Re: cfscript: optional arguments in function calling
I would rather have the method(s) hanlde the logic than the excution code pass optional arguments. myCFC.myMethod(form); Let the method handle all the checking and call other methods if needed.

Re: cfscript: optional arguments in function calling
Don't forget you can use argumentCollection to dynamically pass attributes to a CFC method or UDF. That would let you use cfscript if you want to. argumentCollection for CFCs/UDFs works the same as attributeCollection for custom tags.

Re: cfscript: optional arguments in function calling
if you are the one writing the code in the methods, saying what is optional, just make a cfparam of the optionals with the default set in the method. Then pass all arguments in.

cfscript: optional arguments in function calling
Hi, I usually prefer CFScript over CF TAGs since it's more concise. However sometimes TAGs seem better at that, e.g.: TAGs version: CFScript version: if (structKeyExists(form,"myOptionalParam")) myCFC.myMethod( myRequiredParam = form.myRequiredParam, myOptionalParam = form.myOptionalParam, ); else myCFC.myMethod( myRequiredParam = form.myRequiredParam, ); As you can see, I am forced to write two calls to the same method in the CFScript version, while I can simply use CFIF in the TAGs version to include the optional method in the call (only if the optional variable exists). As you can imagine, when there are a lot of optional arguments, I need to duplicate a lot of code with CFScript. Is there a better way of handling optional arguments in function calling with CFscript?
