Issues clearing application scope

[Jay B]

I am setting a variable in application.cfc

    <cfif isdefined("application.Portcullis") eq false>
            <cfset application.Portcullis = createObject("component","cfc.Portcullis").init()/>
     </cfif>

In OnRequestStart I have

    <cfif structKeyExists(url,'reinit')>
            <cfset OnApplicationStart() />
    </cfif>

So if I add ?reinit=1 to the url the application should restart.

If I make changes to the component, and do a ?reinit=1 -most- of the time, this seems to work but some times the only way I can get the changes to take effect is to restart the service

I have Inspect Template set to Always, I clear the object cache. I've even tried deleting the cfc from the server to try throw an error but it doesn't even do that...sometimes.

Any thoughts on why this might be? It's very frustrating.

Maybe add a call to onApplicationEnd() before onApplicationStart() in your reinit block?

I'll give that a try...Thanks

so to clarify, your test and assignment of Application.Portcullis is done inside Application's onApplicationStart(), right?  your original post does not indicate that.

If you want to restart yer app, you really should restart yer app, not just call the event handler which runs when the app starts.

Doing things this way is kinda like thinking calling a JS onclick event handler will make your actual mouse button depress.

To restart the app... run applicationStop(). On the next request the application will completely restart properly.
