It's marked for GC, and eventually gets collected. Effectively as far as the app's concerned it's gone immediately. > But, if I want to destroy the object, how do I do that?

To delete just that one item: <cfset structDelete(session,'myUserObject') /> However, I usually have a "isLoggedIn" property on the user object (with a default value of false) and do this: <cfset session.myUserObject = createObject('component','path.to.User').init() /> That way the user object still exists, but in recreating it you are resetting all the props to their default values, with the significant one here being isLoggedIn = false. -Cameron -- Cameron Childress Sumo Consulting Inc http://www.sumoc.com --- cell: 678.637.5072 aim: cameroncf email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from this list, manage your profile @ http://www.acfug.org?fa=login.edituserform For more info, see http://www.acfug.org/mailinglists Archive @ http://www.mail-archive.com/discussion%40acfug.org/ List hosted by http://www.fusionlink.com -------------------------------------------------------------
