I have a similar issue but with an unusual twist. Here's my structure:

When I loop over the collection I want them output in the order they were created, ie unsorted (z, then a, then b). However, they always come out alphabetically in key order.

How can I get around this?

in the last stages of migrating to mx.

our menus are done with structs and now I am having a devil of a time getting them to sort as they did on 5.0.

it seems that there should be a StructKeySort of some type.

I haven't been able to figure out how the new struct is ordered....

any clues?

Re: StructKeyList

They say:
Returns struct keys in the order they are created, not in alphabetical order like in ColdFusion 5.
If you need sorted struct values or keys, you can use the StructSort and StructKeySort functions.

However, there is no StructKeySort function in CFMX.

Verify it yourself:

In CF5, Structures were alphabeticly sorted. Now, if I take a struct, and sort it using StructSort, and do a dump of the structure, ala:

Its in alphabetic order.

However, a structkeylist dumps it in REVERSE ALPHABETIC ORDER:

#structKeyList(somestructure)#

which gives:

Modify,Edit,Delete,test,Add

Thats not in the order I put them in the structure, nor in alphabetic order... What gives?

IsAuthenticated() is obselete, then why can I not have my own IsAuthenticated function? The code below errors out.

#isAuthenticated()#

I don't think the description about DeleteClientVariable() is
correct.
I have this code
DeleteClientVariable("client.somevar_not_exist")
returns Yes, or True all the time, not False as mentioned in this doc.

Please clarify, Macomedia

that function may not exist, but using structKeyList() with listSort() should help you out a little...

for example:

would become

and you should get the same results. This works in cf4.5 and above, not tested it in anything below cf4.5

There is not StrucKeySort function, and StructKeyList does not return the keys in the order they are created.
