how to call function in another controller?

[mrjayviper]

maybe best explained with an example:

functionX inisde controller2.cfc returns JSON via renderwith. At the moment, I am calling functionX via an HTTP request.

I want to call/invoke functionX/controller2 inside controller1.cfc. I know I can use an HTTP request to do it but I'm wondering if there's a way to do without resorting to that.

Thanks!

If you want to use a function in more than one controller I would move that function to /global/functions.cfm or into Controller.cfc as the other controllers extend this.
