In Application.cfc I have

this.name = "myApplication"

How do I access this? I thought it was:

application.name

: the key in the application scope is the same as the property in the pseudo-constructor of Application.cfc. And dumping

getApplicationSettings()

: seemingly agrees with me. (see screenshot) But when I dump the application scope there is NOT a "name" key. If I try to output

application.name

I get an exception that the key NAME does not exist. Dumping the application scope shows that the value I set in Application.cfc as

this.name

is available to me in the

applicationname

key, instead. Has it always been

application.applicationName

? Thanks!

It should be in the application scope. Try dump(application)

@gavinbaumanis i didn't know the answer either but I found some thing I found interesting This adobe page specifically states the application name is stored in

application.applicationName

There is also a function called

getApplicationMetadata()

which can be used to retrieve all the settings specified in application.cfc
