Question

cfqueryparam, caching and a pleasant surprise in 8, is it real?

I wanted to make sure my assumptions are correct,

I have a cfc that runs a rather complicated query, the first time it runs it it can take almost a second, but caching obviously makes it run very fast. The query uses cfqueryparams for the 3 inputs that are variable. I would imagine the caching wouldn't really work because the inputs are changing all the time, but having put two function calls side by side, with different inputs, they BOTH run extremely fast. Can coldfusion 8 cache 2 queries with the same name (var scope in cfc) and DIFFERENT cfqueryparam inputs? If so, that is awesome

Thanks in advance!

Oddly, this and a few other blogs say the livedocs were revised to say you can

http://www.chapter31.com/2007/10/31/coldfusion-8-can-now-use-cacheaftercachewithin-when-using-cfqueryparams/

I dont see the "revision" as they say on the docs anymore. I would think my app would error out if it were true in CF8 that you couldn't combine them, furthermore it would update my data as soon as I change it, but instead it takes a few minutes (the amount of time I used in CreateTimeSpan()). Maybe the livedocs need to be clarified?

According to livedocs you cannot use cachedWithin or cachedAfter with

cfqueryparam so the answer is No.

I think you're hitting another cache: database system cache, operating

system cache, etc
