Problem Description:
Scoped connection name is not working in Version 13, was working in 11. According to the docs [1] it must be possible to use scoped names, the docs suggest to use session or application (what doesn't work either).
[1] https://helpx.adobe.com/coldfusion/cfml-reference/coldfusion-tags/tags-f/cfftp-opening-and-closing-secure-ftp-server-connections.html
Steps to Reproduce:
<cfftp action="open" connection="variables.ftpConnection" server="ftp.server.ext" port="22" username="username" password="secret" secure="true" fingerprint="00:11:22:33" stoponerror="true">
<cfdump var="#cfftp#"> <!--- succeeded = yes --->
<cfdump var="#variables.ftpConnection#"> <!--- returns servername, port, username and timeout successfully --->
<cfftp connection="variables.ftpConnection" action="listdir" directory="/" name="qFiles">
<cfdump var="#qFiles#">
Actual Result:
The connection attribute you specified, 'variables.ftpConnection', is invalid or does not exist.
Expected Result:
a dump of files on the ftp server
Any Workarounds:
remove the scope, change variables.ftpConnection to just ftpConnection makes the code to work.
For components it would good if we could have it in the local scope.Attachments:
