scope of a component instance

[DomTrix]

I have a cfc, with some member variables and methods. I create an instance of it in application.cfm cos I need it to be application wide, I declare it like so:

<cfif not isdefined('request.myObject)>
	<cfobject name="request.myObject" component="components.myObject">
</cfif>

This works fine, the object is instantiated. However, whenever a page is refreshed or a new link in the site is visited, the object seems to be deleted as the above code in application.cfm is called everytime.

I dont want this to happen!

Any ideas?

thanks in advance,

DT

Fool noob I am, learned how the request scope and application.cfm worked in the process tho lol.

Making the object a session variable done it.

No such thing as a "fool noob". don't be so hard on yourself.

Good luck.
