Yep,
What I am referring to is that you can dynamically set the return type ie
<cfunction name="init" returnType="#dynamicReturnType#" />
or
<cfunction name="init" returnType="#getMetaData(this).Name#" />
They will both fail.
The return type must be specified at compile time ie
<cfunction name="init" returnType="demoCompoent" />
