Category
History
ColdFusion (2018 release): Introduced named parameters.
Function syntax
ListLast(list [, delimiters, includeEmptyFields ])See also
ListGetAt, ListFirst; Lists in Data types- Developing guide in the Developing ColdFusion Applications
Parameters
Parameter | Description |
includeEmptyFields | Optional. Set to yes to include empty values. |
list | A list or a variable that contains a list. |
delimiters | A string or a variable that contains one. Characters that separate list elements. The default value is comma. If this parameter contains more than one character, ColdFusion processes each occurrence of each character as a delimiter; you cannot specify a multicharacter delimiter. |
Usage
If you use list functions on strings that separated by a delimiter character and a space, a returned list element might contain a leading space; use the trim function to remove leading and trailing spaces from a returned element. For example, consider this list:
<cfset myList = "one hundred, two hundred, three hundred">To get a value from this list, use the trim function to remove the space before the returned value:
<cfset MyValue = #trim(ListLast(myList)#>With this usage, the MyValue variable gets the value "three hundred", not " three hundred", and spaces within a list element are preserved.ColdFusion ignores empty list elements; thus, the list "a,b,c,,,d" has four elements.
Example
<cfscript>
myList="Tokyo,Bangkok,Jakarta,Manila,Bangalore,Shanghai";
WriteOutput(ListLast(myList)); //Returns the last element in the list, Shanghai
</cfscript>Output
Shanghai
