In the online article first point:
<cfcomponent displayname="shoppingCart">
<cffunction name="init" access="public" output="no" returntype="struct">
<cfargument name="cartID" type="UUID" required="yes">
...
</cfcomponent>
Should the returntype not rather be "shoppingCart" ie.
returntype="shoppingCart" - rather than struct.... From the 6.1 docs is
seems that this would be better?
Why would you store the cartID in the variables scope and not the this
scope? If I understand correctly the variables scope only lives for the
duration of the request/response event - but I seem to be wrong as the
article states that the variables scope lives as long as the object does....
Why then have a this scope and variables scope? - Is the variables scope a
place to rather put all private attributes that you do not want accessible
from other components?
Sincerely
Hardy
