LISTTOARRAY |
Description Copies the elements of a list to an array.
Returns An array
Category Array functions, Conversion functions, List functions
Function syntax
    ListToArray(list [, delimiters ])
See also ArrayToList; Chapter 5, "Using Arrays and Structures," in ColdFusion MX Developer's Guide
Parameters
Usage ColdFusion ignores empty list elements; thus, the list "a,b,c,,,d" has four elements. ColdFusion treats each character in the delimiters parameter as a separate delimiter. Therefore, if the parameter is ",+" ColdFusion will break the list at either a comma or a plus sign.
Example
    <h3>ListToArray Example</h3>
    <!--- Find a list of users who wrote messages --->
    <cfquery name = "GetMessageUser" datasource = "cfdocexamples">
    SELECT Username, Subject, Posted
    FROM  Messages
    </cfquery>
    <cfset myList = ValueList(GetMessageUser.UserName)>
    <p>My list is a list with <cfoutput>#ListLen(myList)#</cfoutput>
     elements.
    <cfset myArrayList = ListToArray(myList)>
    <p>My array list is an array with <cfoutput>#ArrayLen(myArrayList)#
     </cfoutput> elements.
