Hire Me! I'm currently looking for my next role in developer relations and advocacy. If you've got
an open role and think I'd be a fit, please reach out. You can also find me
on LinkedIn.
A ColdFusion user pinged me today with an odd problem. Whenever he was inside a CFC method (err, his code) and he called a private CFC method, he would get an access error. I asked him how we was calling his methods, and he said:
<cfset foo = this.someMethod()>
The problem is the use of "this." It is not needed when calling methods in the same CFC. You can simply do:
<cfset foo = someMethod()>
You can also use cfinvoke if you want.
So I'm pretty sure I posted this in the past, but I've seen it a few times recently so I hope folks don't mind the recyling.
