fine when called directly
from a CF template. Quite odd.
