reReplace or replace that is the question
Well i had to play, these sort of things always have get my interests going. This starts in a post atalt.comp.lang.coldfusionwhere Drew asked - "I'm trying to take this value 0.85 and turn it into 85, or 1.35 and turn that into 135."
There were a few answers but two revolved around using reReplace() & replace(), and it was these which prompted me to see which would be best for the job.Well the results we quite good, though i also tested on CF4.52 - now this was amazing. Ok, heres test 1:
#loopTime#
and heres test 2
#loopTime#
| Test 1 | | Test 2 |
CF4.5 | CFMX | CF4.5 | CFMX |
1. | 5939 | 2223 | 4627 | 190 |
2. | 5887 | 2163 | 4737 | 200 |
3. | 5908 | 2153 | 4817 | 191 |
First thing, WOW how did we work with CF4.5.
Anyway as you can see that by not using the regex engine the CFMX the times drop by roughly 100%.
