I'm attempting to instantiate a component in the init() method of a base
component so it will be available to the child components, like so:
<cfcomponent displayname="Content" hint="I am a unit or block of content">
<cffunction name="init" access="public" returntype="Content">
....
<cfset variables.display = createObject('component','Display') />
<cfreturn this />
</cffunction>
variables.display shows up in the dump for the content object with all it's
methods intact - so far so good. But when i try and access a method within
variables.display from a child component as below, i get an error:
<cfcomponent extends="Content" displayname="Text" hint="I am a unit of
text">
<cffunction name="getContent" access="public">
....
<cfset myText = variables.display.text(arguments.thisText) />
....
Element DISPLAY is undefined in a Java object of type class
[Ljava.lang.String; referenced as
If i instantiate Display in the child component of Content, it works fine.
Should i be able to do this? How?
