dump

[Gavin Baumanis]

Hi Everyone,

I am currently consolidating some skills for Scala.

And one thing I really miss from the CF world is the ability to "dump" dynamic structures / objects etc.

Is there any possibility of spinning out of Lucee, "dump" functionality into a jar - that could then be used elsewhere?

Perhaps its not even technically possibly - it might just bee too intrinsically tied into the Lucee service / CFML...

But I thought I would at least ask!

Ps. I am loving Lucee and look forward to a stable relase of the new version!

As always - thanks in advance!

Gavin.

Gavin,

I'm not sure what you mean by "dump" objects. 

if you mean to inspect the values of an object while debugging, then use

    <cfdump var="#object#">

or the script version

    dump(object);

if you mean to store the object somewhere so that it could be loaded later, then use the built in function

    serialized = serialize(object);

which will create a string that you can store in a file, database, etc.; then the object can be "retrieved" by calling

    obj = evaluate(serialized);

if you meant something completely different please clarify.

I think he's wanting to know if the Lucee dump functionality can be exported from Lucee into a separate jar so he can use it in Scala.

Thanks for the lain english version - exactly what I was meaning!

This is maybe possible in Lucee 5 IMHO. There you can call CFML functionality from Java and that could perhaps then work with Scala too

The first thing I did when I had to do php (thankfully that was 10 years ago), was a dump function myself. Best write one yourself, remember the Lucee impl is a component, that means scala not only need to be able to know components it also need to be able to execute components... That is for sure a overhead for this task.
