Does anyone have a "struct merge" util function have lying around? I'm looking for a function that merges two structs (recursively).

Can you provide the expected result struct too please?

haven't used it, but might try https://cflib.org/udf/structBlend

It's just two lines of code. You will see how simple it is if you assign each entity to a variable.

// Given

struct1.lorem.ipsum={};

arr1=["",struct1];

struct2={"bar":arr1};

struct3={"foo":[struct2]};

//writedump(struct3);

struct4.bar.foo={};

arr2=[struct4];

struct5={"lorem":arr2};

struct6={"foo":[struct5]};

//writedump(struct6);

// Your result implies you wish

// to append struct2 and struct5

structAppend(struct2,struct5,true)

// The combined (or, as you say, "merged") result

combinedStruct={"foo":[struct2]};

writedump(combinedStruct);

Example input:

Instead of passing us a picture of it being dumped, can you post the code that created it. This helps us reproduce the situation without having to type it ourselves. This applies to any situation, not just this one. A picture of code / its output / error messages is seldom the best primary way of sharing such information. Text. Start with text that can be copy and pasted and reused.

Good point @Adam Cameron, I'll try to remember it in case of a next question. I apologize for the inconvience.

I would probably have given the team something like this: https://trycf.com/gist/b27b639772071b3868c6a78ad14b5f45/lucee5?theme=monokai

Yes, that would be an acceptable action for that case.

Here's a starting point: https://trycf.com/gist/e1fbafcabf6c08b20edde2b5341bd078/lucee5?theme=monokai Largely untested other than that one case, but you get the general idea.
