This is a problematic statement:

// When using argument collection in function declare

That's not what's going on. The code is not using the

argumentCollection

in the CFML sense - which is only a thing when calling a function - it's simply declaring a parameter called

argumentCollection

and it's defaulting it to all the value of all the arguments. So of course there's going to be recursion going on. It's the same as going

st = {}; st.key=st;

. It's also a really convoluted example. It can be simplified to:

function f(x, y=arguments){
    writeDump(arguments)
}

f(1)
