Nopers. Daniel has an <cffunction name="cf_abort"> in his CFC. See his
previous posts in the thread.

Rex,
I think cf_abort is a custom tag, not a UDF, so it would not be called
using cf_abort().

yes, but to call cf_abort, you want to do cf_abort()
It's like calling #now# instead of #now()#

ok, it looks like the cf_dump() is working. If I put a <cfabort> inside
it's function. I tried following the cf_dump() with a cf_abort for it's own
function, but that didn't do the abort and I didn't see the dump (which should
even display without the abort), but once I put the <cfabort> inside the
cf_dump function, I saw the output.
thank you everyone for your help.

ok, that's a thought that I hadn't considered. I moved them inside the brackets
and now I don't receive an error. Thank you!
Unfortunately, I also don't receive the dump or the abort. I even built an array
to dump to simplify the test and assure that there's dumpable data. <sigh>

you have cf_abort in your code instead of cf_abort()

Looks like the issue is that you have the cf_dump() and cf_abort() calls
outside of the curly braces.
if ( // all those items )
{
// stuff here
}
cf_dump(dbResult);
cf_abort();
else
// other stuff
You need to move those two items inside of the }.

In this case, it is reporting loosely. If I comment out the cf_abort, there is
no error. So it has a problem with the cf_abort. That being a problem, messes
with the next line, the "else". Since the else is part of the IF, it complains
about the whole IF. Really, it's complaining about the cf_abort, like it doesn't
know what it is.
However, the IF is several hundred lines long. Here's the relevant part up to
the 'else' that works fine with the cf_abort commented out:
if (len(arguments.inStruct.a_agent_first_name) gt 0 OR
len(arguments.inStruct.a_agent_middle_initial) gt 0 OR
len(arguments.inStruct.a_agent_last_name) gt 0 OR
len(arguments.inStruct.a_agent_firm_ein) gt 0 OR
len(arguments.inStruct.a_agent_firm_name) gt 0 OR
len(arguments.inStruct.a_agent_phone) gt 0 OR
len(arguments.inStruct.a_agent_phone_ext) gt 0 OR
len(arguments.inStruct.a_agent_address_1) gt 0 OR
len(arguments.inStruct.a_agent_address_2) gt 0 OR
len(arguments.inStruct.a_agent_city) gt 0 OR
len(arguments.inStruct.a_agent_state_id) gt 0 OR
len(arguments.inStruct.a_agent_province) gt 0 OR
len(arguments.inStruct.a_agent_country_id) gt 0 OR
len(arguments.inStruct.a_agent_postal_code) gt 0 OR
len(arguments.inStruct.a_agent_email) gt 0)
{
dbResult = request.oEmployer.Ins_Agent_Tbl(arguments.inStruct);
if (dbResult eq "0,")
request.inStruct.l_agent_id = listGetAt(dbResult,2);
else
request.inStruct.l_agent_id = "";
}
//cf_dump(dbResult);
cf_abort;
else
request.inStruct.l_agent_id = "";

The error code mentions Line 63 as the start of an if () statement, and
Line 52 as the start of the <cfscript> tag. We'll need probably the entire
if () block at the least, as it would seem the issue lies in there.
Hard to speculate based solely upon the error message, as CF is notorious
for providing rather cryptic error messages which often send one off
chasing ghosts.

I didn't think reposting was a good idea, since there was a thread with a
relevant history.
I'm using CF7.
I posted the relevant code: part of the component, the cfabort/dump code, and my
call. Is there more code that you would like?

First off, this is a nearly 4 year old thread. It may or may not apply to
what you're working on now.
What CFML engine and version are you using?
What is the relevant code?

To clarify, I receive an error when these function calls are used and no error
when they're commented out.

I added this to my component, but I'm getting an error while calling it from
within the component.
<cfcomponent hint="Replaces The Package PK_employer">
<cffunction name="cf_abort" output="false" returntype="void">
<cfabort />
</cffunction>
<cffunction name="cf_dump" output="false" returntype="void">
<cfargument name="objToDump" type="any" required="false" default="" />
<cfdump var="#arguments.objToDump#" />
</cffunction>
Then further down, I call the cf_dump, like
cf_dump(dbResult);
How do I implement this correctly?
Thank you for your assistance.

default="true">
<cfargument name="label" type="string" required="false" default="">
<cfdump var="#arguments.var#" expand="#arguments.expand#"
label="#arguments.label#">
</cffunction>
<cfscript>
aArray = ArrayNew(1);
aArray[3] = 'fooey';
dump(aArray);
</cfscript>

Depending on where you are in the script it could be as simple as ending the
cfscript then putting in a cfdump and then beginning the cfscript again. I
often debug small problems within cfscripts by using writeoutput functions
for the values on if statements and other things of that nature. I suppose
you could create a function that simple dumps out whatever you fed it so
that you could put inline dumps.

hi,
when debugging with coldfusion tags i use the cfoutput and cfdump tags alot but
how can i use these tags and the cfabort tag within cfscript, or how can i get
the same effect as these tags?
