Howdy,
I am just curious how you might handle optional instances vars in
components. Lets say I have a dog cfc. It always has a weight, but as my
dog (a welsh corgi) can attest he has no tail. Therefore, a dog may or may
not have a tail. Does that mean that I just have an empty instance var?
Here is how I would currently write it. Then if the arguments were
available, I would use the setters individually? Is there a better way to
do it? Thanks much! ----Sorry for the short hand bellow.
<cfcomponent>
<cfset variables.weight = "" />
<cfset variables.tail = "" />
<cffunction init>
<cfargument name="weight"/>
<cfset setWeight(arguments.weight) />
</cffunction>
<cffunction setWeight>
</cffunction>
<cffunction getWeight>
</cffuction>
<cffuction setTail>
</cffuction>
<cffuction getTail>
</cffuction>
</cfcomponet>

P.S. Just in case you were wondering what a tail less dog looks like, here
you go! THEDUKE! (Just so everyone knows, I did not cut his tail off.....he
came form the rescue that way.)
