In ColdFusion, an iterator is an object, which defines a sequence and a return value upon its termination. The iterator protocol defines a standard way to produce a sequence of values (either finite or infinite), and potentially a return value when all values have been generated.
ColdFusion Components can be made iterable and UDF's are used as iterators.
How to make a cfc iterable ?
If the CFC implements __iter__ function with no arguments it will be called to get the iterator instance. The iterable function can return array, String, query, function (like below) or a cfc which has a function named __next()__.
CFC as an iterator
// Iterator.cfc
component {
public any function __next__(previous, count){ // Follows Iteration Protocol as UDF
return {value: count+1, done: count > 11};
}
}
// Iterator.cfc
component {
public any function __next__(previous, count){ // Follows Iteration Protocol as UDF
return {value: count+1, done: count > 11};
}
}
// Iterator.cfc
component {
public any function __next__(previous, count){ // Follows Iteration Protocol as UDF
return {value: count+1, done: count > 11};
}
}
# cfcAsIterator.cfc
component {
public any function __iter__() {
return new Iterator();
}
}
# cfcAsIterator.cfc
component {
public any function __iter__() {
return new Iterator();
}
}
# cfcAsIterator.cfc
component {
public any function __iter__() {
return new Iterator();
}
}
// stringAsIterator.cfc
component{
public any function __iter__() {
str1="ColdFusion 2021";
str2="Project Stratus";
return [...str1,...str2];
}
}
// stringAsIterator.cfc
component{
public any function __iter__() {
str1="ColdFusion 2021";
str2="Project Stratus";
return [...str1,...str2];
}
}
// stringAsIterator.cfc
component{
public any function __iter__() {
str1="ColdFusion 2021";
str2="Project Stratus";
return [...str1,...str2];
}
}
UDF as iterator
// udfAsIterator.cfc
//Example using UDF as Iterator and CFC is the Iterable
component {
public any function __iter__() {
var startFrom = 100;
return function(previous, index){//Iterator UDF
return {"value": startFrom + index, "done": index > 9};
}
}
}
// udfAsIterator.cfc
//Example using UDF as Iterator and CFC is the Iterable
component {
public any function __iter__() {
var startFrom = 100;
return function(previous, index){//Iterator UDF
return {"value": startFrom + index, "done": index > 9};
}
}
}
// udfAsIterator.cfc
//Example using UDF as Iterator and CFC is the Iterable
component {
public any function __iter__() {
var startFrom = 100;
return function(previous, index){//Iterator UDF
return {"value": startFrom + index, "done": index > 9};
}
}
}
// udfAsIterator.cfm
