Hey... someone from Adobe (forget who the docs person is). You do not mention
invokeImplicitAccessor
on https://helpx.adobe.com/coldfusion/cfml-reference/coldfusion-tags/tags-c/cfcomponent.html. In fact the only place you seem to mention it is on https://helpx.adobe.com/coldfusion/cfml-reference/coldfusion-functions/functions-e-g/getapplicationmetadata.html. And even then you don't mention it in a useful way.
(according to https://cfdocs.org/cfcomponent it was added in CF2016)
Ah I see a reference to it here: https://helpx.adobe.com/coldfusion/developing-applications/building-blocks-of-coldfu[…]ng-and-using-coldfusion-components/cfc-implicit-notation.html Including code that was clearly lifted from something I wrote, as it's got my son's name in the example code...
@Mark Takata (Adobe) not sure it's hugely ideal to be lifting other ppl's work, changing it a bit, and claiming it as yer own (which is what's happening given Adobe has their own (c) notice on the bottom of that page), and there's no indication it's not actually Adobe's own work. It might fall within "fair use" but a large part of that page is someone else's work, Not Adobe's,

@saghosh can you please look into this?

Thanks a lot Adam. Is it okay, if we use your code in the future, and we'll attribute that to you? Let me know.

My code: it's fine. But as a policy you oughtn't be reusing copyrighted / licensed code. Because, like, you're breaking the law. You get that, right? Breaking the law is bad. Even if I'm just some dick dev/blogger. It's not that I care about you reusing my code per-se, it's the general practice of not respecting copyright and licensing that you need to address.
