Problem Description:
There seems to be an issue with empty statements and object literal notation (struct and probably array). We had some code that had an if() statement with a semi-colon after the if brackets, and weird behavior started occurring. It took forever to track the issue down to the semi-colon;
Steps to Reproduce:
<cfscript>
WriteDump({});;
WriteDump({});
</cfscript>
Actual Result:
Only one empty struct is output.
Expected Result:
Two empty structs should be output.
Any Workarounds:
Remove the "double" semi-colon after the first statement.
It's not limited to "double" semi-colons though.
if (foo == bar) {
// do something
};
causes the issue as well (note the semi-colon after the if brace).
