Just wondering if anyone knows of a setting on CF2021 that prevents access to Static variables? We have an object with a a static () in it, and this works fine via CommandBox, but not on the actual server

SomeObject::staticVarName = getStuffFromDB(datasourceParams);

Illegal access to package variable

I think this is "illegal" because

getStuffFromDB

is not static. Also, with static, you have to use the component-name, not "some object" instantiated from the component. That is, something like

// here getStuffFromDB is a static method of the component

varName = ComponentName::getStuffFromDB(datasourceParams);

In case anyone ever finds this, it was due to public/private not being specified for the static variable - the syntax is otherwise fine

static {
        public statusNames = {
            "A": "Test 1",
            "B": "Test 2",
            "C": "Test 3"
            
        }
