@Brian, there is a reason and method to the madness!
@Matt, that solution won't work for this particular case because I know
functionOne() will certainly define 1 named argument, but what that argument
name is I won't know. So to adjust the test case:
How can I rewrite this code:
<cfinvoke method="functionOne" argument1="123" returnvariable="ReturnValue"
/>
So that ReturnValue equals 123 regardless of whether functionOne is written
like this:
<cffunction name="functionOne">
<cfargument name="SomeRandomNameThatICanNeverKnow" />
<cfreturn arguments.SomeRandomNameThatICanNeverKnow /> </cffunction>
or like this:
<cffunction name="functionOne">
<cfargument name="XYZ" />
<cfreturn arguments.XYZ /> </cffunction>
Another way of phrasing the question would be:
Is there a way to pass unnamed arguments using cfinvoke?
For the record, Dan Wilson (http://nodans.com) helped me come up with a
solution without using cfinvoke, but by dynamically invoking a function
using script:
// dynamic function name
FunctionName='FunctionOne';
// save the function object itself to a variable
FunctionObject=variables[FunctionName];
// invoke it
FunctionObject('123');
You will notice that if I invoke the function using the preceding syntax, I
get the same result regardless of how functionOne() is defined (of the two
options I specified earlier).
Cheers,
Baz
