Railo3 and HelperUDFs

This weekend, I installed Ubuntu Server on my development workstation
and Railo3. This is my first experience with Railo and I am learning.
So far, I like what I see. Previously, I ran ColdFusion 8 on my
development box with Vista as the operating system.

I did come across a small hiccup when running my application in this
new environment. In the previous environment, my helperUDF looked like
this:

<cfcomponent>
     ...
     <cffunction>
          ...
     </cffunction>
     .....
<cfcomponent>

When included in my layout with ColdBox's inludeUDF method, everything
worked as expected. This morning, in the new Railo3 environment, the
function was not found. I had to remove the <cfcomponent> tags from
the helperUDF. In hindsight, it was wrong or me to include the
cfcomponent tags to begin with. But, I thought this was strange that
CF8 never threw and error in the first place and I thought I would
take a moment to share with others.

Thanks,

Aaron,

You might want to post this in the Railo group and see if this is expected behavior or not.

I do not know per say.
