event
. If no event is detected as an incoming variable, the framework will look in the configuration directives for the DefaultEvent
and use that instead. If you did not set a DefaultEvent
setting then the framework will use the following convention for you: main.index
event
variable name by updating the EventName
setting in your coldbox
configuration directive.main.index
index()
String.getLength(),
but without the parentheses. Once the event variable is set and detected by the framework, the framework will tokenize the event string to retrieve the CFC and action call to validate it against the internal registry of registered events. It then continues to instantiate the event handler CFC or retrieve it from cache, finally executing the event handler's action method.
