Hi-
Is it better to use cfinvoke to dynamically call a method on a CFC or to use
the Evaluate() function?
E.g.
Approach A:
<cfset obj = CreateObject('component', 'foobar').init()>
<cfset FunctioName = "getName">
<cfset foo = Evaluate("obj.#FunctionName#()")>
-- OR --
Approach B:
<cfset FunctioName = "getName">
<cfinvoke component="foobar" method=#FunctionName# returnvariable="foo" />
Other than that Approach A takes an extra line to instantiate the object, is
it better overall to use cfinvoke? One advantage that Approach A has for our
needs is that we are potentially running this in a loop, so we can create
the object once and then put it in a cache struct and re-use it in a
subsequent loop call, whereas cfinvoke just calls it in a one-off fashion.
Any ideas? (Dont say use ColdSpring...)
Thanks
/Cody
