New Structure Declaration in ColdFusion 10

In ColdFusion 10 a new structure declaration type is introduced.  This is very similar to JavaScript Object declaration and it is as follows:

	<cfscript>
	//New Type Structure declaration introduced in ColdFusion 10
	request.employee = {
	name: "Upendra Roul",
	ID: "06-800",
	JobTitle: "ColdFusion Developer"
	};
	writeDump(request.employee);
	//If you want to make the structure keys case sensitive then put them
	//in double cote or single cote as below
	request.employeeCaseSensitive = {
	"Name": "Upendra Roul",
	"ID": "06-800",
	"JobTitle": "ColdFusion Developer"
	};
	writeDump(request.employeeCaseSensitive);
	</cfscript>

Here we are using colon as separator between key and value rather than '='. Above I have mentioned keys as case sensitive. This means not case sensitive to ColdFusion but other technology like JavaScript.(If we are returning this structure by any AJAX call)
